ESCROW OR CUSTODIAL ACCOUNT LIABILITY	SCHEDULE D, PART IV, LINE 2B WRI HOLDS MONEY WHICH IT RECEIVES ON BEHALF OF ANOTHER TAX-EXEMPT ORGANIZATION. THE CUSTODIAL MONIES ARE SPENT FOR THE SOLE PURPOSE OF PROVIDING SCHOLARSHIPS.
INTENDED USE OF ENDOWMENT FUNDS	Schedule D, Part V, Line 4 PROCEEDS FROM THE ENDOWMENTS ARE TO BE USED TO FUND THE OPERATIONS. THE ORGANIZATION HAS TWO ENDOWMENTS. THE LARGEST IS $25,000,000 FROM THE MACARTHUR FOUNDATION. THE SMALLER ENDOWMENT FUNDS INTERNSHIPS AT THE ORGANIZATION.
FIN 48 (ASC 740) FOOTNOTE	SCHEDULE D, PART X, LINE 2 THE INSTITUTE IS EXEMPT FROM FEDERAL INCOME TAXES UNDER THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 501(C)(3) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE ("IRCthe "Code"), THOUGH IT IS SUBJECT TO TAX ON INCOME UNRELATED TO ITS EXEMPT PURPOSE, UNLESS THAT INCOME IS OTHERWISE EXCLUDED BY THE CODE. THE INSTITUTE IS AN ENTITY DESCRIBED UNDER SECTION 509(A)(1) AND, THEREFORE, IS NOT CLASSIFIED AS A PRIVATE FOUNDATION. THE INSTITUTE HAS PROCESSES PRESENTLY IN PLACE TO ENSURE THE MAINTENANCE OF ITS TAX-EXEMPT STATUS; TO IDENTIFY AND REPORT UNRELATED INCOME; TO DETERMINE ITS FILING AND TAX OBLIGATIONS IN JURISDICTIONS FOR WHICH IT HAS NEXUS; AND TO IDENTIFY AND EVALUATE OTHER MATTERS THAT MAY BE CONSIDERED TAX POSITIONS. NO MATERIAL TAXABLE UNRELATED BUSINESS INCOME WAS GENERATED AND, ACCORDINGLY, NO PROVISION FOR INCOME TAXES HAS BEEN MADE IN THE ACCOMPANYING CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. THE TAX YEARS ENDING SEPTEMBER 30, 2014, 2015, 2016 AND 2017 ARE STILL OPEN TO AUDIT FOR BOTH FEDERAL AND STATE PURPOSES. THE INSTITUTE FOLLOWS THE ACCOUNTING GUIDANCE THAT CREATES A SINGLE MODEL TO ADDRESS UNCERTAINTY IN TAX POSITIONS AND CLARIFIES ACCOUNTING FOR INCOME TAXES BY PRESCRIBING THE MINIMUM RECOGNITION THRESHOLD A TAX POSITION IS REQUIRED TO MEET BEFORE BEING RECOGNIZED IN ITS CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS. UNDER THE REQUIREMENTS OF THIS GUIDANCE, ORGANIZATIONS COULD NOW BE REQUIRED TO RECORD AN OBLIGATION AS THE RESULT OF TAX POSITIONS THEY HAVE HISTORICALLY TAKEN ON VARIOUS TAX EXPOSURE ITEMS. THIS GUIDANCE PROVIDES THAT THE TAX EFFECTS FROM AN UNCERTAIN TAX POSITION CAN ONLY BE RECOGNIZED IN THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS IF THE POSITION IS 'MORE-LIKELY-THAN-NOT' TO BE SUSTAINED IF THE POSITION WERE TO BE CHALLENGED BY A TAXING AUTHORITY. THE ASSESSMENT OF THE TAX POSITION IS BASED SOLELY ON THE TECHNICAL MERITS OF THE POSITION, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE LIKELIHOOD THAT THE TAX POSITION MAY BE CHALLENGED. THE INSTITUTE IS NOT REQUIRED TO RECORD SUCH AN OBLIGATION.

