Celebrating Environmental Stewardship
Environmental stewardship is what Earth Day is all about. For more ways to practice environmental stewardship, visit EPA's Earth Day site.
Environmental stewardship is the responsibility for environmental quality shared by all those whose actions affect the environment.
In 2005, EPA laid out a vision for environmental stewardship recognizing it as a means to a more sustainable future. While all of EPA’s work supports environmental stewardship in some way, users can search here for some of the programs and resources that may be of most interest.
