Understanding the Issues

 

From the products we buy to the temperature at which our thermostats are set, the many choices we all make in our everyday lives have an impact on the environment. Many of our activities come at a cost to the climate, forests, biodiversity, local populations and water. We know it's important to stay informed about the issues so that we can identify steps to reduce our impact and leave what is known as a smaller environmental "footprint."

Current major environmental issues include:

Climate Change
Forestry, Biodiversity and Indigenous Peoples
Water
