Environmental and sustainability impact reports have become more common as brands look to both promote their progress and share detailed data and information on topics like carbon footprint and waste output.

The British Columbia government plans to spend $8.7 billion over three years on infrastructure as well as on supports for families and businesses to help build the economic recovery from Covid-19.
Finance Minister Selina Robinson said Tuesday the deficit for the 2021-22 budget is projected to be $9.7 billion, lower than the $13.6-billion forecast last December, due to higher-than-expected revenues and lower government spending.
