Jatropha Foundation
JatrophaFoundation is the prominent non-profit entity in the Western Hemisphere dedicated to sustainable and socially responsible Jatropha curcas bio-energy production systems throughout the developing world. Check out our news page for the latest international news pertaining to Jatropha curcas. Refer to our resources page for valuable information on Jatropha curcas; including US Congressional testimony pertaining to Jatropha by Jatropha Foundation Executive Director, Johanna Mendelson-Forman.
We are currently raising funds for, and sharing technical expertise with, local partners in developing countries interested in pursuing sustainable Jatropha curcas bio-fuel production. For information on current Jatropha Foundation projects, reference our programs page.
We believe Jatropha curcas is the ideal bio-energy source in developing economies to replace petroleum. Jatropha bio-energy is easily produced in disenfranchised and poorer regions without large capital investments, making it ideally suited to develop local and affordable energy solutions for developing economies in both rural and urban setting.
