The Commission on Resources and Environment (CORE) was given the legal responsibility in 1992 to develop a strategy for land use and related resource and environmental management. After two years of public consultation and research, the commission set out in this report and three companion volumes a provincial land use strategy, supported by a Sustainability Act. This report describes sustainability actions in B.C. from 1910 to the present and why a Sustainability Act is needed; the provincial land strategy to date, including current initiatives and public participation; and the development of the Sustainability Act. A glossary is included. Appendices include a provincial land use charter and land use goals.
