About the Project

Greenpeace Brazil’s web documentary entitled Here Comes the Sun is a project that explores the social, economic, and environmental benefits of solar energy through personal stories. Many lives have been transformed by solar energy. Here you will learn about people from different places, such as the Roberto Schutz School, the Maria da Paz settlement, the Popular Housing Complex of Paraíba, a community of the Mamirauá Sustainable Development Reserve and a condo complex of the government’s ‘My House, My Life’ project (Minha Casa, Minha Vida) located in Juazeiros.

The project also addresses the barriers for the development and use of Brazil’s solar energy potential. And it shows people who are acting in different ways so that the sun increasingly lights-up Brazil.
