Environment

Environmental issues are raised across the board in all areas of the economy, from real estate and infrastructure projects to industrial and energy production, from transport to services, from business organisation to the development of blockchains. Climate change, international obligations regarding greenhouse gas emissions and the emissions market are factors that emphasise the topicality of these issues. Environmental sustainability is now central to the design of public policies at state and transnational level.
