Jackery Offers Solar Generators to Forest Workers

Jackery announced the company has joined a campaign through which it provided portable power stations for forest rangers, bringing brightness and warmth to the protectors of the eco-system as they dedicated their youth to safeguard the national environmental treasure that plays a crucial role in fighting climate change.

About 200 kilometers southwest of Kunming, the fourth largest city in Southwestern China, lies a large forest that coats Mopan Mountain with a thick layer of vegetation staying green all year around.

The virgin forest is blessed with rich natural resources, home to 98 families, 137 genera and 324 species of higher plants that shelter and nurture countless local wildlife.

The six forest rangers stationed in the area are the guardians of the 75-square-kilometre land who are tasked with ensuring the safety and health of the evergreen forest. It is not easy.

They need to trek 25 kilometers a day, spend over 10 hours to complete their daily tasks and carry out over 100 petrol missions each year.

When the night descends, they listen to the voice of nature and savor the breath of ancient woods but working in isolation coupled with poor signal coverage exposes them to potential risks, and loneliness is another biggest challenge of the job.

"We are glad to take this opportunity to extend our gratitude to the frontline workers who are toiling day and night to protect our natural sources and eco-system. They are not only providing secured habitats for wild animals but also making a great contribution to building a sustainable future. We also wish to bring more public attention to the efforts of forest rangers across the world in the future, calling on more people to provide help and care to these unsung heroes," said Head of Asia Pacific Affairs of Jackery.
