Environment

We offer solutions through Environmental Technologies to monitor, model and conserve the natural environment and resources and to curb the negative impacts of human involvement.

We provide circular economy models to eliminate waste by designing products, processes, and systems that are regenerative, restorative, and reusable. By reusing and recycling materials, reducing waste, and promoting sustainable production and consumption, we can reduce the environmental impacts of industry and improve the sustainability of our products and services.

We design green infrastructure to help reduce the urban heat effect, to improve air and water quality, and to provide important ecosystem services. By incorporating green infrastructure into urban planning and design, we can create more sustainable and livable cities.

We contribute to the conservation and restoration of natural ecosystems to help protect and restore biodiversity, and natural resources such as water and soil.

Our key principles:

• Sustainability: We strongly support the sustainable use of natural resources, meaning that it should be used in a way that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of the next generations to meet their own needs.
• Polluter pays principle: We argue that those who cause environmental damage or pollution should be responsible for paying for the restoration and rehabilitation costs.
• Equity: We contribute to the socially fair allocation of the benefits and costs of using natural resources among all members of society, including present and future generations.
• Precautionary principle: We foster the application of a precautionary approach to avoid or minimize negative impacts.
