We live in an age of rapid and unprecedented planetary change. Many scientists believe our consumption of the planet’s resources is driving a new geological epoch: the Anthropocene. The products we consume and the supply chains behind them have myriad impacts on the world around us. Biodiversity continues to decline due in large part to factors like agriculture, land conversion and overexploitation of species. A recent assessment found that only a quarter of the land on Earth is substantively free of the impacts of human activities. Marine and freshwater ecosystems are the source of life for all humans, yet they face huge pressures including habitat modification, fragmentation, and destruction; invasive species; overfishing; pollution; disease; and climate change. Without a dramatic move beyond a “business as usual” approach, the stark decline of natural systems that support our planet’s biodiversity and modern societies will continue, and impacts on people and nature could be severe.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
WWF’s vision is to build a future in which people live in harmony with nature. Our mission is to conserve nature and reduce the most pressing threats to the diversity of life on Earth.
We focus on six major goals in the areas of Climate, Freshwater, Forests, Oceans, Wildlife, and Food. We also seek to address three key drivers of environmental degradation: markets, finance, and poor governance. Together, these efforts propel coordinated approaches toward meeting our goals:
1. Climate: Ensure a climate-resilient and zero carbon world, powered by renewable energy.
2. Freshwater: Ensure the health of the world’s major basins is improving or maintained.
3. Forests: Conserve the world’s more important forests to sustain nature’s diversity, benefit our climate, and support human well-being.
4. Oceans: Ensure a resilient ocean sustains marine life and functioning ecosystems that support rich biodiversity, food security, and sustainable livelihoods.
5. Wildlife: Ensure the world’s most iconic species—including tigers, rhinos, and elephants—
are secured and recovering in the wild.
6. Food: Drive sustainable food systems to conserve nature and feed humanity.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
By compounding the efforts in all six goal areas and working in partnership with foundations, governments, businesses, communities, individuals, and our more than six million supporters, WWF can conserve many of the world's most ecologically important regions. To accomplish this, WWF aims to:
-protect and restore species and their habitats,
-co-design conservation efforts with local communities and support them in leading these efforts,
-transform markets and policies to reduce the impact of the production and consumption of commodities,
-ensure that the value of nature is reflected in decisions made by individuals, communities, governments, and businesses,
-mobilize hundreds of millions of people to support conservation.
Current international commitments to protect nature do not match the scale of the threats our planet is facing. In 2021, world leaders came together to set new goals for the Paris Climate Accord. And in 2022, they agreed to a new Global Biodiversity Framework within the UN Convention of Biological Diversity. WWF actively participated in both the climate and biodiversity summits, urging nations to move swiftly to put us on a path to net-zero emissions by 2050, and to halt and reverse nature loss by the end of this decade. WWF is now working with governments, companies, and other actors to help ensure the successful implementation of these agreements.

Balance sheetFiscal Year: Jul 01 - Jun 30
SOURCE: IRS Form 990 info
The balance sheet gives a snapshot of the financial health of an organization at a particular point in time. An organization's total assets should generally exceed its total liabilities, or it cannot survive long, but the types of assets and liabilities must also be considered. For instance, an organization's current assets (cash, receivables, securities, etc.) should be sufficient to cover its current liabilities (payables, deferred revenue, current year loan, and note payments). Otherwise, the organization may face solvency problems. On the other hand, an organization whose cash and equivalents greatly exceed its current liabilities might not be putting its money to best use.
