Steppe Ecosystem Restoration Project in Moldova,
Ukraine and Russia. Our project includes assessment of the
potential for carbon sequestration in humus-rich steppe soils, and
for sustainable agriculture under climate change
pressures
While arguments persist over the causes of climate change, its
effects are already with us world-wide. Mott MacDonald’s breadth of
skills and services and global reach makes us ideally qualified to
advise on how to respond to the challenges.
From the strategic planning for water resources in the UK, to the
development of climate change awareness programmes in the coastal
zone of Bangladesh, to delivering project finance from carbon
credits for a biomass power plant in Romania – we deliver complex
projects which need understanding of the drivers and impacts of
climate change, as well as expertise in engineering and project
management.
Issues related to climate change are becoming increasingly
integrated within our projects across all sectors. Our carbon
footprinting and energy efficiency experts are assisting with asset
management in the water, power, building and construction sectors,
while our geotechnical teams are researching ways of using ground
source heat exchangers to heat and cool buildings by exploiting the
thermal mass of foundations.
Our skills and services focus on two main areas:
