The first Yukon State of the Environment Report presents a portrait of the Yukon environment, including baseline data, emerging environmental problems and cumulative effects. Annual reports will add to and refine this picture and help us monitor environmental change in our part of the Canadian North. Information for this report comes from government and research reports and files, and from discussions with many Yukoners who have particular knowledge about aspects of the environment and human activities. First Nation elders provided a long-term view of the Yukon environment, its value and its sustainability.
This Web site presents a specially designed overview of the original report, which was published in February 1996 by the governments of Canada and Yukon. You can choose either English or French. We also have some background information about state of the environment reporting.
