While making continual improvement in its environmental performance, FAO has sealed the commitment to be a good environmental steward by launching its Corporate Environmental Responsibil ity Policy on the occasion of the 2016 World Environment Day. The Policy applies to FAO headquarters and decentralized offices and provides criteria for the management of environmental risks related to internal operational areas .
