Air quality is emerging as a significant worldwide issue for the decades ahead. International commitments aimed at dealing with climate change are putting considerable pressure on individual countries and their industrial communities. Local authorities are asking industrial plants, which are potentially responsible for pollution, to engage in regular and accurate monitoring and to cut emissions. For plant owners and operators, the challenge is not only to contribute positively to the environment through optimizing the production process but also to comply with a growing number of regulatory obligations.

Whether buying, selling or simply occupying land, private companies, landowners, property developers and members of the general public are all concerned by soil degradation and contamination. Measures have been taken in many countries to prevent soil degradation and ensure contaminated sites are cleaned up.
Companies must be aware of these measures and their environmental responsibilities if they are to comply with legislation, limit future liability and avoid adverse publicity.

To protect the environment, the European Union has adopted measures for Integrated Pollution Prevention & Control known as the IPPC Directive.
IPPC uses the Best Available Techniques (BAT) system to determine operating license conditions for industries whose facilities produce significant emissions.
About 50,000 industrial facilities throughout the European Union are concerned and are required to conform with the emission limit values.
This Directive presents a big challenge to today's businesses, as companies which do not comply with the regulations risk having their operating license revoked.

The Kyoto Protocol and recent EU directives are imposing new obligations on building and facility owners everywhere, in order to promote energy efficient buildings which can boost productivity, keep workplaces healthy, and have a more positive impact on the environment. Designing or retrofitting buildings to be energy-efficient can result in substantial reductions in operating costs, energy consumption and emissions of harmful greenhouse gases which contribute to climate change. However, to achieve energy efficiency in buildings, expert advice and assistance is essential.
