About This Cause

Stand Environmental Society (Canadian counterpart of Stand.earth) is working to create a world where respect for people and the environment comes first. We’re doing that by challenging corporations and governments to treat people and the environment with respect — because all our lives depend on it. Our campaigns challenge destructive corporate and governmental practices, demand accountability, and create solutions that protect the forests and the stable climate required to keep our planet – and us – thriving. As we’ve done since the start, we pursue audacious solutions, campaign for as long as it takes to see them through, punch way above our weight and treat everyone, including our adversaries, with respect. Our work has resulted in sweeping industry-wide changes and environmental protection on a massive scale. We hold governments and corporations accountable We have a proven track record of helping corporations and governments change their policies and behaviors to be inclusive, forward thinking, and responsible. Companies and governments are made up of people, and most people opt to do the right thing when encouraged to do so and see a pathway. We work with key individuals and groups within larger organizations to help them find their way towards more livable solutions and keep them accountable to their commitments. We use a variety of strategies, designed for maximum impact Different problems, agencies, and companies respond to different types of pressure. Our goal is not to fight, but to solve. Our breakthrough strategies leverage grassroots power, media, and the biggest names in business to transform the environmental practices and policies of governments and whole industries. And by the way, we’re relentless. When we fix our sights on an issue, we work tirelessly to bring about change. Stand Environmental Society collaborates with strategic partners to develop effective high-impact solutions for people, wild places, and our climate, and then we work for years, even decades, to implement them.
