Environment & climate
It is extremely important for us to understand our environment, how human activities may affect it, and how we can reduce the damage. Environmental problems are often complex, having many interacting parts and stakeholders. Below are a few of the interesting and important models created to help illuminate issues around climate change.
Rehab for a river ecosystem
Rivers tamed by artificial channels, dikes, and levees to reduce flooding, often damage habitats. Researchers created IRRM to find the best way to rehabilitate river ecosystems.
Is bike sharing good for your health?
City bike share programs are popular methods of improving health, but with increased injury risks and exposure to pollutants, do they actually have a positive effect on health?
What is “green”? How does a buyer know?
Analytica helps organizations compare the environmental costs of the products they need, so they can consider the environmental footprint of their buying decisions.
