Bouygues Construction collaborates with ecologists and biodiversity experts
Bouygues Construction has undertaken a number of initiatives in the field, and has incorporated new technical expertise into the business. Ecosystem scientists work with staff to incorporate the biodiversity dimension into their plans. Alongside this, the Group works closely with organisations that are biodiversity experts, including the French nature protection organisation the LPO (www.lpo.fr) and the French biodiversity preservation organisation Noé (http://noe.org/).
“Reintroducing nature into the city is not just about answering an increasingly prominent social demand, it’s also about benefiting from a source of environmental services: managing rainwater, combatting the effects of heat islands and air pollution, pollination, kitchen gardens and so on.
Given that we are seeing the sixth major species extinction, the Mankind-Nature link needs to be reinforced more than ever! That’s why urban biodiversity is at the heart of our home-building projects, just as ecosystem preservation is at the heart of our infrastructure projects.”
