Projects on sustainable development (in all programs)

WRI is a global environmental think tank that goes beyond research to put ideas into action. We have over 50 active projects working on aspects of global climate change, sustainable markets, ecosystem protection, and environmentally responsible governance.

Working with nations to achieve the twin goals of robust economic growth and a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions.

Ecosystems provide many tangible benefits–or “ecosystem services”–to people around the world. WRI is helping governments, businesses, and multilateral development banks include these ecosystem services in their decision-making, with the ultimate goal of reducing ecosystem degradation around the world.

Ensuring that the opportunities of clean energy are available to the nations that need them most by guiding effective international collaboration on low-carbon technology.

The Two Degrees of Innovation project works with researchers, engineers, policymakers and other practitioners to create the conditions for global innovation in clean energy, from research to deployment.
