Environment / Health: Measurable Impacts for Sustainable Development
Industrial development, while helping to improve general well-being, generates pollutants that can harm ecosystems and human health. Environmental and health considerations should thus be incorporated in the process as early as possible to ensure greater sustainability.
Transportation: Breathing fresh life into urban mobility
Buses often suffer from an old-fashioned image and although investment and operating costs are relatively low, the possibilities buses offer are currently underused in urban public transportation systems.
Networks and buildings: Inventing a new quality of life
The most highly industrialized countries have become aware of the challenges involved in energy and environmental efficiency in the construction sector. According to the International Energy Agency, this sector represents two-thirds of the solution for reducing greenhouse gases by a factor of four by 2050.
Energy issues: Turning all our energy toward efficiency
In a context of increasingly scarce fossil fuel reserves, rising energy needs and efforts to fight climate change, energy has become a major concern in political, financial and environmental terms all across the globe.
Bioresources: Waste, a mine of resources
The term "bioresources" encompasses various types of biomass that can be converted either to energy or to fertilizing matter such as compost and fertilizer: waste wood, fuel crops and the organic fraction of solid and liquid waste (farm and agrifood waste, treatment plant sludge and the organic fraction of municipal solid waste).
Waste collection, sorting and recovery: Optimizing the Recycling Cycle
To counter the buildup of refuse from human activities and growing natural resource scarcity, it is essential to fully harness the energy and material potential of waste.
Wastewater: Developing new uses for wastewater
The field of municipal and industrial wastewater treatment is on the threshold of a transformation. Treatment standards are increasingly stringent to prevent risks to human health and the environment, particularly in terms of emerging pollutants and greenhouse gas emissions.
Drinking Water: A highly protected resource
The drinking water supplier must guarantee consumers have access to a continuous supply of safe and good quality water at an affordable price. Veolia Environnement has also set itself the target of meeting human's water needs in a sustainable manner.
