Sustainability
Our Approach
Imagine a world where everyone has access to clean water, clean food, and clean air. This is not the world we live in today. ecoSPEARS has developed and commercialized innovative technologies for toxic land and waterways requiring revitalization, to serve communities in need of a second chance at a sustainable, healthy, and better life. Our technologies will permanently remove PCBs and other legacy toxins from land and waterways while remaining protective of human health, wildlife, and the environment – all without using harmful chemicals or creating hazardous by-products. Access to clean water, food, and air will determine the sustainability of our future.
We can be the first generation to end extreme poverty, the most determined generation in history to end injustice and inequality, and the last generation threatened by climate change.
If not now, then when? If not us, then who?
In support of the United Nations'
Sustainable Development Goals
In 2019, ecoSPEARS joined the United Nations' PCB Elimination Network (PEN) to assist the Network in meeting its 2028 deadline to eliminate PCB oil stockpiles worldwide. This goal is tied to the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) set forth by the Stockholm Convention and subsequently adapted by the United Nations (U.N.). In conjunction with the U.N., ecoSPEARS is committed to assisting in meeting the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development by adhering its core business practices to the success metrics of the following SDGs: SDG 3 (Good Health and Well Being), SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation), SDG 14 (Life Below Water), and SDG 13 (Climate Action).
"PCBs and dioxins are disease-causing toxins impacting millions of people worldwide. According to the United Nations, 90 years later, PCBs are still among the most widespread contaminants globally. We are on a mission to deliver much-needed climate-friendly cleanup solutions." said Ian Doromal, EVP and Co-founder of ecoSPEARS.
