- Lowering our greenhouse gas emissions, conserving water, increasing tree canopy and protecting biodiversity
- Reducing our volume of waste through reduction, re-use and recycling waste products to ensure we provide the cleanest environment possible for our community and natural assets
- Delivering on our actions in place to ensure a sustainable natural environment so our future generations can thrive.
