Fynbos vegetation in the Cape, South
AfricaGrowing environmental awareness and alarm at the
loss of biological diversity has led over the past 30 years to a
number of global agreements aimed at halting the destruction of
flora and fauna habitat. We have become increasingly instrumental
in the design of strategies to preserve biodiversity, not least in
the recommendation of global environmental programmes. In
accordance with national and international conventions and
legislation, we ensure that all endangered and ‘at risk’ habitats
and species are considered throughout a project, from its
conception to its operation.
Our team of experienced environmental consultants - including
terrestrial, marine and freshwater ecologists -understand many of
the complex floral and faunal interactions and relationships within
the web of habitats found around the world, in climates ranging
from sub-polar regions to the equator.
We have been involved with a wide range of development projects
that have had implications for biodiversity:
- OT-GEP – We established the methodology for the funding of the
Overseas Territories Global Environment Programme, a key component
of which is to address the loss of island-nation biodiversity.
- The Alexandra birdwing – Our consultants drew up an action plan
to halt the destruction of Papua New Guinea’s rainforest to
preserve floral species required for the survival of the world’s
largest butterfly.
- Chapman’s Bay, South Africa – Management plan to preserve the
unique fynbos vegetation.
