Natural Resources Initiative 

Business & Industry 

Welcome to the Business & Industry page.  The Natural Resources Initiative (NRI) is committed to working with business and business support organisations to enhance a more efficient and cost effective use of natural resources and encourage sustainable business practices.

The Hampshire & Isle of Wight Business Environment Forum along with NRI and the Environment Centre (tEC) is involved with the development of the Business website, Egeneration.  Egeneration is a resource website for the South East region, made up of separate local sites for each county as well as central modules on common themes of sustainable business practice.  

The Hampshire local site has recently been updated and covers various topics such as Local Programmes, Tools for Business and Sustainability Issues. 

For further information on specific themes, please follow the links below:
