WWF is the charity we are supporting at the International Green Awards 2011

 

 

Resource loss, particularly biodiversity and species loss, is one of the defining issues of our era. 2010 marked the International Year of Biodiversity, a UN initiative that took a global step forward in putting biodiversity on the sustainability agenda.

 

This year has been declared as the International Year of Forests, another signpost in the global agenda to promote sustainable living.

 

WWF is the world’s best known charity for conservation efforts, and this year, WWF celebrates 50 years of conservation efforts. WWF believes in an outlook where both people and nature can co-exist and thrive, within their fair share of natural resources.

 

Apart from their conservation efforts, they have been successfully working with business, government and communities to promote a ‘one planet future’. WWF also encourages transformational change and disruptive innovation from the business community and are showcasing some of the best efforts through their ‘Green Game Changers,’ initiative.

 

The International Green Awards are honoured to be associated with this visionary organisation this year, and hope to raise funds to further WWF’s work.

“It’s important to celebrate initiatives that drive us towards a One Planet Future – a future in which the production and consumption of goods and services flourish within the Earth’s ecological limits.”

Dax Lovegrove – Head of Business and Industry, WWF
