The global postal sector, with a network of some 600,000 postal establishments and as many vehicles used to move the mail daily, is committed to responding to the challenge of climate change. That’s why the UPU is working with its member countries and regional postal organizations to better assess the sector’s impact on the environment and find solutions for postal operators to reduce their carbon footprint. Through its Sustainable Development Project Group, the UPU is committed to addressing one of the most important issues of our times.

As the United Nations specialized agency for postal services, the UPU proudly supports the UN-led “Seal the Deal” campaign, developed to galvanize political will and public support for reaching a comprehensive global climate agreement in Copenhagen in December.
