For Nature, For People, Forever
WWF works to help local communities conserve the natural resources they
depend upon; transform markets and policies toward sustainability; and protect
and restore species and their habitats. Our efforts ensure that the value of nature
is reflected in decision-making from a local to a global scale. WWF connects
cutting- edge conservation science with the collective power of our partners in the
field, more than one million supporters in the United States and five million
globally, as well as partnerships with communities, companies, and governments.
Today, human activities put more pressure on nature than ever before, but
it’s also people who have the power to change this trajectory. Together, we can
address the greatest threats to life on this planet and protect the natural resources
that sustain and inspire us.
Our work is focused around six ambitious goals:
Wildlife Conservation
Saving nature is at the very heart of what we do as WWF. For nearly 60
years, we have made it our mission to find solutions that save the marvelous array
of life on our planet by applying the best science available and working closely with
local communities. But our work is far from done. Humans are behind the current
rate of species extinction, which is at least 100–1,000 times higher than nature
intended. We’ve seen an astonishing 60% decline in the size of populations of
mammals, birds, fish, reptiles, and amphibians in just over 40 years, according to
WWF's Living Planet Report 2018. And the impacts will reach far beyond the
potential cultural loss of iconic species like tigers, rhinos and whales. And the
impacts will reach far beyond the potential cultural loss of iconic species like
tigers, rhinos and whales.
The good news is we’ve also seen what’s working. WWF has been part of
successful wildlife recovery stories ranging from southern Africa’s black rhino to
black bucks in the Himalayas. And this, in turn, is helping to protect rich and
varied ecosystems while ensuring people continue to benefit from nature. This
much is clear: we cannot afford to fail in our mission to save a living planet.
