WWF’s mission is to stop the degradation of the planet’s natural environment and build a future in which people live in harmony with nature. WWF do this by:
-
conserving the world’s biological diversity
-
ensuring that the use of renewable resources is sustainable
-
promoting the reduction of pollution and wasteful consumption
WWF is best known for its programmes to protect endangered species and their habitats. It also addresses global threats to people & nature, e.g. climate change & the unsustainable consumpton of the world’s natural resources. WWF works to create long-term solutions for the planet’s environment, and it works on many conservation & environmental projects to do this.

What successes are WWF having?
-
In Borneo, WWF helped stop the development of a 1.8 million hectare palm oil plantation from ploughing through tropical rainforest.
-
It helped set up the MCS initiative to change the way fish are caught, marketed and bought to help ensure the future of the world’s fisheries.
- In the Arctic, WWF campaign work has lead to a moratorium on oil drilling outside the Norwegian islands of Lofoten to protect this important marine area from pollution and oil spills.
- In the Russian Far east, two new national parks were recently created to protect the Amur tiger.
- Thanks to ongoing conservation efforts by WWF and their partners, black rhino numbers are on the rise in Kenya after years of decline from poaching and habitat loss.
- Efforts by WWF and the Chinese government have led to a 100 percent increase in panda habitat in reserves since 2002.
- WWF supports “elephant flying squads” - groups of domesticated elephants which can be used to drive wild elephants away from crops and avoid clashes with local villagers.
