Description:
The Institute for Energy and Environmental Research (IEER) began work in 1987. Our focus has been mainly on two areas: ozone layer depletion and energy-related climate issues; and environmental and security aspects of nuclear weapons production and nuclear technology... IEER is a 501(c)(3) organization.

Stakeholder(s):

• Activists: EER provides activists, policy-makers, journalists, and the public with understandable and accurate scientific and technical information on energy and environmental issues. Our audience is that of the determined activist concerned about the world, the concerned policy-maker, and the knowledgeable journalist. We choose our subjects so that they are relevant to environmental protection and other aspects of human well-being. We rely mainly on primary scientific literature and official documents, and our work has held up well to intense scrutiny by the U.S. Department of Energy and its contractors, as well as others who have reason to dislike our conclusions ...
