LETTER FROM GARY E. KNELL 

Dear Friends, 

When I was offered the chance to lead the National 

Geographic Society, I knew I had been given the opportunity 

of a lifetime. I am deeply honored to follow in 

John Fahey’s footsteps. As we continue to build upon 

our impressive legacy—126 years and counting—we are 

well positioned to make an even bigger difference in the 

world through exploration, storytelling, and education. 

National Geographic seeks out the most important and compelling stories 

of our time and shares them with the world. Stories matter. Documenting 

the last pristine places in the ocean has helped persuade governments to 

protect them. Revealing the possibility of bringing back extinct species has 

fueled a lively debate about whether we should attempt to do so. National 

Geographic also brings new perspectives to matters closer to home: the 

causes and consequences of extreme weather, the history of sugar and its 

impact on our health, why failure can sometimes be good for us. 

Our stories become important the moment they inspire you to share your 

thoughts and images, illuminate an issue that affects the future of the planet, 

or teach you a little more about our interconnected world. We are focusing 

on three tenets—inspire, illuminate, and teach—which you’ll read more about 

in this report. 

I look forward to working with you—our most devoted donors and partners— 

on advancing our mission. With your help, we can change the world for the 

better. Thank you for supporting our work in 2013.

LIONS, LIVESTOCK, AND LIVELIHOODS 

A lion’s roar is a majestic sound. But for herders or villagers in Africa, that roar 

can represent a serious threat to the safety of their families and the livestock they 

depend on for survival. National Geographic’s Big Cats Initiative (BCI) grantees 

work with communities that share their land with predators to find innovative yet 

simple ways to ensure they can thrive peacefully together. 

BCI grantees have identified reinforced bomas—traditional livestock enclosures 

used in many parts of East Africa—as among the most effective solutions for big cat 

conservation. A sturdy, well-built boma can prevent livestock from being targeted 

by the cats and, as a result, can stop the cats’ being killed in retaliation. In 2013 we 

launched Build a Boma, a peer-to-peer fundraising campaign that allows donors 

to help us build the enclosures. 

Our goal is to raise $500,000. All donations go directly to boma construction 

projects in East Africa supported by BCI to help National Geographic protect lions, 

livestock, and the livelihoods of local people. A donation of as little as $25 covers 

the cost of maintaining a boma for a year. A gift of $500 will help a family build a 

strong, new boma that will guard livestock from attack—and keep big cats from 

harm—for years to come.

CHANGING THE COURSE FOR THE COLORADO RIVER 

Lifeline of the American Southwest, the Colorado River is so heavily dammed, 

diverted, and depleted that it no longer reaches the sea. Change the Course, a movement 

spearheaded by National Geographic, BEF (formerly the Bonneville Environmental 

Foundation), and Participant Media, with support from the Walton Family 

Foundation, engages with the public, corporations, and on-the-ground conservation 

groups to return critical flows of fresh water to portions of the river basin. 

Change the Course is playing a vital role in the restoration of the Colorado Delta, 

once one of the planet’s great desert aquatic ecosystems. Following the “pulse flow” 

called for by the 2012 agreement between the United States and Mexico and designed 

to mimic the spring flooding that once occurred naturally, Change the Course will 

help secure the crucial “base flows” needed to sustain habitats that emerge during 

the pulse. The delta restoration will boost fish and wildlife populations, including some 

380 bird species, and benefit local Mexican and indigenous communities. 

Change the Course motivates members of the public to learn about their own 

freshwater footprint and take a free pledge to conserve water at changethecourse.us. 

For every pledge, Change the Course restores a thousand gallons of water to the 

Colorado River Basin with funding from corporate sponsors such as WhiteWave, 

Coca-Cola, Disney, and 1% for the Planet. Change the Course has built a pledge community 

of some 65,000 people from all 50 states and more than a hundred countries 

and made significant contributions to projects throughout the entire Colorado River 

Basin—from the headwaters to the delta. 

To take the pledge, visit changethecourse.us.

