As the premier independent institute dedicated exclusively to
analyzing environmental, energy, and natural resource topics,
Resources for the Future gathers under one roof a unique community of
scholars conducting impartial research to enable policymakers to make
sound choices.
Since 1952, RFF scholars have been asking?and answering?tough
questions, looking over the intellectual horizon, and providing
successive generations of policy, business, environmental, and civic
leaders with the core tools and fundamental approaches they need to
improve environmental policymaking worldwide.
Through a half-century of scholarship, RFF has built a reputation for
reasoned analysis of important problems and for developing innovative
solutions to environmental challenges. RFF pioneered the research
methods that allow for critical analysis of environmental and natural
resource policies, enabling researchers to evaluate their true social
costs and benefits.
