Biodiversity: developing while preserving life

Engineering has a vital role to play in combating this decline by fully integrating the preservation and restoration of living organisms throughout the design and construction of developments and facilities. Given the fundamental services that nature provides us with every moment (known as ecosystem services), this is not just an ethical issue, but one that concerns the balance and preservation of our societies and economies.

Between traffic growth and environmental imperatives, what transformations for airports?

Connecting continents and ensuring rapid domestic connections: these are the main advantages of air transport. In the current context of climate and environmental change, however, this mode of transport is being criticized for its greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, its elitist nature and the recreational dimension of some of its flights: pressures that are prompting it to undergo major transformations.
