Overview

Mission

See schedule o

What it reported doing in 2024

The trust is working on a possible education campaign focused on educating policymakers and other opinion leaders about the benefits of climate change and carbon dioxide capture and sequestration (ccs) as a method of action to mitigate carbon dioxide emissions that would benefit the trust and its industry.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

STRONG - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Expenses are high relative to revenue and some filing-based governance responses are negative or unanswered.
