New Delhi, Jun 5 (PTI) Vedanta Aluminium on Wednesday said it has entered into a pact with IORA Ecological Solutions to implement nature-based solutions towards the conservation of biodiversity and natural resources in the vicinity of its operations.

Founded in 2009, IORA provides technical expertise in natural resource conservation, carbon forestry, climate change mitigation and adaptation.

These initiatives will be rolled out in the vicinity of the company's operations in Odisha and Chhattisgarh, enabling it to expand on-ground engagement with local communities and other stakeholders through organised forums and implement grassroots biodiversity and nature conservation practices.

"At Vedanta Aluminium, we are integrating sustainability into every aspect of our decision-making process, measuring success by the degree of positive socio-economic changes and environmental stewardship we achieve through our operations," company's CEO John Slaven said.
