As concerned citizens of the global community, we must recognize and live within environmental limits. Future generations will survive only if we maintain the delicate balance of our planet through thoughtful stewardship of its natural resources. With the world's population exceeding 7.5 billion, the need to conserve these essential elements is increasingly critical. Becoming more environmentally efficient helps us better manage our shrinking water supply, clean the air we breathe, reduce our carbon footprint, and protect our biodiversity.
