The International Center for Climate Governance named WHRC the world's top climate change think tank for 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016.[2]
Woodwell Climate conducts research on the causes and impacts of climate change throughout the tropics, the Arctic, and North America. The Center designs all of its work to inform policy or answer policy questions[3][4][5] and is composed of five core units: Arctic, Carbon, Risk, Tropics, and Water.
