Climate change is global but the effects are local

NIRAS has decades of experience in disciplines that are often considered crucial in adapting to climate change, e.g. coastal zone management, agricultural change management, water resource management as well as disaster preparedness and management.

Initiatives for climate change mitigation in developing countries often include energy saving measures, the use of renewable energy and carbon sequestration. Carbon trading (CDM) is a potential source of funding for mitigation projects. NIRAS has extensive international experience in providing consultancy services within these technical fields. 

We provide services within:

  • Climate change mitigation, e.g. Carbon trading, renewable energy, REDD
  • Climate change adaptation, e.g. disaster risk management, water resource management
  • Environmental Due Diligence including Valuation and Cost Benefit Analysis
  • Climate change planning
  • Capacity building, training, courses, seminars on climate change impact, adaptation and mitigation

"The countries most vulnerable are least able to protect themselves. They also contribute least to the global emission of greenhouse gases. Without action they will pay a high price for the action of others"
