The Role of Odour Assessment Consultants in Environmental Planning

When it comes to urban development and environmental planning, odour management is often an overlooked yet critical component. The expertise of odour assessment consultants plays a pivotal role in ensuring that projects align with environmental standards and maintain community wellbeing.

Environmental odour consultants specialize in identifying, evaluating, and mitigating odour issues associated with industrial, agricultural, and commercial operations. Their expertise helps project planners understand the potential impact of odours on nearby communities and the environment.

An odour assessment is an essential step in the planning process, especially for industries such as waste management, food processing, and agriculture. The assessment involves monitoring odour levels, identifying sources, and modeling the dispersion of odours under various conditions. By conducting an odour assessment for planning purposes, consultants can provide valuable data that helps stakeholders make informed decisions, ensuring compliance with regulations and avoiding conflicts with local communities.

One key benefit of involving environmental odour consultants early in the planning process is the ability to design odour control strategies that integrate seamlessly into the project. Whether through technological solutions, such as advanced filtration systems, or operational changes, these measures reduce the risk of odour-related complaints and enhance overall project sustainability.

Incorporating odour assessment into environmental planning demonstrates a commitment to responsible development. It not only protects the environment but also fosters positive relationships with communities. With their specialized skills and tools, odour assessment consultants provide an invaluable service, ensuring that projects meet regulatory requirements and contribute to a healthier, more sustainable future.

By prioritizing odour management in your planning process, you can pave the way for successful, community-friendly projects while upholding environmental stewardship.

A message from Dacotah Rousseau, Managing Director, Down to Earth Markets: I am pleased to share our second-ever impact report with you, covering the work that Down to Earth Markets did in 2023. Last year we started this reporting initiative to better express our values as a mission-driven B Corp and certified NY Benefit Corporation. As a small company in a niche field, it also gives us an opportunity to pull back from the busy life of a farmers market manager to look at the big picture. Like cleaning the dirty panes of a large window, stepping back allows us to see the effect we are having, and it can be satisfying, inspiring and challenging (sometimes frustrating) all at the same time. The change is measurable but there’s always a lot more to do. When we shift perspective from the tasks at hand to the larger view we can also take in the vista beyond our window. Out there are things we don’t control but that we want to understand, and that can influence and inform our work. This Impact Report delivers to you, a stakeholder in our farmers markets and a stakeholder in the food system, an explanation of what we do, how we do it and why we do it. There are few clear boundaries when we start to think about all the ways in which food, its production, acquisition and enjoyment, weaves through our lives, but we focus on a few significant areas of impact:

The food growers and makers, whose success is at the core of our mission

The communities where we have our farmers markets

The environment, which registers our impact from seed to table

We call you a stakeholder because, whoever and wherever you are, where our food comes from and how it’s made is significant to your bigger picture. Even if you are not selling your food through our markets, buying your groceries from our vendors, or otherwise directly connected to Down to Earth’s operations, what we do to build the local food system here in the New York City area has ripple effects.    In our 2023 Impact Report we share some of the data collected by the U.S. Department of Agriculture in their 2022 Census of Agriculture, a survey of American farms conducted every five years. This includes everything from the tiniest plots of land hosting market gardens to the biggest monoculture farms fueling America’s cars with corn ethanol. Our dip into the report looks at the state of New York’s farms specifically. What you learn may surprise you if your mental image of the American farm is of a massive combine working endless corn fields, or concentrated animal feeding operations in factory-like buildings. The food you see when you look down at your plate also comes from a complex and often overlooked segment of the food system that depends on small scale farmers to play their role. This isn’t simply a question of knowing where our food comes from. How small-scale farmers are doing makes a difference to the variety of food crops available in the world, the environmental impact of farming, our dependence on global food shipping and the availability of food in times of crisis, even the nutritional value of the food we eat. We all need our small farms to survive and thrive, but even though the need is obvious the outcomes are not. There has to be a place where small-scale farmers and food makers can sell their products at a fair price that allows them to cover their expenses and plan for the future. Shaping the food system requires making a market. Read on to learn about the difference Down to Earth’s work made in 2023 and how your support helps us hold space for the farmers and food makers we rely on to feed us delicious things and to keep our food system healthy and whole. -Dacotah

Marine Environmental Impact Evaluation: Protecting Ocean Ecosystems

People are doing more and more things that affect the marine world, significantly affecting ocean communities. A marine environmental impact assessment (MEIA) is essential for figuring out how planned projects might affect marine ecosystems and species. An MEIA helps people decide how to protect the ocean's health by finding, predicting, and controlling the environmental effects.

What Is a Marine Environmental Impact Evaluation?

A MEIA is a planned study of how human actions affect the environment, mainly in coastal and offshore areas. It includes examining things like the state of the water, the places where marine species live, and possible sources of pollution. The MEIA's results help shape laws and ensure that growth projects follow environmentally friendly methods. It also helps protect materials in the ocean.

The Role of ESG Certification in Marine Projects

Companies that want to show they care about environmental, social, and government issues need to get ESG certification. This certification ensures that marine project creators and owners use environmentally friendly methods, helping them leave less of an impact on the environment. ESG guidelines address a wide range of topics, such as reducing pollution, protecting resources, and having an effect on the community. Certification not only shows that a company is responsible, but it also builds trust among partners, investors, and the public.

Addressing Climate Change with a Focus on Greenhouse Gases

Climate change greenhouse gases released by human activity, significantly threatens the marine environment. Gases like carbon dioxide and methane keep heat in the atmosphere, warming the world. Some of the problems that climate change causes are rising sea temperatures, more acidic oceans, and changes in where marine species live. To protect coastal environments, we need to stop releasing greenhouse gases. Healthy seas are significant for keeping the climate stable because they take in a lot of carbon dioxide.

Ensuring a Sustainable Future for Marine Environments

More people are becoming aware of problems with the sea environment, which shows how important it is to do MEIAs, get ESG certification, and cut down on greenhouse gas emissions. These steps all help to handle ocean resources sustainably. They want to protect sea life for people who come after them. By investing in good practices, businesses and governments can help the marine environment be healthy and more resilient.

Conclusion Protecting marine ecosystems requires action against climate change greenhouse gases. Cutting down on pollution helps keep the seas from getting too warm and acidic, which protects biodiversity and keeps marine life alive. Industries can help make the marine environment more secure by using MEIAs. They can help reach global warming goals and ensure our oceans' bright futures. We are here to help you negotiate the complexity of sustainability if you are seeking thorough sustainability solutions to enable your company to have a positive environmental effect.
