The Atlantic Forest and the Cerrado are among the richest biomes on the planet, the first being the one with the greatest biodiversity and the second being the largest tropical savanna in the world. The Perene Institute, believing in the relevance of these biomes for the conservation of the planet's biodiversity, has placed the Atlantic Forest and the Cerrado at the center of initiatives to protect the environment. In these biomes are the cultural roots of those who founded the Instituto Perene, which strengthens the sense of belonging and protection that makes this pillar of action so strong.

The rudimentary wood stove is still used by 26.1% of the Brazilian population, sustaining a dynamic of ecosystem degradation due to the removal of firewood from nature and continuous damage to the health of those who use it. eco-efficient stoves, a transition technology for ideal cooking models, can make this reality more sustainable, respecting the entire sociocultural context that exists around the use of wood stoves in Brazil.
