The Global Council for Science & the Environment (GCSE) is a non-partisan non-profit organization aimed at improving the scientific basis for environmental decision-making. With a focus on promoting science to inform government decision-making on complex environmental challenges, GCSE works collaboratively with scientists, educators, policymakers, business leaders, and officials at all levels of government. Formerly known as the National Council for Science and the Environment (NCSE), GCSE has been dedicated to its mission since its establishment in 1990.

The organization offers a range of programs and resources, including research reports, essays, and science dialogues, to provide valuable insights and data for environmental policy development. GCSE also organizes conferences and events, such as the Annual Conference and the John H. Chafee Memorial Lecture, which bring together experts and stakeholders to exchange ideas and address pressing environmental issues.

Through its initiatives, GCSE strives to achieve a better future by fostering the integration of science, policy, and environmental decision-making. To support their work and stay updated on the latest developments in this field, individuals can become GCSE members, join the member community network, or donate to the organization
