Since 1998, Dr. Reid has led a process to establish the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, which will be a four-year initiative designed to improve the management of the world's natural and managed ecosystems by helping to meet the needs of decision-makers and the public for peer-reviewed, policy-relevant scientific information on the condition of ecosystems, consequences of ecosystem change, and options for response. From 1998 to 1999 Dr. Reid also coordinated the Puget Sound Salmon Collaboration, a group of Washington State environmental and business leaders chaired by William Ruckelshaus that recommended actions to help recover threatened salmon species. From 1992 to 1998, Dr. Reid was Vice President for Program at the World Resources Institute in Washington D.C.. Prior to that, he was a Senior Associate in the Biological Resources Program at WRI, and a Gilbert White Fellow with Resources for the Future.
Dr. Reid has conducted scientific and policy research in the fields of biodiversity conservation, climate change, energy policy, sustainable agriculture, and biotechnology. Dr. Reid has written or co-authored numerous reports and articles, including Keeping Options Alive: The Scientific Basis for Conserving Biodiversity; and, Biodiversity Prospecting: Using Genetic Resources for Sustainable Development. He is a member of the Board of Editors of Ecological Applications and past member of the Board of the Society for Conservation Biology.
