About NRDC: Annual Report

2008 Annual Report cover 2008 Annual Report

Through our ten-year Partnership for the Earth Campaign, NRDC experts are working on six major objectives to protect both the environment and people for generations to come: curbing global warming, creating the clean energy future, reviving the world's oceans, saving endangered wildlife and wild places, stemming the tide of toxic chemicals, and accelerating the greening of China. It is the generosity and tremendous loyalty of our supporters, even in these challenging economic times, that enables NRDC to continue to develop effective solutions to the most serious and complex environmental problems. We invite you to be a part of this historic opportunity.
