Environmental policy and legislation address a wide range of issues, including air and water pollution, climate change mitigation and adaptation, biodiversity conservation, and sustainable resource management. One of the most important pieces of environmental legislation in the United States is the National Environmental Policy Act, which requires federal agencies to consider the environmental impact of their actions and to involve the public in decision-making processes. Other major environmental acts and regulations in the US include the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, and the Endangered Species Act. International environmental agreements, such as the Paris Agreement, provide a framework for global efforts to address environmental challenges. In addition to legal frameworks, voluntary initiatives and certification schemes, such as the Forest Stewardship Council, provide market-based incentives for companies to adopt sustainable practices.
