In 2020, EDFs research in the U.S. Permian Basin, the worlds largest oil field, revealed that oil and gas operations there are emitting nearly three times as much methane as previously thought. EDF advocacy helped spur New Mexico, New York and Pennsylvania to propose rules to cut methane pollution. EDF also prompted 15 states, including California and New York, to commit that 30% of medium- and heavy-duty trucks and buses sold in their jurisdictions will be zero emission by 2030; won commitments from Arizona Public Service and Xcel Energy to help realize the goal of a carbon-free electric power sector by 2035; and was a lead partner in legislation that provides a framework for farmers to contribute to, and benefit from, comprehensive climate solutions. In Canada, an EDF proposal to government officials helped lead to a $1.7 billion investment to clean up inactive oil and gas wells and create thousands of jobs. In India, EDF and partners are expanding low carbon development solutions for rural residents, including clean biogas cookstoves, and EDF is advising the state of Bihar on a climate action plan for agriculture that reduces pollution and helps farmers prosper. In China, final preparations to launch the worlds largest carbon market signified, for EDF, the culmination of 30 years of policy and technical work with Chinese regulators. In preparation for the launch, more than 7,000 people trained on market simulation software developed by EDF. 24414089 2570855 0 Education - In FY 2020, climate was EDFs single largest area of education, with mailings and online information educating EDF members and the general public about the science of climate change and the needed policy response, as well as other critical environmental issues. Four issues of the quarterly Solutions newsletter were part of this program, both online and in print. 20483322 2163524 0 ECOSYSTEMS EDF develops ways to meet peoples needs for food, water and other natural resources while improving ecosystems. In 2020, EDF teamed up with NASA, the Desert Research Institute and Google to launch OpenET, a web application that will provide farmers and water managers with accurate, timely, satellite-based data on the amount of water that is actually used to grow food. The data will help foster sustainable water use in the western United States, where agriculture is the largest consumer of the water supply, and will later expand to the entire country. EDF also sought to protect homes and businesses threatened by rising seas and more intense storms. Wetlands and floodplains are a critical line of defense against these threats. Building off earlier work in Louisiana, EDF helped secure bipartisan legislation in North Carolina that unlocks millions of dollars to restore such natural defenses. EDF also worked with agricultural partners to promote farming practices that protect communities from floods. 18249357 1304629 0 OCEANS 7606161 1405296 0 HEALTH 25855518 2709925 0 153315913 true true false true false false false false false true true false false false true true false true false true true true false true false false false true false true false false false false false false false false true false false false true true true true true false true X 513 0 true 785 true false true CH ID MX NL UK false false false false false false false false false false X 45 45 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false AL AK AR CA CO CT FL GA HI IL KS KY LA ME MD MA MI MN MS NV NH NJ NM NY NC ND OH OK OR PA RI SC TN UT VA WA WV WI X X WILLIAM OBRIEN 2125052100 257 PARK AVENUE SOUTH NEW YORK NY 10010 X Frederic D Krupp President 36.0 4.0 X 727297 0 97805 JESSICA ISSACS thru 819 chief administrative officer 36.0 4.0 X 587539 0 45043 CATHERINE NARDONE CHIEF DEVELOPMENT OFFICER 40.0 0.0 X 491450 0 79502 ERIC POOLEY SVP FOR STRATEGY AND COMMUN. 40.0 0.0 X 416777 0 108451 DANIEL DUDEK THRU 820 VICE PRESIDENT OF ASIA 40.0 0.0 X 408582 0 111051 AMANDA LELAND EXECUTIVE VP -

In FY2020, EDF spent a total of $8,933,155, which comprises 4.56% of its total expenditures, on influencing legislation. Consistent with its tax-exempt purpose, EDFs lobbying activities were focused on the protection of the preservation of natural systems on which all life depends. In a year of extraordinary challenges, Environmental Defense Fund has helped spur remarkable progress thanks to our supporters. Together, we advanced environmental protection around the world - even when the world was locked down by the COVID-19 pandemic. EDFs collaborative approach demonstrates the power of understanding diverse perspectives, whether times are good or bad. In 2020, it helped us move forward despite strong political headwinds in the United States. We banded together and persevered despite the challenges faced during a pandemic. We know that healing starts with listening, something EDF will be working on harder than ever in the months and years to come. We pledge to listen and lift the voices of the most harmed by pollution, natural disasters, and climate change to be heard. With environmental progress temporarily blocked in Washington, D.C., EDF found many other ways to help people and nature prosper by: - Prevailing in most court cases against the Trump administration to defend environmental laws. - Mapping air pollution with local groups in hard-hit neighborhoods to show how communities of color are unfairly affected. - Prompting 15 states, including California and New York, that together represent about one-third of the truck market, to commit that 30% of medium- and heavy-duty trucks and buses sold in their jurisdictions will be zero emission by 2030. - MOMS CLEAN AIR FORCE continues with its energy and momentum to the groundswell of climate action to demand action on the environment. Providing testimony before members of the U.S. House of Representatives and demanding 'Justice in Every Breath' for every policy impacting the health and well-being of children. - Working with companies to identify and introduce safer ingredients. - Challenging businesses to slash emissions. Thus far more than 1,500 companies with over $11 trillion in revenue have committed to a net zero future. - Providing farmers with new technology to make the most of precious freshwater supplies. - Securing bipartisan legislation that unlocks millions of dollars to restore natural defenses. - EDF played a major role in developing bipartisan bills on issues like declining limits on greenhouse gases, sustainable agriculture, and clean energy innovation. - The Moving Forward Act that passed the U.S. House incorporates 18 of EDFs policy recommendations. - Reviving imperiled fisheries while improving food supplies and boosting livelihoods around the world. EDF accomplishes its lobbying objectives through both in-house staff and outside consultants, who assist with strategizing and planning, and through grassroots and direct communications. EDFs largest lobby expenditure during FY2020 was a grant of $8.7M provided to Environmental Defense Action Fund (EDAF), the political action partner and affiliated 501(c)(4) organization of EDF. The purpose of the grant was to provide general support for the educational and lobbying activities of EDAF in furtherance of its mission, which is consistent with the shared program objectives of EDF and EDAF. As required by law, EDAF is restricted from using any of the EDF lobby grant funds for political campaign activities under the terms of the grant agreement between EDF and EDAF. 14102145 102960 347419 652179 13900345 13721003 103124 911174 633156 14102145 13242230 3011 1073741 597979 13721003 12453146 27521 1504407 742844 13242230 12170777 598267 315898 12453146 0.54170 0.45830 false false 393319 108163 285156 21229472 11549639 9679833 15361775 10529012 4832763 29955328 0 29955328 44753080 0 ANNUITIES PAYABLE 6448990 PENSION PLAN LIABILITY 4872993 INTERCOMPANY PAYABLES 4178048 DEFERRED RENT 3260833 18760864 X 201081859 427560 25284 452844 200629015 200629015 195844191 25284 25284 195818907 195818907 PART V, LINE 4: ENVIRONMENTAL DEFENSE FUND, INC.S ENDOWMENT CONSISTS OF NUMEROUS FUNDS, ESTABLISHED FOR A VARIETY OF PURPOSES AND CONSISTING ENTIRELY OF DONOR-RESTRICTED FUNDS.
