Partner Profile The World Bank Group's mission is to fight poverty and improve the living standards of people in the developing world. The World Bank Group is committed to sustainability, both through its operations and within the organization. The World Bank Group purchases a portion of their electricity use through wind renewable energy certificates. "Using renewable power will reduce our offices' environmental footprint, increase demand for renewable energy, and set an example for other institutions in the Washington, D.C. area and globally that using alternative energy is a sound and important choice," says Van Pulley, Director, World Bank General Services.