ARCHAEOLOGY FROM SPACE 

National Geographic explorers are using data from satellites hundreds of miles 

above the Earth along with other remote-sensing technology to improve detection 

of ancient hominid remains in Africa. 

Explorers-in-Residence Meave and Louise Leakey and National Geographic 

Fellow Sarah Parcak employed airborne hyperspectral lidar and multispectral satellite 

imagery to survey Kenya’s Turkana Basin. The area is fossil rich but difficult to work in 

because of challenges posed by both terrain and geological conditions. This project 

leveraged Parcak’s pioneering use of similar archaeological tools in Egypt. 

Lidar—which stands for light detection and ranging—uses a pulsed laser to generate 

precise, three-dimensional information about the shape and surface characteristics 

of the Earth. The team is overlaying the project map generated by lidar with soil 

data from satellites to create high-resolution 3-D landscape imaging that will be put 

into service in the field on iPads, creating virtual ground-survey guides. 

In addition to collecting project data, Parcak and the Leakeys will develop a field 

school in Kenya for remote sensing, GIS, and advanced surveying techniques. The 

school will take advantage of free online resources such as Google Earth and Esri’s 

GIS tools to build capacity among Kenyan anthropologists. 

PEERING INTO ANCIENT EGYPT 

Two satellite images are combined into a highresolution 

picture that shows subtle changes in the 

landscape caused by shallowly buried features— 

in this case, houses in the town of Tanis. 

To the naked 

eye, the site is a 

muddy mound. 

PROTECTING THE OCEAN’S LAST WILD PLACES 

“We’re working to contribute to the largest ocean legacy in human history,” says 

Enric Sala, National Geographic Explorer-in-Residence and executive director of 

National Geographic’s Pristine Seas project. The exploration, research, and media 

initiative aims to permanently protect pristine places in the ocean, covering several 

million square kilometers of wild marine habitats by the year 2020. Pristine Seas 

expeditions produce key data that help make the case for conservation of the world’s 

most remote and unspoiled marine sites. Policy work and media outreach inspire 

communities and governments to protect these wild places from the harmful effects 

of overfishing, pollution, and habitat destruction. 

Sala’s team has already contributed to the protection of 400,000 square kilometers 

of ocean, an area the size of California. The team conducted nine expeditions to remote 

locations between 2009 and 2013. Three of the sites now have status as marine protected 

areas—the Pacific Remote Islands National Monument (U.S.), Seamounts Marine 

Managed Area (Costa Rica), and Motu Motiro Hiva Marine Park (Chile)—and we have a 

verbal commitment for a system of marine parks covering 20 percent of Gabon’s coastal 

waters. Five sites are in progress, among them three marine environments explored in 

2013: the Desventuradas Islands off the coast of Chile, Franz Josef Land in the Russian 

Arctic, and New Caledonia in the South Pacific. The team has an ambitious expedition 

schedule in the years ahead to help protect the last wild places in the ocean.

ILLUMINATE 

THE FIGHT AGAINST CONFLICT MINERALS 

Minerals in our electronic devices have bankrolled unspeakable violence in 

the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Tin, tungsten, tantalum, and gold— 

essential components in the microprocessors that power our cell phones and 

laptops—are often sold by smelters that acquired the metals from mines controlled 

by armed groups in a country that has seen nearly 20 years of war. 

In October 2013 National Geographic magazine published “The Price of Precious,” 

revealing how the extraction of these minerals contributes to violence in the DRC 

and featuring powerful images by photographer Marcus Bleasdale of child laborers 

and others caught in the web of “conflict minerals.” Bleasdale wants people to feel 

as shocked and angry when they see his photographs as he felt when he made them. 

“I want people to scream for change,” he says. 

In January 2014 Intel CEO Brian Krzanich announced that the microprocessors his 

company produces will no longer be made with conflict minerals from the DRC and 

adjoining countries. After years of work auditing the more than 60 smelters that supplied 

the company, Intel now contracts only with those that use minerals from mines 

certified conflict free. 

