Peter Lehner is the Executive Director of NRDC, and manages more than 350 dedicated
environmental advocates in seven offices across the planet and guides NRDC's policy
positions and advocacy strategies. Since Peter assumed his role as Executive Director in
2006, NRDC has strengthened and rededicated its resources towards curbing global warming,
building a clean energy future for America, reviving the world's oceans, saving
endangered wild spaces and lands, stemming the tide of toxic chemicals, and accelerating
the greening of China. NRDC has opened new offices in Chicago and Beijing, and established
a new Center for Market Innovation.
In addition to Peter's leadership at NRDC, he has been involved with a number of
other organizations. He teaches law at Columbia Law School, and serves on the boards of
the Butler Environmental Protection Fund, the Columbia Journal of Environmental Law, New
York Rivers United, and the Center for Watershed Protection. He is also a member of the
Council on Foreign Relations, on the advisory council of Harvard University's David
Rockefeller Center for Latin American Studies, and is one of the founding members of the
