    Summary of Direct Charitable Activities
    List the foundation’s four largest direct charitable activities during the tax year. Include relevant statistical information such as the number of organizations and other beneficiaries served, conferences convened, research papers produced, etc. Expenses
    1 The foundation focuses on improving the governance of shale development in addition to supporting efforts to reduce the negative environmental and community impacts of shale gas development.The unresolved challenges related to shale development and natural gas can be divided into two broad categories. The first set of questions involves natural gas as a fuel source, including to what extent fugitive methane emissions occur and how these emissions can be minimized and to what extent abundant natural gas displaces renewable energy and energy efficiency in electricity generation.The second set of questions involves the risk of impact from hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling to develop shale formations. These technologies have a distinct risk to the environment and communities, but these risks can be economically managed.The Shale Sustainability Program supports a number of solution-driven strategies, including:1. Examination of the interplay between federal, state, and local gove 1,052,069
    2 Cooks Branch Conservancy, comprised of approximately 5,300 acres donated by the Mitchell family in 2011, promotes conservation ethics and demonstrates the resilience of nature in perpetuity, offering a rare glimpse into what a century of regeneration looks like in the East Texas Piney Woods. The transformation of the once clear-cut, overgrazed working ranch into an award-winning nature conservancy exemplifies extraordinary habitat management and wildlife conservation on private land.Heat and water stress associated with climate change is making forests more vulnerable throughout the world. Cooks Branch acts as a field laboratory for the study of such things as carbon flux, drought, ecosystem transition, biodiversity, and the effects of fire.The conservancy utilizes tools such as restoration timber harvests, prescribed burning, mechanical and chemical midstory control, invasive species eradication, and replanting in various combinations to meet specific habitat goals. Evidence of the im 770,778
    3 The Cynthia and George Mitchell Foundation is committed to clean energy in the state of Texas and supports strategic efforts that ensure that the state's growing demand for power is both minimized and met with the cleanest and water-leanest sources of electricity possible. The Clean Energy Program has three areas of focus: Enhancing Distributed Energy Resources (DERs); Catalyzing community-scale energy projects; and Reducing Industrial emissions.The foundation seeks to invest in initiatives that demonstrate a comprehensive understanding of Texass competitive electricity market structure and can leverage that knowledge to create innovative and effective energy policies that ensure reliability and resource adequacy while reducing the environmental and health impacts of power generation.To achieve its strategic goals, the Clean Energy Program supports:1. Efforts to bring an array of diverse communities to bear on clean energy policy issues;2. Policies, analysis, and innovative mechanisms 201,825
    4 The Cynthia and George Mitchell Foundation aims to conduct targeted, leveraged intervention in key issues to transform land conservation in Texas. The Land Conservation Program includes a set of strategic and overlapping initiatives to address deficiencies in the current land conservation system and build foundational elements to help ensure a healthy, ecologically diverse, productive, and sustainable landscape for future generations. The goal is to permanently conserve priority lands in Texas through systemic, science-driven stewardship of private lands that ensures healthy waters and abundant habitat. The programs focus includes:1) Land Conservation Capacity Building2) Hill Country to the Gulf Coast Land Protection3) Infrastructure Siting and Habitat Impacts 106,437
