Environmental protection

Environmental Protection's services include mitigating and adapting to climate change, strengthening biodiversity and preventing environmental pollution. We offer environmental education services at Nature House Villa Elfvik. We also serve as experts in matters relating to water systems.

Environmental matters in Espoo are governed by the Environment and Building Control Committee. The Environment and Building Control Department is the municipal authority of environmental protection and conservation in Espoo. On 1 August 2021, the former Environment Department was merged into the Environment and Building Control Department, which comprises environmental protection, environmental health care and building control services
