BankAmerica's environmental commitment extends throughout
the corporation, from recycling programs to credit
decisions. Our goals include improving our efforts
by learning from other organizations and by sharing
the successes and challenges of our environmental initiatives.
The Bank's programs and record are described
in our 1994, 1995, and 1996 Environmental Program Progress Reports.
We encourage your comments and contributions to these
environmental programs.
In this area on the environment, we cover two important topics:
The Recycled Paper Coalition, BankAmerica and other organizations' waste reduction, paper purchasing and paper recycling efforts show how to save natural resources and money.
We believe that effective land use requires a mix of intelligently planned expansion on the urban fringe and making better use of existing urban areas. Beyond Sprawl, a report co-authored by BankAmerica, raises the issue of how California should accommodate future growth. To this end, BankAmerica supports the Natural Communities Conservation Planning Process and Conservation Banking. Also discussed are innovative efforts to renew contaminated inner city land through Brownfields Redevelopment.Throughout the environment section, we offer links to World Wide Web pages of organizations with which we have worked or which offer valuable information on subjects we cover. Those organizations have interesting and innovative programs, and we invite you to explore their web sites as well as ours.
