Suzano Partners with Key Stakeholders to Launch 2026 “Green Life · Blue Future” Program, Empowering China’s Youth with Ecological Awareness

BEIJING, China, March 21, 2026 — Suzano, the world’s leading market pulp producer, today announced the launch of the 2026 “Green Life · Blue Future” Program in Beijing. Now in its fourth consecutive year, the initiative continues to inspire ecological awareness and sustainable values among children and teenagers across China through creative expression and hands-on learning.

Jointly initiated by the Center for Environmental Education and Communication of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, Suzano, COSCO Shipping Specialized Carriers, Yingfu Kids & Teens, and Kans Fund,  the program remains deeply aligned with the national directives including the Opinions of the CPC Central Committee and State Council on Comprehensively Advancing the Building of a Beautiful China and the Guiding Opinions on Further Strengthening the Construction of Ecological Culture. The kick-off event brought together representatives from government, the Brazilian Embassy in China, co-initiators, as well as teachers and students, underscoring a shared commitment to advancing environmental education nationwide.

The 2026 edition encourages youth to explore environmental themes through painting and bilingual public speaking, with this year’s creative projects centered on children’s hometowns and cities. Nature education activities including international nature education camps will continue to offer immersive experiences that deepen participants’ understanding of biodiversity and low-carbon lifestyles.

Beto Abreu, Global CEO of Suzano, commented:

“At Suzano, we believe nurturing children’s connection to nature is one of the most meaningful investments we can make for the future. Through creativity, education, and direct engagement with the environment, the ‘Green Life · Blue Future’ program empowers young people to understand their role in shaping a more sustainable world. We are honored to once again support this initiative and walk alongside China’s youth as they imagine and build a greener tomorrow.”

Since its inception in 2023, “Green Life · Blue Future” has grown significantly in both scale and impact. In 2025 alone, the program reached 135 cities, collected more than 50,000 artworks, and positively impacted 2.31 million families across China. These achievements reflect the program’s growing momentum and provide a solid foundation for the expanded 2026 edition.
