网曝吃瓜黑料一区二区三区 has joined the an organization bringing together researchers, practitioners and academics to drive alignment between nature and engineering.
Through collaboration, education, real-world application and the setting up of transdisciplinary research teams, the network strives to deliver economic, environmental and social benefits by utilizing natural infrastructure.
We鈥檝e already worked with key members of the network for several years, collaborating on projects like the rebuilding of the Tyndall Air Force Base in the aftermath of Hurricane Michael. With the US Army Corps of Engineers, we also jointly developed the publication Engineering With Nature庐 .
Joining the network as a partner organization will allow us to collaborate across the industry, understand best practice and lessons learned, as well as identify opportunities for internships and mentoring.
鈥淛oining the network is an opportunity for us to further embed nature and natural systems thinking throughout all our projects. It provides us with the opportunity to learn from industry leaders and share the challenges and opportunities we鈥檙e all facing in this space,鈥 says 网曝吃瓜黑料一区二区三区 Global Principal, Regenerative and Nature-Based Solutions, Chris Allen. 鈥淲e have a responsibility to restore and protect the world鈥檚 natural capital, while continuing to support economic and social development.鈥
Elsewhere in the world we've been collaborating with other partners to drive nature positive outcomes. As part of the U.K.'s Council for Sustainable Business鈥 campaign, we authored the Building and Infrastructure: Design chapter of the .
Climate response at 网曝吃瓜黑料一区二区三区
Joining the network aligns with our climate commitments detailed in our Climate Action Plan, including targeting every project as a climate response opportunity, achieving net-zero greenhouse gas emissions across the value chain by 2040, and maintaining carbon neutrality status and 100% low-carbon electricity for our operations (which we achieved in 2020).
We also support our clients with climate response, one of the growth accelerators within our strategy. This aligns positive societal impact with long-term business growth, and delivering significant value for our clients through sustainable, integrated, end-to-end solutions.

ReportHow Can We Use Nature and Data to Help Solve our Environmental, Climate and Affordability Crises?
Solving our environmental, climate and affordability trilemma requires bringing together two factors that could be considered opposing ends of the spectrum: sustainable nature-based approaches and cutting-edge data- and technology-enabled solutions. This paper defines the trilemma and the impacts on the CSOs challenge, then discusses the art of the possible for these novel approaches and the potential regulatory, societal and technological shifts required to empower these solutions.

NewsBridging the Gap Between Decarbonization, Net Zero through Nature-based Solutions
Net zero requires action in two directions. On the one side, organizations must work to significantly reduce the release of emissions. On the other, they must support the removal of continued emissions from the atmosphere once decarbonization measures have been implemented. Nature-based solutions 鈥 also known as natural climate solutions - have a significant role to play in achieving net zero, spanning both emission reductions and removals.
