Environmental Policy | Principles
- Utilization of the earth's natural resources is fundamental to the survival and prosperity of
any organism or society, including man and his activities.
- Removal of natural resources from one environment to utilization in another will impact both environments to some degree.
- Individuals as well as organizations of individuals should demonstrate respect for and concern with our environment.
- Man, in his ability to provide stewardship to the environment, should strive to minimize or
mitigate the impacts of resource utilization to the extent reasonably feasible.
- Sound science should be the basis of environmental impact evaluation and mitigation.
- Socioeconomic factors are a significant component of man's environment.
