Green Economy and Sustainable Development

'We underscore that green economy is not intended as a rigid set of rules but rather as a decision-making framework to foster integrated consideration of the three pillars of sustainable development in all relevant domains of public and private decision-making.'
The Future We Want Zero-draft of the outcome document Rio+20

For over twenty years, we have being dealing with issues related to the environment, sustainable development and green economy, on behalf of companies, organisations and associations.
