Our planet’s biodiversity is in crisis. Global wildlife populations have declined by 60 per cent on average over the past 40 years — and about half of Canada’s populations are also experiencing decline. WWF-Canada is working to reverse this.

In Canada, 84 per cent of habitats with high concentrations of at-risk species are inadequately or not at all protected. Alongside local and national partners, WWF-Canada is working to conserve ecologically important regions, create a network of protected areas and restore habitat across the country.

The climate crisis is wreaking havoc across the globe, putting the future of the planet as we know it at risk. WWF-Canada is working on nature-based climate solutions to reduce the release of greenhouse gas emissions into the atmosphere and increase our adaptation and resilience to the changes that have already begun.

WWF-Canada is using cutting-edge science and technology to help fill crucial data gaps, identify the most important habitats and use that knowledge to protect species diversity. From artificial intelligence to drones, conservation technologies are helping us find innovative solutions to some of the world’s most pressing environmental challenges.
