Our environmental services practice stresses the use of market-based incentives, enhanced management systems, and careful audit protocols to help enterprises reduce environmental and social impacts. We offer solutions in environmental services, natural resource management, and climate change by combining cross-cutting services such as trade facilitation, conformity assessment, governance, gender assessment, and finance. Our record in sustainable agribusinesses and forestry is complemented by our service offerings in water and coastal zone management and responsible tourism.
- Climate Change Adaptation and Mitigation: Through an understanding of local, regional, global contexts, we provide public and private sector clients with adaptive strategies for climate variability and its consequences. Our expertise ranges from the development of a global food security early warning system that allows governments to adapt to climate change to community and industrial-based certification systems that promote carbon sequestration credits.
- Environmental Management: Our initiatives promote improved regulatory environmental compliance and conformity to voluntary systems through the promotion of sector specific conformity assessment systems. These systems provide environmental impact and auditing support while actively supporting clean production and pollution prevention technologies in numerous sectors, including agrifood, energy and water utilities, mining, manufacturing, and tourism.
- Natural Resource Management: We pioneer market-based conservation solutions anchored in careful science and proven tools that ensure community and other stakeholder participation. To ensure the shared equity of resources, we facilitate public and private sector collaboration in terrestrial and marine settings.
- Environmental Competitiveness: Chemonics routinely strengthens the strategic business case for sustainability. By using a management system approach to systematically incorporate the costs of water, waste, and energy across the value chain, we encourage conservation and bottom-line efficiency. This also helps our projects and clients identify and comply with applicable environmental and labor regulations. We carefully blend these cost advantages and regulatory requirements with marketplace demands to meet quality, environmental, and social standards through internal auditing and third-party conformity assessment as a fundamental business practice. Reducing costs, conforming to market standards, and complying with legal obligations create an essential business platform for competitive enterprises.
