About World Wildlife Fund
The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) is one of the world's largest and most experienced environmental organizations. Founded in 1961, WWF was born out of a growing concern among leading scientists and conservationists about the rapid decline of wildlife and the destruction of natural habitats. Initially focused on saving endangered species, WWF quickly expanded its scope to encompass broader environmental issues, including forest conservation, marine protection, freshwater ecosystems, and climate change. Over the decades, WWF has become a global leader in conservation, working in nearly 100 countries and supported by millions of people worldwide. Its mission is to conserve nature and reduce the most pressing threats to the diversity of life on Earth.
