Sustainability. Carbon neutrality

The systemic connection of forest fire prevention harvesting, biodiversity protection and biochar production offers a circular bio-economy model. The collected forest waste is processed in pyrolysis plants instead of open burning. (more…)

The circular economy today represents a major strategic business opportunity to expand the European market, secure significant economic returns and reduce our dependence on limited global resources. At the same time, it is (more…)

The biodiversity crisis and climate change are now inextricably linked. Climate change, with extreme droughts and heat waves, is significantly accelerating the destruction of the natural environment, particularly through devastating forest fires. On the other hand, the loss of (more…)

The climate crisis represents one of the most pressing challenges of our time. Organization Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) was created to enable companies and financial institutions around the world to play their part in the fight against global warming. SBTi (more…)

In an era of global urbanization, where cities consume three-quarters of natural resources and generate up to 80% of greenhouse gas emissions, food policy is becoming a strategic imperative for regional resilience. Local governments can no longer view food as just a (more…)

The transition to a carbon-neutral society is not only an urgent challenge but also an opportunity to build a safer future. The European Union has set itself, through the Paris Agreement and the European Green Deal, (more…)

Climate change and biodiversity loss are two of the biggest, yet deeply interconnected, crises facing our planet today. Climate change is directly accelerating the loss of natural habitats and wildlife. (more…)

Achieving the package's objectives Fit for 55 – reducing emissions by 55 % by 2030 and achieving net zero by 2050 – represents not only a technological challenge, but above all a profound structural imperative for the European labour market. Our modelling shows that (more…)

Transport is the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions in the European Union and has made little overall progress in reducing them sustainably in recent decades. While public and political attention is focused mainly on the electrification of vehicles themselves (more…)

The traditional mandate of central banks, which is to maintain price and financial stability, is inextricably linked to environmental sustainability in the 21st century. (more…)

The management of foreign exchange reserves of the National Bank of Slovakia (NBS) is strictly anchored in Act No. 566/1992 Coll., which imposes on the institution the obligation to manage foreign exchange values while respecting the rules of the Eurosystem. However, from the perspective of a quantitative strategist and risk manager, (more…)

Achieving climate neutrality by 2050 is not just an environmental commitment, but a critical strategic imperative for maintaining global industrial competitiveness. The transition to a net-zero economy requires a profound transformation (more…)

Europe has long been seen as the undisputed global leader in sustainable development policy. From the introduction of the first carbon market in 2005 to the adoption of the groundbreaking European Green Deal, (more…)

Modern armed conflicts and military activities bring horrors, especially in the form of human casualties and destroyed cities. But the silent and long-term sacrifice that we all share – our planet and its climate – is often forgotten. From the daily operation of military bases (more…)

The European Union has set itself a clear goal: to achieve climate neutrality by 2050 and to reduce net greenhouse gas emissions by 55 % by 2030 as part of the Fit-for-55 legislative package. This transition to a cleaner economy (more…)

The traditional linear model of "extract - produce - use - dispose" is reaching its limits. The European Union is therefore moving towards a circular economy through a comprehensive legislative framework. The aim is not only to better process waste, but also (more…)

Welcome to the world of modern and high-integrity climate solutions. The European Union has set itself a clear goal as part of the European Green Deal: to achieve climate neutrality by 2050 at the latest. To meet this ambition, we must not only radically reduce (more…)

The European Union has set itself a binding target under the European Climate Law to achieve climate neutrality by 2050 at the latest. Achieving this ambition requires not only a drastic reduction in greenhouse gas emissions, but also (more…)

Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council (EU) 2024/3012, adopted on 27 November 2024, represents a breakthrough in the European Union's drive to achieve climate neutrality by 2050. This voluntary framework for the certification of permanent carbon removal (more…)

In the current effort to mitigate climate change and achieve net zero emissions, carbon storage technologies are gaining prominence. Two of the most promising methods that harness the power of natural processes (more…)