“Intel is one of the world’s largest manufacturers of microprocessors,” says 

Bleasdale. “What they did is huge. It gives the effort momentum.”

GOING TO BATTLE FOR ELEPHANTS 

The plight of elephants in the wild received global media attention in 2013. Illegal 

ivory trafficking sparked outrage around the world, thanks in part to two exposés by 

National Geographic. In February the National Geographic Television documentary 

Battle for the Elephants—generously supported by David H. Koch, The Asen Foundation, 

and The Charles Engelhard Foundation—took PBS viewers undercover to examine 

the international network behind elephant poaching and the ivory trade. The documentary 

was based in part on contributing writer Bryan Christy’s investigation of the 

recent increased demand for ivory and the poachers and smugglers who meet that 

demand. His cover story, “Blood Ivory,” appeared in the October 2012 issue of National 

Geographic magazine. 

New information on the ivory trade and other threats to elephants has resulted 

in global action. In September 2013 National Geographic joined other organizations 

and several African nations in signing the Clinton Global Initiative’s Partnership to 

Save Africa’s Elephants, an international effort to stop elephant poaching and ivory 

trafficking. In November the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service destroyed some six tons of 

impounded ivory—almost a quarter century’s worth of seized carvings and raw tusks. 

The government of China followed suit in January 2014 with a public ceremony to 

destroy more than six tons of seized elephant ivory, the first event of its kind in China. 

And in February the Obama Administration announced enhanced restrictions on the 

ivory trade designed to create a near-complete ban on the commercial sale of African 

elephant ivory in the United States.

ILLUMINATE 

BRINGING EXTINCT SPECIES BACK TO LIFE 

When Jamie Shreeve, executive editor for science at National Geographic magazine, 

heard about revolutionary techniques that might bring the iconic extinct passenger 

pigeon back to life, he knew he was on to something. What began as a hunch for 

a magazine article has since evolved into a powerful dialogue around the topic of 

de-extinction—resurrecting extinct species—and the practical and ethical arguments 

that go along with it. 

The magazine’s April 2013 cover story, “Reviving Extinct Species,” was complemented 

by a Web hub of National Geographic news and commentary on the subject 

as well as the premiere of Mammoth: Back From the Dead, which aired April 12 on 

the National Geographic Channel. 

Scientists and conservationists who sit on either side of the debate convened at 

National Geographic headquarters for TEDxDeExtinction, the first public forum on 

the groundbreaking science and the issues that arise around efforts to bring vanished 

species back to life. Co-hosted by National Geographic and Revive & Restore, 

a nonprofit clearinghouse for worldwide de-extinction, the event garnered roughly 

33,000 topic mentions on social media and generated some 265 million impressions. 

De-extinction was covered by NPR, the Times of London, the Boston Globe, CNN, 

CBS, and many other media outlets. 

“It’s a sort of breakthrough—a turning point in our relationship with nature,” says 

Shreeve. “In one sense, our power to be destructive in the environment and cause 

damage to ecosystems is well proven. Here’s an opportunity to use our intellectual 

capacity to do some good—to do it very thoughtfully. It’s the thoughtful part that’s 

most important.” 

EXPLORING OUR GRAY MATTER 

Compiling the latest research in neuroscience and psychology, the original series 

Brain Games debuted April 22, 2013, on the National Geographic Channel. Created by 

National Geographic Television, the show delves deep inside the mind with a carefully 

crafted slate of mind-bending experiments that keep viewers guessing: In one, 

black-and-white photographs appear to have color; in another, a random volunteer 

is “levitated.” Hailed by critics and viewers alike as fun and entertaining science, 

Brain Games is part of the Channel’s strategy to offer audiences original, engaging 

programming that embodies the spirit of National Geographic. Its double-episode 

premiere drew 1.5 million viewers, setting a record as the highest-rated series launch 

in the Channel’s history. Brain Games subsequently received a Primetime Emmy 

nomination for Outstanding Informational Series or Special. The show’s second season 

explores a new array of topics on how we see, think about, and process the world 

around us. Episodes are devoted to attraction, trust, competition, colors, stress, and 

more. The new season also premiered internationally on the National Geographic 

Channel in 170 countries and 48 languages. 

