Five Step Action Plan

Introducing the five step action plan

The Environmental Partnerships program is like a stool: it only works if all legs are strong. Our five-step action plan to reduce human impact on the atmosphere goes like this:

1. Use fossil fuels more efficiently.
2. Switch to renewable fuels as quickly as possible.
3. Protect old-growth and new forests as carbon warehouses.
4. Harvest forests in a sustainable manner.
5. Plant millions of trees, especially on the barren lands of developing countries in the humid tropics.

There is no single solution to global warming and global climate change. We are leading the way in a holistic approach to addressing the world’s environmental, and therefore atmospheric, problems.

We can’t help ourselves just by doing less harm - we also need to do more good.
