Brevifolia Consulting works with remote communities and funding institutions to support/manage innovative projects related to climate change mitigation & adaptation.

• Climate change mitigation

Mitigation means decreasing GHG emissions (and pollution in general) so that the climate can stabilize and endangered ecosystems can heal. Climate change mitigation projects typically involve fossil fuel (diesel/propane) displacement through low-carbon technologies (renewable energy or energy efficiency), and carbon capture through ecosystem remediation (e.g. planting trees, restoring grasslands and wetlands).

• Climate change adaptation

Climate (and local weather) is changing already. Because of climate systems inertia, about 2C of average warming are already set between now and ~2050. This warming will likely cause serious local impacts: to infrastructure, to our ways of life, possibly to our food supply. Climate change adaptation involves planning and preparing for these impacts.
