abstract
  • The National Geographic Society, based in Washington, D.C. in the United States, is one of the world's largest not-for-profit educational and scientific organizations. Its interests include geography and natural science, the promotion of environmental and historical conservation, and the study of world culture and history. Its historical mission is "to increase and diffuse geographic knowledge while promoting the conservation of the world's cultural, historical, and natural resources." Its current President and CEO, John M. Fahey, Jr., says National Geographic's purpose is to inspire people to care about their planet. The Society is governed by a twenty-three member Board of Trustees composed of a group of distinguished educators, businesspeople, scientists, former governmental officials, and conservationists. The organization sponsors and funds scientific research and exploration. The Society publishes an official journal, National Geographic Magazine, and other magazines, books, other publications, web and film products in numerous languages and countries around the world. It also has an educational foundation that gives grants to education organizations and individuals to enhance geography education. Its Committee for Research and Exploration has given grants for scientific research for most of its history and has recently awarded its 9,000th grant for scientific research, conducted worldwide and often reported on by its media properties. Its various media properties reach about 360 million people around the world monthly.

First published in 1888, the journal comes out monthly, containing articles covering history, culture, geography, science, and photography. They have gone on to produce multiple television specials and series, as well as feature films, including the 2005 Academy Award-winning documentary March of the Penguins. The magazine was referenced in The Miss Piggy Cover Girl Fantasy Calendar with the August entry "Pearls Cast Upon the Pacific". In 1979, National Geographic World, a children's magazine published by the National Geographic Society, did a behind-the-scenes story on the Muppets. The issue included a fold-out poster that explained how Muppets are constructed. In 2004, planning to produce a one-hour, primetime special with Ernie and Bert, filmed on location in South Africa and a location in South America. To be released on TV in the "fourth quarter of 2005 and a home video to follow," nothing ever materialized. The project was said to be inspired by the Global Grover segment. In 2006, the Indian National Geographic Channel commissioned five one-hour films of Galli Galli Sim Sim; it is unknown whether they were produced. In 2009 for season 40, National Geographic ran an article about the environmental curriculum of Sesame Street.