ORGANIZATION'S MISSION	FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1 WRIS MISSION IS TO MOVE HUMAN SOCIETY TO LIVE IN WAYS THAT PROTECT EARTHS ENVIRONMENT AND ITS CAPACITY TO PROVIDE FOR THE NEEDS AND ASPIRATIONS OF CURRENT AND FUTURE GENERATIONS. Protecting the planet and the people on it has never been a job for the faint-hearted, but at this particular moment with deadly storms, heat waves, droughts and other phenomena demonstrating our increasing vulnerability to a changing climate the need for courage is absolutely clear. With the U.S. administration in retreat, the time is ripe for a new vanguard of climate leaders. At WRI, we have been privileged to work with many in this vanguard to foster sustainable prosperity and environmental resilience around the globe, from opening up transport in 87 Chinese cities to improving urban life for nearly 2 million Brazilians to cutting food waste worldwide. These projects and others detailed in this Annual Report show the value of nurturing partnerships and following our winning "count it, change it, scale it" approach to tackle the most complex challenges. Our new strategy for the next five years builds on this approach, recognizing that solutions will require disruptive political, social and corporate partnerships - movements rather than mere policy shifts - motivated by opportunity for a better future rather than by narrower environmental goals.
PROGRAM SERVICES	FORM 990, PART III WRIs more than 700 experts and staff work in more than 60 countries, with institutional offices in Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Mexico and the United States, in addition to a program office for our sustainable cities work in Istanbul. Our regional hub in the Netherlands supports our work in Europe and our regional hub in Ethiopia supports and expands work in more than 20 countries on the continent. We focus on six urgent global challenges that must be addressed this decade: cities, climate, energy, food, forests and water. Climate: Protect communities and natural ecosystems from damage caused by greenhouse gas emissions, and generate opportunities for people by catalyzing a global transition to a low-carbon economy. Energy: Drive the scale-up of clean, affordable power systems throughout the world to deliver sustainable socio-economic development. Food: Ensure the worlds food systems reduce their impact on the environment, drive economic opportunity, and sustainably feed 9.6 billion people by 2050. Forests: Alleviate poverty, enhance food security, conserve biodiversity, and mitigate climate change by reducing forest loss and restoring productivity to degraded, deforested lands. Water: Achieve a water-secure future by mapping, measuring, and mitigating global water risks. Ross Center for Sustainable Cities: Improve quality of life in cities by developing and scaling environmentally, socially, and economically sustainable urban and transport solutions. We design solutions for and analyze these six critical goals through the lenses of our four Centers: Business, Economics, Finance and Governance.
PROGRAM SERVICE ACTIVITY 1	FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4A Food, Forest and Water program Food: WRI works to meet these three needs. We develop analyses, partnerships, and strategies to secure a sustainable food future. WRI's World Resources report project develops solutions to the world's food production and consumption problems. We identify ways to reduce food loss and waste. We analyze strategies to sustainably increase food production, such as restoring degraded lands back into productivity, increasing pastureland yields, and improving land and water management. We advance methods to reduce food production's impact on the environment, such as climate-smart agriculture. Forests: WRI works with governments, businesses, and civil society to sustain forests for future generations. We aim to curb deforestation worldwide and help to restore and reforest already-cleared land. WRI's Global Forest Watch initiative uses the most advanced satellite data and crowd-sourced information to track deforestation throughout the world in near-real-time. Our Global Restoration initiative identifies ways to restore trees and productivity to deforested and degraded lands. Our Forest Legality Alliance helps businesses eliminate illegally sourced woods from their supply chains. We also develop policy recommendations to ensure effective and inclusive governance of the world's forest resources. Water: WRI works with businesses, governments, and civil society to ensure a water-secure future. We seek to address both water quantity and quality challenges. Our Aqueduct project uses the most up-to-date data to produce global water risk maps, allowing stakeholders to assess current and future challenges. We conduct economic and other analyses to identify the most cost-effective strategies to reduce water pollution. We identify solutions such as restoring ecosystem services to alleviate stresses on the world's water supplies.
