Why Latin America?
Latin America is a massively growing economic region, and this coupled with the rich diversity of its natural environment, including the Amazonas, means that the region is an ideal place to deliver related services. Some of the major considerations are:
• Many countries in the region have legislation that promotes the development, construction and operation of projects that benefit the environment
• Countries within the region have, as a ‘national priority’, areas such as renewable energy, sustainable development projects and waste management alternatives and offer fiscal and non fiscal incentives
• Most of the countries in the region are signatories to the Kyoto Protocol
• Energy demand in the region on average is growing 10% annually
• Medium and small municipalities in the selected countries do not have proper technology for waste management
• The pollution of land and water is growing and water scarcity are growing problems
• Foreign investment in natural resources is increasing. Thus, the need for consulting services in clean development, energy efficiency, CO2 related projects, etc. is growing
• Many countries within the region have legislation that promotes the manufacturing and use of biofuels
