The development of the EDF Group adaptation strategy started from the premise that the Earth’s climate is changing. The full range of impacts may not yet be fully understood, but the climatic evolution has started and mitigation measures will be, in the short term at least, insufficient to stop it. EDF Group devised an adaptation strategy that focuses on the principal challenges that lie ahead up to 2100. We assumed a range of plausible long-term climate and economic scenarios to create a description of the likely effects on natural systems and processes. more[...]

Océ has a long history of environmental awareness. The company was founded in 1877 in the south of the Netherlands by a chemist called Lodewijk van der Grinten, who invented a completely natural coloring agent for margarine so that everyone, not just the well-off, could enjoy something healthy and appetizing on their bread. Earlier that same year, Mr. van der Grinten had investigated the quality of drinking water at the pumps in the town where he lived and the quality of the flour used by local bakers for the local health authority. These innovative practices have been handed down throughout the history of Océ: This commitment to environmental and social responsibility that the Océ founding fathers demonstrated in the mid-19th century is just as strong today. more[...]
