Description
Climate Change Consulting 2019
Redefining Climate Change Consulting for the 2020s
CCBJ estimates climate change industry consulting services at $4.6 billion of revenue in 2018 in the United States, and another $17 billion in climate change industry engineering, construction and contracting for a total of more than $20 billion. What was a disparate group of mostly niche services has now become a legitimate category of still somewhat disconnected, but increasingly harmonized suite of services. The analysis presented in this segment review, and on the tables and charts in the PDF file and accompanying dataset, demonstrates multiple perspectives on Climate Change Consulting and the business segments and sub-segments as CCBJ defines them. Climate Change Business Journal estimates Adaptation & Resilience at $650 million in 2018 and Mitigation & Compliance at $940 million, but these are just the core services of Climate Change Consulting.
