Environmental stewardship

 

We’re renewing our focus on biodiversity through a long-term commitment to be “nature positive” as a company. This means going beyond avoiding impacts and having no net impact on the natural environment—instead, it requires investing in projects, environmental initiatives and research, and partnerships to restore biodiversity across ecosystems and habitats.

 

We’re committed to making this transition through specific initiatives that are cost-responsible and prioritize collaboration.

 

Environmental stewardship is essential to our business in many ways:

Land & habitat

We protect land and habitats, including conserving 140,000 acres of watershed lands in perpetuity, and we are exploring new partnerships to build more resilient forests and communities.

Water

Water remains a precious resource in California, and PG&E is committed to using it responsibly at our facilities and in our operations—and helping our customers do the same.

Air, waste & remediation

We are reducing waste from our facilities and operations, while also addressing environmental impacts from our historic operations in accordance with today’s regulatory standards.
