Sustainable Development

Our economy is dependent on a healthy environment. In the Cascadia Bioregion, we’re blessed with nature’s beauty and bounty. Comprehensive systems-thinking approaches to development will conserve resources and reduce wastes. We consider the life-cycle project costs as well as benefits that can be achieved by renovating existing structures or building new infrastructure.

Our civil engineers are experienced with low-impact site development and eco-friendly drainage systems. Ridolfi can help you to assess the feasibility of renewable energy, develop a zero waste program, design green infrastructure, or help you reduce your carbon footprint. Let’s work together to make the “Salmon Nation” more healthy.
