Welcome to BioRegional | BioRegional: solutions for sustainability Summary Bioregional Development Group - developing market led projects to bring sustainability into the main stream.About Us
BioRegional Development Group is an entrepreneurial, independent environmental organisation. We develop award winning, commercially viable products and services which meet more of our everyday needs from local renewable and waste resources, to help enable
One Planet living living within our fair share of
the Earths resources.
Eco footprinting shows that if everyone in the world consumed as much as the average UK resident we would need 3 planets to support us.
BioRegional is demonstrating that it is possible to significantly reduce our ecological footprint in areas such as wood products, paper, textiles, food, transport and housing to a sustainable level and maintain a high quality of life.
The BioRegional approach is based on:
local resource availability: using local farmland, woodlands, renewable energy and
waste efficiently to meet more of our needs.
closing the loop: that is, recycling and reclaiming materials or using waste heat from industry.
appropriate scale technology: allowing us to use regional resources which reduces transport
and boosts the local economy.
network production: producing locally with centralised co-ordination and marketing.
fair trade: moving away from international
trade in damaging low-value commodities to
higher value, environmentally sound products.
developing environmental projects into commercial concerns that work in the real world.
In all of these ways we can reduce wasteful consumption. Local production and recycling reduces transport, fossil fuel use and CO2 emissions, and naturally encourages resource efficiency.
