Top 10+ known worldwide by its panda logo đầy đủ nhất

The World Wildlife Fund, also called the World Wildlife Fund for Nature, with its familiar panda logo, is renowned for its wide-ranging conservation efforts. The Switzerland-based organization is generally known simply by its initials, WWF. Its mission statement signals the scope of its commitment:

“To stop the degradation of the planet’s natural environment and to build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature, by:

• conserving the world’s biological diversity
• ensuring that the use of renewable natural resources is sustainable
• promoting the reduction of pollution and wasteful consumption.”

Ever since it was founded in 1961, WWF has included both conservationists and businessmen, knowing that to be successful in its mission it would need public support, well-managed action, and solid scientific data. WWF also recognizes that effective efforts involve cooperation between non-governmental agencies, local governments, and local populations. From the outset, WWF has worked closely with the World Conservation Union (IUCN), and these days, it maintains a diverse range of partnerships, from talking to Baka Pygmy tribes in Central African rainforests to face-to-face discussions with world leaders and representatives of the United Nations, World Bank, and European Commission.

Over its 45 years of existence WWF has raised many millions of dollars, funding thousands of conservation initiatives around the globe. These include efforts focused on individual species, freshwater, forests, and marine issues as well as climate change. Equally important are its efforts to provide a safe and sustainable habitat for the world’s peoples, both urban and rural, including clean water, clean air, healthful food, and rewarding recreation areas.

Today WWF is active in more than 100 countries and has millions of supporters. Its more than 90 offices are focused on national and regional action. In addition to specific local issues, WWF is addressing such global issues as climate change, sustainable development, safe agricultural practices, and responsible international trade.
