Campaigning
If everyone in the world lived like we do in the UK, we’d need three planets – not just one – to support us. It’s a way of life that’s threatening the future of our natural environment, as well millions of people around the world.
WWF puts pressure on government and industry to make the changes needed to alter our three-planet lifestyles, and build a One Planet Future where people and nature thrive within their fair share of the Earth’s natural resources. This means campaigning on the key areas that have the biggest impact in the UK – our homes, transport, food and the energy we use.
But our work isn’t just about tackling the threat of collapse to our natural world. Food grown naturally, cheap efficient homes, and the space to enjoy the great outdoors can also have a positive impact on our own lives.
