Rocky Mountain Institute

Rocky Mountain Institute is a think-tank that drives the efficient and restorative use of resources.

It is engaged in research that addresses pragmatic designs, practices, policies – not social theories and laboratory experiments.

It works on solution process – idea, strategy, and implementation – with different players in the private, public, and civil society sectors.

The guiding principles of the institute are the four principles of “Natural Capitalism” from Paul Hawken: i) productivity of natural resources ii) closed-loop production systems iii) service-oriented business model and iv) natural capital.
