OUR PLANET’S WILDLIFE IS IN CRISIS
The millions of different species on our planet are essential for so many of the most important things in our lives.
This complex web of life provides the natural systems we depend on – from clean air and water to fertile soils and a stable climate. It gives us food, medicines and materials, and supports millions of jobs. And it also inspires us, making our lives richer in so many ways.But our planet’s wildlife is in crisis – numbers have fallen by more than half since 1970, and species are becoming extinct at an alarming rate.We need to reverse this loss of nature and create a future where wildlife and people thrive agai
DISAPPEARING SPECIES
OUR WILDLIFE'S FATE IS IN THE HANDS OF JUST ONE SPECIES: HOMOSAPIENS.
Human activities threaten wildlife in two main ways: by destroying and damaging the places where wildlife lives, and by using them in ways that are unsustainable. Vast areas of natural habitat continue to be lost to agriculture, urban sprawl, mining and infrastructure, or are suffering from the effects of pollution, introduced species that often out-compete native wildlife, and, increasingly, climate change. Meanwhile, many species are declining because of unsustainable levels of hunting, fishing and harvesting. Others are being driven toward extinction to support the international wildlife trade, or killed when they come into direct conflict with humans and livestock.
Building a future in which people live in harmony with nature.