Left: The April 2013 issue of National Geographic magazine explored the science and ethics 

of bringing lost species back to life. Right: In March the Society hosted the TEDxDeExtinction 

conference in partnership with Revive & Restore. 

National Geographic Channel’s number one series, Brain Games, hosted by Jason Silva (above), 

challenges audiences with interactive illusions and experiments that help illuminate the 

extraordinary nature of the brain. 



In July 2013 National Geographic magazine featured 

“Last Song for Migrating Birds,” an exposé about the millions 

of songbirds that are killed for food, profit, and cruel amusement 

across the Mediterranean region. Here, a rescuer uses 

his saliva to remove sticky plum tree sap from a trapped bird’s 

feathers and feet so it can safely fly when released.

DOWN AND DIRTY IN THE BAYOU 

Imani, a seven-year-old student from Bridgeport, Connecticut, used to be frightened of 

anything that flew or crawled. “I’m not scared anymore,” she says. “It’s like a beautiful 

thing that just happened.” At BioBlitz, Imani says, "I felt like an explorer.” And that is a 

beautiful thing. When kids see wonder and biodiversity in their own backyards, they 

realize they can help protect those habitats in a way that is life changing. 

Imani (below right) was one of 1,500 schoolchildren who got their hands dirty 

during the 2013 BioBlitz and Biodiversity Festival in Louisiana’s Jean Lafitte National 

Historical Park and Preserve, an event made possible through the support of Southwest 

Airlines, the Harold M. and Adeline S. Morrison Family Foundation, the National Park 

Foundation, and the National Park Trust. 

Led by more than a hundred scientists from around the country, thousands of 

amateur explorers, students, and family members, along with National Geographic 

explorers Juan Martinez, Zeb Hogan, and Neil Losin, conducted a 24-hour inventory of 

the plants, insects, mammals, birds, and other creatures that inhabit the 23,500-acre 

preserve. Using technology like GPS and smartphone apps, they crowdsourced the 

identification of species so scientists and naturalists not at the park could lend their 

expertise. Together, they found 458 species, including a rare Louisiana milk snake and 

a fish not previously on the park’s species roster. 

National Geographic and the National Park Service have made a ten-year commitment 

to conduct a BioBlitz in a different park each year leading up to the National Park 

Service Centennial in 2016.

Investments in new digital products and a cutting-edge website are helping educators 

explain our interconnected world to students around the globe. In 2013 usage of the 

Education Portal at NatGeoEd.org took off. The interactive media, lesson plans, and 

mapping tools developed with the support of the Verizon Foundation and others are 

reaching an enormous audience. In the last quarter of 2013 the portal welcomed more 

than a million visitors per month, double the number during the same period in 2012. 

We reached a larger number of educators more effectively in 2013 through 

online courses and interactive e-books. Educators from around the world participated 

in an eight-week online course funded by Annenberg Learner and the Annenberg 

Foundation, “Water: The Essential Resource,” and reported increased confidence 

across all areas related to the learning objectives. Our One Ocean is among the first 

interactive professional development e-books for educators. 

We debuted our Kids Engineering Exploration Challenge in China. The program 

invites students to design engineering solutions to real-life problems that our explorers 

face in the field. The challenge, funded by Oracle, is a collaboration of NG Education, 

the NG Engineering Lab, and NG Kids. The program will be launched in the U.S. 

in 2014 with the goal of building enthusiasm for and participation in the STEM subject 

areas: science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. 

To further encourage students to consider careers in STEM, we have also partnered 

with Lockheed Martin to create materials for Engineers in the Classroom. This 

program provides teaching tools and recommended hands-on activities for engineers 

to use when sharing their experiences with K-12 students.

