WRI Says Fear Will Not Prevail; Pushes Forward with Climate Talks in Paris

The World Resources Institute (WRI) stated on November 17, 2015, that it would proceed with its expert team's support for a climate agreement in Paris. President and CEO Dr. Andrew Steer emphasized that the organization refuses to let fear prevail and views the summit as an opportunity to show solidarity with France and demonstrate the global community's ability to find common solutions. The WRI aims for an agreement that protects the planet, increases global prosperity, and enhances safety for vulnerable communities.

• The World Resources Institute intends to continue its support for the climate agreement negotiations in Paris following attacks in Paris and Beirut, viewing the process as a way to show solidarity with the people of France.
