Pioneering Report Sets the Course for Nature-positive Engineering in Coastal and Marine Environments

PIONEERING REPORT SETS THE COURSE FOR NATURE-POSITIVE ENGINEERING IN COASTAL AND MARINE ENVIRONMENTS

A global engineering coalition has issued an urgent call to action to solve the climate crisis through ecology-inclusive engineering frameworks. The Foresight of Nature-Positive Engineering, a new report from Lloyd’s Register Foundation in partnership with the International Coalition for Sustainable Infrastructure (ICSI), sets out the blueprint for nature-positive engineering (NPE) in ports, offshore renewable energy, and coastal protection. Biodiversity is declining faster than at any time in human history, with extinction rates 100 to 1,000 times higher than the past ten million years.
