Key Activities
WWF is at the heart of the global movement for a low-carbon, climate-resilient future. We remain calm and positive but also realistic about the huge global effort required to meet the challenge. We’re pushing governments to set ambitious policies that favour climate-resilient, low-carbon development, energy efficiency, and clean renewable energy for all – and holding them to account. We’re working with finance institutions to get money out of fossil fuels and into climate solutions, like clean technology and forest restoration. And we’re supporting businesses to cut their carbon emissions on a scale never seen before. At the same time, we’re working to reduce the impact of climate change in areas like agriculture, forests and water.
