NRDC Global Leadership Council

The Global Leadership Council is a group of engaged, informed and influential individuals who work alongside NRDC’s staff of scientists, lawyers and other experts on the regional, national and international levels to advance long-term solutions to the environmental challenges facing our planet.  They act as active ambassadors for NRDC’s mission to safeguard the earth: its people, plants and animals and the natural systems on which all life depends.  In particular, they focus on environmental policies which have the greatest potential to ensure a sustainable future:  curbing global warming, moving America beyond oil, reviving our oceans, saving endangered wildlife and wild places, phasing out toxic chemicals and accelerating the greening of China.
