The group works toward preventing the destruction of natural areas still untouched by human development.  It also promotes clean air, water, and land.

Philosophically, the group advocates sustainability and good stewardship by the present generation.  It wants people now to take future generations into account and preserve the earth on their behalf.

The organization wants citizens to have a say in determining the quality of their environment, and opposes situations where poorer countries must live with dirtier environments.

New members can join NRDC for only $10 and will get a tote bag and the Amicus Journal.
