Leap Environmental

Today is World Soil Day, we handle soil daily, sampling it for contamination or assessing its quality for reuse. It’s a resource we need to look after, with over 95% of our food generated from soil. If you need advice on material management, please do not hesitate to get in touch

Leap have been supporting the mid sussex science week, a STEM event to support science and engineering in schools. With only 16.5% of engineers being women we have worked with a group of girls to design and build wind turbines this week. #EngineeringEquality #GirlsInSTEM

There is a need to optimise redevelopment to reduce the carbon footprint of the construction process without compromising the requirement for delivering a safe and suitable use of the site. ow.ly/58Aj50LrLU4 #carbonreduction #leapenvironmental #toolsforconstruction

Week 4 of Leap Sustainability Month is Getting Out in Nature. Our team put down their phones to go out and spend more time in nature appreciating the beauty. What is your favourite thing to do out in nature? #gettingoutinnature #sustainabilitymonth #leapenvironmental

Civil engineers and developers will benefit from a new tool designed by our LEAP team and the University of Surrey, designed to calculate carbon emissions from brownfield developments. ow.ly/Pttx50Lhvcq #carbonreduction #carbonemissions #CReDiT #leapenvironmental

Leap are presenting our CReDiT remediation carbon reduction tool at The Geological Society’s conference on “Climate Change and Sustainability, Impacts and Innovation in Contaminated Land” #carbonreduction #climatechange #innovation #geologicalsociety #geology #leapenvironmental

Week 3 of Leap Sustainability Month is food week. This week our team have been more conscious of the amount of food they are wasting and are trying to decrease this to zero. Tell us how you do it in the comments. #reducefoodwaste #foodweek #sustainabilitymonth #leapenvironmental

We received a highly commended award for our Carbon Reduction Design Tool (CreDiT). Congratulations to the winners and RSK Geosciences for their awards. #awards #innovation #BrownfieldAwards2022 #LeapEnvironmental #RSKGeosciences #toolsforconstruction

Week 2 of Leap sustainability month is plastics week. We have focused on reduction of single-use plastics. Tell us how you reduce your plastics consumption in the comments. #plasticsweek #sustainabilitymonth #savetheplanet #LeapEnvironmental

October is Leap Sustainability Month. Week 1 is ‘Spare the Air’ week, and our staff will be focusing on car sharing for commuter journeys to the office and combining visits to the sites we are working on. #sustainablitymonth #sustainability #carsharing #leapenvironmental
