WWF Canada has launched many ambitious conservation programs. These programs tackle some of the most daunting conservation challenges facing the country as well as the broader international community.

Global Warming
WWF's Climate Change Program is fighting global warming on every scale,
from local communities to the international arena. Our goal is to get everyone working together on real solutions – to use less energy, to use clean energy
and to help live with the effects of global warming.

manage and restore this precious endowment through the use of protected areas and sustainable forestry practices.
