PROTECTING OUR GREEN SPACES & RAINFORESTS
When you shop with WWF, you’re helping to protect green spaces and rainforests like the Amazon. You’re defending nature and wildlife habitats. And because the Amazon plays a critical role in our global climate system, you’re joining the fight for Earth’s future.
THERE'S STILL HOPE
The Amazon, and our planet, faces an irreversible ‘tipping point’. If we lost just 5% more, the rainforest may no longer be able to sustain itself and we could lose the Amazon as we know it. But there’s still hope. WWF is working alongside local communities, Indigenous people and governments to stop deforestation and make sure the habitats of animals like sloths, jaguars and river dolphins are safe. Together we can help protect the Amazon, not just for the countless wildlife that lives there, but for our benefit too.
CREATING PROTECTED HABITATS
Jaguars may be one of the world’s most elusive big cats, but sadly their stealth doesn’t always help them escape poachers. WWF is helping create protected areas of thick jungle and lush wetlands in the Brazilian Amazon where vulnerable jaguars can hunt, breed and thrive.
