An independent center for policy research and technical assistance on
environmental and development issues. "WRI focuses on the global commons,
where the cumulative weight of human activities is undermining the
integrity of environmental systems; U.S. policies, since the U.S. is the
world's largest producer, consumer, and polluter, as well as a
trend-setter for many nations; and developing countries, where natural
resource deterioration is dimming development prospects and swelling the
ranks of the poor and hungry."
