A balanced and rational approach to climate change
The Global Warming Policy Foundation is a non-partisan think tank and a registered educational charity that focuses on climate and energy policy.
We are deeply concerned about the impact of climate change policies: that they may be doing more harm than good, both to the world’s poorest people and the environment.
Our aim is to provide robust and reliable analysis of climate and energy issues, based on rigorous research, for policymakers and the general public.