HELPING KIDS STAY CURIOUS 

GEOGRAPHY BEE’S 25TH ANNIVERSARY 

Sathwik Karnik began racing his brother at age six to find obscure locations in the 

family atlas, a game his mother devised to hone his geography skills. In 2013 this 

12-year-old seventh grader from Massachusetts took first place—and the $25,000 top 

prize—at the annual National Geographic Bee, generously supported by Google. 

For 25 years the Bee has excited American students about geography. Nearly 

four million students from 12,000 middle schools participate, with state finalists 

competing each May in Washington, D.C. 

Since 1993 the National Geographic World Championship has expanded the Bee 

internationally as a celebration of geography and cultural exchange. In the spirit of 

friendly competition and academic achievement, national teams meet every other year 

in cities around the world. The 2013 competition was held in St. Petersburg, Russia. 

The U.S. team placed first. Jeopardy! host Alex Trebek, who has moderated the Bee 

and World Championship since their beginnings, stepped down following the World 

Championship—but not before making a generous one-million-dollar gift to ensure the 

Bee’s future. Award-winning journalist, filmmaker, and television host Soledad O’Brien 

will take Trebek’s place as the moderator of the Bee, beginning in May 2014.

The National Geographic Kids group gives children a wide-open window to explore, 

discover, record, and share the world around them. Through our NG Kids and NG 

Little Kids magazines, books, e-books, apps, videos, and award-winning website we 

reach more than 20 million curious minds each month. 

NG Kids goes out to four million readers in the United States every month and is 

the highest-circulation fully paid kids’ magazine in the world with 16 local-language 

editions, including a newly launched Chinese edition. In 2013 the Kids magazine app 

was a finalist for a Cynopsis Kids !magination Award, and Little Kids won a Parents’ 

Choice Gold Award for the seventh year in a row. Our Children’s Books group celebrated 

several successes, with the Treasury of Egyptian Mythology and The World 

Is Waiting for You both earning starred reviews from Publishers Weekly and Kirkus. 

The Kids Almanac 2014 sold nearly half a million copies across all editions. 

Engaging children outside of school is crucial to helping them understand how 

to learn and be curious. In 2013 we asked kids everywhere to join the Great Nature 

Project and post photos they took of plants and animals in their neighborhoods. 

The result: a Guinness World Records title for the Largest Online Photo Album of 

Animals. Our new Marine Missions app teaches kids about ocean animals and the 

importance of water conservation in an interactive adventure game. We are also 

developing exclusive digital content for Kids magazine subscribers through the digital 

version of the magazine and our mobile-friendly website. And we’re expanding video

CELEBRATING 

125 YEARS

THE POWER OF PHOTOGRAPHY 

National Geographic magazine was first published in October 1888 as 

the official journal of the National Geographic Society and has since grown 

to reach 60 million readers worldwide each month. Celebrating its history 

as an innovative center for photography—from conducting the first photographic 

survey of the night sky in the Northern Hemisphere to the pioneering 

use of a robotic remote-controlled camera—the magazine continues to push 

technological and creative boundaries. 

The magazine marked its 125th anniversary with a special October issue 

devoted to photography. To complement its release, National Geographic 

also unveiled a provocative new photography blog, Proof, and launched 

a redesigned photo-sharing platform, Your Shot, which invites enthusiasts 

to submit photos and participate in digital assignments for the magazine. 

“Photography is a powerful communication tool and form of self-expression,” 

says Chief Content Officer Chris Johns. “Sharing what you see and experience 

through the camera allows you to connect, move, and inspire people 

around the world.” 

In celebration of our 125th anniversary, the Annenberg Space for Photography 

in Los Angeles presented “The Power of Photography,” a print and 

digital exhibition (above) featuring iconic National Geographic images—from 

portraits to landscapes to natural history. A record-breaking 80,000 visitors 

saw photomosaics documenting the history of National Geographic photography, 

along with an extensive digital installation showcasing the 500-plus 

individual images. Thirty professional-grade, large-format LED monitors were 

arranged to create video walls, ranging from 12 to 14 feet wide. The exhibition, 

which was free to the public, also showed videos produced by National 

Geographic—documentaries and interviews with our photographers—as 

well as an original documentary commissioned by the Annenberg Space 

for Photography.

