Environmental Services
As development and infrastructure needs expand due to population growth, ecosystem protection activities are also increasing causing the natural commoditization of environmental assets (i.e., ecological attributes of land or the services natural ecosystems provide). Shaw offers sustainability solutions and natural resources practices to aid in the trade of ecological assets while helping businesses meet local and state regulatory compliance.
Our environmental services include the following:
- Water quality trading
- Wetland mitigation and conservation banking
- Identification of carbon business
- Carbon trading
- Ecosystem mitigation banking
