Ecological consulting is the process of applying ecological principles to identify and mitigate the environmental impacts of human activities. This involves assessing the environmental effects of proposed projects, identifying potential environmental impacts, and developing strategies to minimize or mitigate those impacts. Ecological consultants work with a wide range of stakeholders, including developers, regulators, and community groups, to ensure that projects are environmentally sustainable and socially responsible.
