The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF), commonly referred to as the World Wildlife Fund, is a leading global conservation organisation headquartered in Switzerland (CH). Founded in 1961, WWF has made significant strides in protecting the planet's biodiversity, with major operational regions spanning across Africa, Asia, and the Americas. As a prominent player in the environmental sector, WWF focuses on critical areas such as wildlife conservation, climate change, and sustainable development. Its unique approach combines scientific research with grassroots advocacy, enabling impactful initiatives that resonate worldwide. Notable achievements include the establishment of protected areas and successful campaigns to combat illegal wildlife trade. With a strong market position, WWF is recognised for its commitment to preserving natural habitats and promoting sustainable practices, making it a trusted partner for governments, businesses, and communities alike.
How does WWF's carbon action stack up? DitchCarbon scores companies based on their carbon action and commitment to reducing emissions. Read about our methodology to learn more.
Mean score of companies in the Business Services industry. Comparing a company's score to the industry average can give you a sense of how well the company is doing compared to its peers.
WWF's score of 14 is lower than 87% of the industry. This can give you a sense of how well the company is doing compared to its peers.
As of the latest available data, WWF does not report any specific carbon emissions figures, indicating a lack of publicly disclosed emissions data. Consequently, there are no absolute emissions numbers to reference, nor are there any specific reduction targets or achievements outlined in their climate commitments. WWF has not established any Science-Based Targets Initiative (SBTi) reduction targets or documented any significant climate pledges. This absence of data suggests that WWF may be in the early stages of formalising its carbon emissions strategy or may rely on broader industry initiatives for climate action. In the context of climate commitments, WWF is known for advocating for environmental sustainability and may engage in various initiatives aimed at reducing global carbon footprints, although specific details are not provided in the current data. Overall, without specific emissions data or reduction targets, WWF's climate commitments remain vague, highlighting a potential area for future transparency and accountability in their environmental impact reporting.
Companies disclose and commit to reducing emissions to show they are serious about reducing emissions impact over time. They can also help a company track its progress over time.
WWF is not participating in any of the initiatives that we track. This may change over time as the company engages with new initiatives or updates its commitments. DitchCarbon will update this information as it becomes available.
