Today we, at Earth-Active, celebrate our first year of operation with a small gathering of guests based in London. Also this day, the 17th October is United Nations Eradicate Poverty day, the 1st of the SDGs. Someone asked if there was a link between what we do as a company and poverty alleviation? Emphatically yes! There is a deep and unbreakable thread of social justice that runs through the policies, procedures, guidance notes, tools, and practices that shape our craft; Environmental and Social Governance. Used appropriately, these provide our staff with the tools to help clients shape projects in a sustainable way. The principles of the mitigation hierarchy, the precautionary approach, information disclosure, meaningful engagement, benefit-sharing, inclusion, and non-discrimination are the very fabric we must use; like all good craftspeople in our business; to help our clients shape projects that we can all be proud of and benefit from.
A very special day.
A very special day.
Wishing you all the kind of satisfaction and joy that we take from the work we’ve done so far. Mark King CEO
