Annual Meeting Tapes
(The EGA Tapes)
The Environmental Grantmakers Association
(EGA) is a coalition of donor foundations that provide many millions in
environmental grants each year. The EGA's annual retreats are strategy planning
sessions during which grantmakers lay their plans for the coming year.
The classic gathering was in 1992, when key foundation leaders laid out their intentions to hijack the environmental movement with the goal of remaking the world in their own image. Twenty-four sessions of the 1992 annual retreat were taped by a professional recording service.
The Center purchased a copy of all 24 tapes and transcribed 8 selected tapes word for word without editing. These transcriptions reveal the hidden agenda of social control that lays behind the public face of environmentalism. Read the plans of these foundation minions in their own words. How much of what you see happening around you was orchestrated a decade ago by people you never heard of, who are not affected by their own actions, and who care nothing for your well-being?
