Then, in the environmental pillar, Auto2000 collaborates with MSMEs to cultivate aloe vera. This plant was chosen because it can be made into drinks and a business for the residents.

Lastly is the development of MSMEs in the form of mentoring and training for local residents to start businesses. The training provided is not only on how to make the products, but also includes bookkeeping, promotion, and other supporting activities to increase sales.
