Environment & climate

Environment & climate

LALIVE recognises the urgency of the climate crisis and the vital need to protect our natural world. We are committed to tracking, reducing and mitigating our impact on the environment. We strive for solutions to decrease our emissions, improve our resource efficiency and be environmentally sustainable.

This is reflected in our corporate membership and partnership with Zurich-based organisation myclimate to reduce the impact of the firm’s carbon emissions and invest in sustainability and climate protection projects. Through myclimate, we support:

  • A local Swiss project promoting climate-optimised forest management in the canton of Solothurn.
  • A Ugandan project to distribute water purification systems to low-income households and institutions like schools.

  • Principle 7: support a precautionary approach to environmental challenges
  • Principle 8: undertake initiatives to promote greater environmental responsibility
  • Principle 9: encourage the development and diffusion of environmentally friendly technologies
