In 1997 Paul Coffey
recognised the need to improve resource management in Australia through
the better use of resources and technology. C4ES
was set up as a result with the aim of forming links between
government and industry by developing practical approaches
based on the fundamental experience of staff to move towards
a more sustainable future.
The C4ES team draws on broad experience and skills
from agricultural science, engineering, environmental science and
education with a working background in both industry and
government to deliver effective outcomes for our clients.

WHAT WE BELIEVE
- Sustainability is not just reducing
waste and
pollutants, but improving our overall management and use and
ultimately longevity of resources

Government, Industry and the
Community
are all interconnected with the environment and have a role
to play in progressing towards a more
sustainable way of living
-
Outcomes need to balance
environmental,
financial and social factors in order to be sustainable
-
Broad stakeholder involvement
is a vital part
of achieving workable outcomes
