The 2010 Silicon Valley Environmental Indicators Report
The Silicon Valley Environmental Partnership (SVEP) has just released its 2010 Environmental Indicators Report, reflecting the overall environmental health of the Silicon Valley. These reports on local environmental conditions are intended to provide long-term monitoring and trend forecasts, and serve as a valuable tool for local municipalities, businesses, and citizens seeking to improve decision-making on environmental issues. There is no other index for the Silicon Valley region that focuses on environmental resources.
This year’s report includes 8 indicators covering key resource areas including energy and water use, air quality, public transit, toxics production, waste disposal and habitat protection.