A REINVENTED COUNCIL 

In 2013 National Geographic created the 

International Council of Advisors, composed 

of industry leaders and philanthropists representing 

13 states, the District of Columbia, 

Azerbaijan, Canada, China, Egypt, Mexico, and 

South Africa. Formerly the Council of Advisors, 

the group took on an important role in 125th 

anniversary activities and expanded its focus 

to reflect the Society’s global mission. 

The Council provides visionary leadership 

and valuable insight as we plan the Society’s 

future. Advisors serve as informed emissaries 

to share the work of National Geographic 

with new audiences. 

Members are personally invited to join the 

Council, which meets both at headquarters and 

off-site at an annual retreat and participates in 

other events throughout the year. Members are 

kept up-to-date on cutting-edge research and 

exploration taking place in the field. The income 

generated through Council membership has 

had a transformative impact on National 

Geographic’s work around the globe. 

“I am proud to work with the International Council 

of Advisors, who give their time, talent, and resources 

to support efforts the Society has deemed most 

mission-critical. These leaders bring their personal 

and professional connections and experiences to 

strengthen National Geographic’s brand and its ability 

to spread its mission throughout the world.” 

DAWN L. ARNALL 

2014 Chair, International Council of Advisors 

NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC LIVE 

Behind every great National Geographic story there is a great storyteller. 

National Geographic Live and the National Geographic Speakers Bureau 

bring the stories of our writers, photographers, filmmakers, scientists, explorers, 

and adventurers to audiences across the United States and the world. 

In 2013 we reached more than 110,000 people in 17 cities around the world, 

expanding to Auckland, Melbourne, and Stockholm. 

The 2013-2014 National Geographic Live series premiered BELL, a oneman 

play revealing the extraordinary life of Alexander Graham Bell, who 

served as the second president of the National Geographic Society from 

1898 to 1903. Written by journalist Jim Lehrer, directed by Jeremy Skidmore, 

and starring Rick Foucheux, the play was the first original drama to be 

performed at the Society. 

BELL exposed many dimensions of the man known as the inventor of the 

telephone. As National Geographic marked its 125th anniversary, BELL was a 

fitting tribute to one of its early leaders, who embodied the spirit of exploration 

with his desire to reveal, in his words, “the world and all that is in it.” 

Above left: Photographer Joel Sartore shares portraits of endangered species with a Nat Geo Live 

audience in Toronto. Right top: The one-man play BELL premiered on National Geographic’s 

Grosvenor Auditorium stage in Washington, D.C. Right bottom: Photographer Paul Nicklen

CELEBRATING 

125 YEARS 

GALA: “A NEW AGE OF EXPLORATION” 

National Geographic’s 125th Anniversary Gala celebrated “A New Age of 

Exploration” with a gathering of 850 guests from around the world at the 

National Building Museum in Washington, D.C. Surrounded by spectacular 

video footage projected in high definition on 80-foot-tall screens—setdesign 

components never before seen in the United States—attendees 

enjoyed a sustainably sourced dinner created by renowned chef and 

National Geographic Fellow Barton Seaver. 

“ ‘Women of Vision’ is an extraordinary collection of images revealing 

the full spectrum of the human experience, from moments 

of great joy and sorrow to how we live and experience the world 

on an ordinary day. PNC’s partnership with National Geographic 

has brought this exhibition to Washington, D.C., and will enrich 

communities as the tour continues around the country.” 

DONNA PETERMAN 

Chief Communications Officer, PNC Financial Services 

Proceeds from the June 2013 event were dedicated to the National 

Geographic Fund for Exploration, which supports the remarkable people 

conducting research, exploration, and conservation projects that address 

the pressing challenges and opportunities facing our planet.

VISIONARY EXHIBITS AT THE MUSEUM 

National Geographic has a strong history of documenting the world through 

photography and supporting photographers as important storytellers who 

make a difference. In 2013 the National Geographic Museum hosted two 

exhibitions of powerful images by some of the world’s best. 

