We believe it is our responsibility as citizens of the earth to be concerned about the environment, sustainability, and population. We place special value on the unique heritage and landscape of the state of Utah. Utah Population and Environment Council works at the intersection of the environment and human population. UPEC studies, discusses and explores the myriad of stresses that an increasing population puts on the world in which we live. We understand the connections between population, finite resources, and the Quality of Life.
