About SDGMinimize

SDG Consulting is an environmental consultancy specialising in air quality and climate change science that was formalised in 2008, although the consultancy has been active in other forms since 2004. The principal member of SDG is Simon Gear who has been active in South African environmental science circles for a decade.

The consultancy has as its primary focus interaction with players across the South African energy landscape with current projects including clients in the coal mining, renewable energy, technology and governmental sectors. In addition to SDG’s work in the air quality sector, the company is a major player in the environmental media world, having recently been nominated in the Environmental Journalism section of the Mail and Guardian Green Awards.

This stemmed from work with Primedia where Simon Gear is the media group’s environmental correspondent.

Simon Gear is considered a thought leader in the fields of environmental management and climate change response and is frequently requested to speak at conferences and events related energy policy and the planets future.