The critically acclaimed “Women of Vision: National Geographic Photographers 

on Assignment”—made possible by National Presenting Tour Sponsor 

PNC Financial Services, Inc.—kicked off a three-year, multi-city tour at the 

museum. Celebrating 11 award-winning female photojournalists, the exhibition 

explores topics ranging from child brides to the face of modern slavery 

to lions on the brink of extinction. A companion book serves as an illustrated 

exhibition catalogue along with a website, wovexhibition.org. 

A second engrossing exhibition, “Lions, Tigers, and Bears,” highlights years 

of work by National Geographic wildlife photographers Michael Nichols, 

Steve Winter, and Paul Nicklen. The images show the animals stalking, eating, 

socializing, and fighting for survival.

photographers featured in National Geographic’s “Women of Vision” exhibition are (from left)

“I give to National Geographic because I believe that powerful stories and 

moving photographs can spark conversations around the globe about the 

critically important issues we face. When we better understand our world, 

we can begin to take better care of each other and our beautiful planet.”

SUSTAINABILITY AT NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC 

At National Geographic, stories matter. But our values extend beyond 

our exploration, photography, and reporting. We care about people, our 

environment, and making smart financial choices. That’s why we adopted 

triple bottom line accounting—which means we seek to make decisions 

based not only on revenue but also on the effect the decisions will have on 

our employees, our community, and our planet. 

We hope to be as bold in our sustainability efforts as the explorers we support. 

We strive to minimize our own environmental impact and the impact 

of our suppliers and partners. Our “Green Team” of staff volunteers from all 

parts of the Society works daily to identify and reduce operational waste. 

National Geographic values its stellar staff. We encourage environmentally 

friendly commuting, inclusive employment policies, and healthful food 

options, all of which are communicated through our award-winning intranet. 

We have set the following operational goals to be met by 2015: 

• Reduce our use of electricity by 5 percent compared with 2011. 

• Reduce our use of water by 10 percent compared with 2011. 

• Reduce our waste sent to landfills by 25 percent compared with 2011. 

• Work with our suppliers to reduce the greenhouse gases emitted on 

our behalf by 5 percent compared with 2011. 

To learn more, visit nationalgeographic.org/sustainability. 

Staff and members of the community gather in the courtyard of National Geographic 

headquarters on Washington, D.C.’s Bike to Work Day.

INSPIRING US TO CARE ABOUT THE PLANET 

John Fahey joined National Geographic on 

April 1, 1996, as the first president and CEO of 

National Geographic Ventures. The digital 

revolution was beginning to topple old media 

empires everywhere, and John left his post as 

head of Time Life Inc. to help the Society navigate 

previously unexplored territory. His efforts were 

recognized with his promotion to president and 

CEO of the Society in March 1998. 

The organization John took charge of nearly two decades ago little resembles 

the one he has turned over to Gary E. Knell. For one thing, it is now international 

in all but name. After being published only in English for more than 

a century, National Geographic magazine is now also printed in 39 locallanguage 

editions, reaching millions of people. The Society launched the 

National Geographic Channel under John’s direction in September 1997. 

Today, multiple National Geographic Channels reach more than 440 million 

households in over 170 countries. The Society’s international growth encompasses 

content for media platforms including magazines, books, a host of 

digital offerings, and a website that logs more than 25 million visits a month.

John also greatly expanded support for explorers and scientists working 

in the field, as well as our educational efforts to tell their stories and share 

their findings in the classroom. Today we have made more than 11,000 grants 

and have educational programs in all 50 states. 

Change is inevitable. The Society’s most influential presidents have confronted 

that reality. Yet none of those presidents faced the unprecedented 

pace of change that confronted John. Unfazed, John focused on opportunity, 

demonstrating the drive, determination, and strategic vision necessary to 

lead the way. 

Thank you, John, for your service to National Geographic and for your 

continued service as chairman of the Society. We are grateful that you 

inspire us every day to explore the world and all that is in it.
