General Reference 3 of 5
"The NRTEE, legislated by Parliament in 1994, explains and promotes sustainable development. Working with stakeholders across Canada, the NRTEE identifies key issues with both environmental and economic implications, examines these implications and suggests how to balance economic prosperity with environmental preservation.
Our activities are organized into programs; each is overseen by a task force of NRTEE members and representatives from business, government and non-profit organizations. The responsible task force commissions research, conducts national consultations, reports on agreements and disagreements, and recommends how to promote sustainability. The NRTEE reviews these reports and recommendations before approving them for public release. The NRTEE members meet quarterly to review progress, establish future priorities and start new programs."
