The Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ) is a U.S. government agency established by the National Environmental Policy Act of 1969. Its primary role is to advise the President on environmental policies and ensure that federal agencies consider environmental impacts in their decision-making processes. The CEQ oversees the implementation of environmental reviews and promotes sustainable practices across the government.
The CEQ also coordinates federal efforts to improve environmental quality and works with various stakeholders, including state and local governments, to enhance public engagement in environmental issues. By fostering collaboration, the CEQ aims to create a more sustainable future for the nation and its ecosystems.
