Through initiatives such as The Queen’s Commonwealth Canopy, the Royal Commonwealth Society works to protect one of the world’s most important natural habitats – forests. Since 2015, over 3,495,000 hectares have been protected for future generations. Similarly, through Commonwealth champions such as Lewis Pugh, UN Patron of Oceans, we advocate for the protection of the world’s oceans.
How the Commonwealth is helping to create a sustainable future
On protecting the environment, the Commonwealth affirm that ‘sustainable management of the natural environment is key to sustained human development.’