PROGRAM SERVICE ACTIVITY 2	FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4B WRI Ross Center for Sustainable Cities: WRI aims to ensure that cities drive economic opportunity while sustaining natural resources and improving quality of life. Through our WRI Ross Center for Sustainable Cities, we use technical expertise, cutting-edge research, and on-the-ground partnerships to design solutions that enable sustainable city growth. Our analysis and tools allow cities to effectively manage their natural resources and reduce their greenhouse gas emissions while improving quality of life. Working across our network, we develop and support the implementation of research-based solutions in sustainable mobility, urban form, as well as urban efficiency & climate that reduce pollution, improve health, and create safe, accessible public spaces for all people to thrive. We collaborate with local and national decision-makers in Brazil, China, India, Mexico, and Turkey to implement projects that overcome the challenges of urbanization and make for greater cities. We partner with businesses, governments, and civil society to scale our successful pilot projects globally.
PROGRAM SERVICE ACTIVITY 3	FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4C Climate program: WRI engages businesses, policymakers and civil society at the local, national and international levels to advance transformative solutions that mitigate climate change and help communities adapt to its impacts. Our international climate work uses analysis, innovation and partnerships to achieve effective national policies and an ambitious, equitable global climate action agreement. Our U.S. Climate Action Initiative identifies cost-effective solutions for the United States to reduce its emissions in the short- and long-term. The Greenhouse Gas Protocol helps hundreds of companies and organizations measure, manage, and report their greenhouse gas emissions. Climate Watch, WRIs free and open online platform, empowers policymakers, researchers, media and other stakeholders with climate data, visualizations and resources they need to gather insights on national and global progress on climate change.
OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES	FORM 990, PART III, LINE 4D Energy: WRI works with businesses, policymakers, and civil society to transform the global energy system. We aim to dramatically reduce greenhouse gas pollution while meeting the energy needs of the poorest and building competitive economies. Our Charge initiative works to secure universal access to clean, affordable power. We shed light on the costs, benefits, and risks associated with different energy and policy options. We develop innovative approaches to buying, selling, and regulating clean electricity. We provide policy recommendations to advance renewable energy--particularly in major emerging economies like India and South Africa. And we foster collaboration amongst a diverse group of energy stakeholders, including regulators, utilities, businesses, governments, and civil society. Our centers: we design solutions for and analyze our six critical goals through the lenses of our four centers: 1) Our Business center harnesses the private sector to spur action, innovation, and ambition in support of sustainable development outcomes. We combine research, analysis, tools, and direct engagement with businesses to create solutions that advance environmental sustainability and drive value. 2) Our Economics center helps decision-makers identify opportunities for cost-effective action to protect or enhance natural resources, and ensure the delivery of essential ecosystem services. We provide research and tools to help identify and compare the full costs and benefits of continuing on a business-as-usual growth path versus more sustainable options. 3) The mission of WRIs Finance Center is to promote the shift of finance away from environmentally unsustainable activities and toward sustainable ones. We do this through the production of data-driven, policy-actionable research and knowledge products and by convening coalitions of key stakeholders that can drive action on the ground. Our work is structured around five key themes: (A) financing NDC implementation, (B) "greening" private sector finance, (C) strengthening public financial institutions, (D) encouraging the U.S. and China to be sustainable finance champions, and (E) strengthening investment in adaptation and resilience. 4) Our Governance center works to empower people and support institutions to foster socially equitable and environmentally sound decision-making. We use data and research to institutionalize fundamental democratic principles - such as transparency, participation, and accountability - into decision-making processes, policies, and legal frameworks.
