Environment and sustainability
The Earth's climate is changing at a rapid pace. The median temperature is rising with consequences for the human environment. The greenhouse effect means that it is necessary to reduce the emission of greenhouse gases. For that reason LFV has environment and sustainability high on the agenda.
