WRI works to improve people’s lives, protect and restore nature and stabilize the climate. As an independent research non-profit organization, we leverage our data, expertise and global reach to influence policy and catalyze change across systems like food, land and water; energy; and cities. With a global network of teams and offices across multiple regions, our 2,000+ staff work on the ground in more than a dozen focus countries and with partners in over 50 nations.

Our mission is to accelerate the move to a decarbonised future. Climate pioneers for more than 20 years, we partner with leading businesses, governments and financial institutions to accelerate their route to Net Zero. We are your expert guide to turn your climate ambition into impact. To date, our global network of 400 experts has helped set over 200 science-based targets and guided more than 3,000 organisations and cities across five continents on their route to Net Zero.

C40 is a network of nearly 100 mayors of the world’s leading cities who are working to deliver the urgent action needed right now to confront the climate crisis and create a future where everyone, everywhere, can thrive. Mayors of C40 cities are committed to using a science-based and people-focused approach to limit global heating in line with the Paris Agreement and build healthy, equitable, and resilient communities. Through a Global Green New Deal, mayors are working alongside a broad coalition of representatives from labour, business, the youth climate movement and civil society to go further and faster than ever before. The current co-chairs of C40 are Mayor of London Sadiq Khan and Mayor of Freetown Yvonne Aki-Sawyerr. Three-term Mayor of New York City Michael R. Bloomberg serves as President Emeritus of the Board. C40’s work is made possible by our strategic funders: Bloomberg Philanthropies and Realdania.
