“There is no silver bullet. There are lots of bullets.
Fire them!”

Patrick Oliva used these words to describe the necessary technological response to environmental challenges, at the highly successful first IRF "Roads & the Environment" Conference in Geneva, February 5-6

Under the Presidency of Jean Beauverd (Colas Switzerland) more than 140 experts and professionals debated the issues. The event had been given topicality by the latest IPCC report - particularly by study of the effects of man-made CO2 and methane emissions.

"I congratulate you on the IRF Conference quality... I found it useful to be exposed to major private companies' perspectives and advanced initiatives..." Maryvonne Plessis-Fraissard, World Bank, Washington D.C.
