Climate change is the biggest issue facing the planet. People, species and our precious environment are all at risk
Rising temperatures are caused by increased greenhouse gas emissions and human activities are to blame.
Climate change effects animal species, causes more frequent droughts and storms, raises sea levels, and damages precious ecosystems such as coral reefs. These changes are already under way around the world.
WWF is working to cut global greenhouse gas emissions, in order to reduce these harmful effects on people and nature.
Scientists predict temperatures may rise by as much as 4°C by the end of the century. In order to limit this to a safer level of 1.5°C carbon emissions must be cut by at least 80% by 2050.
Most of the technology needed for this low-carbon future already exists. What is needed is strong action by governments, industries and individuals.
