Il rishio importato - estratto

Oltre 1500 laghi, fiumi e corpi idrici forniscono alla Svizzera grandi quantità di acqua, tanto che il nostro Paese è anche chiamato «la riserva d’acqua d’Europa». Tuttavia, nemmeno la Svizzera è al riparo dai problemi legati a questa risorsa; e non si tratta soltanto di problemi futuri legati al cambiamento climatico, ma anche di problemi con cui bisogna misurarsi già oggi.

The imported water risk - Excerpt

More than 1500 lakes, rivers, and bodies of water provide Switzerland with an abundance of water. Our country is called the water castle of Europe. In spite of this fact, Switzerland is not insulated from water problems – not only in the future due to climate change, but even today.

Living Blue Planet

This report provides the most accurate picture of the state of the ocean--and the results are not good. We have lost half the fish populations that we rely on in less than half a century. The findings spell trouble for all nations, but will especially impact people in the developing world who rely on seafood for their daily diets and economic livelihoods.

Reviving Melanesia Ocean Economy

The Reviving the Melanesia Ocean Economy report, produced by WWF in collaboration with the Boston Consulting Group, finds that Melanesia’s ocean economy is one of the main economic drivers in the region and describes the major role the ocean plays in providing food, livelihoods and well-being. As multiple pressures combine to threaten the ocean assets that deliver so much for the region, the report outlines clear steps for Melanesia to urgently translate commitments into scaled-up action to achieve a sustainable and inclusive blue economy and a healthy future.

Living Amazon Report 2016

Over the last few years, we have learned how important the Amazon is for human well-being, in helping to stabilize the world’s climate and hydrological cycle and providing ecosystem services that underpin the region’s food, water and energy security. The word “irreplaceable” is over-used but fully justified here.

Cetaceans and & Other Marine Biodiversity

For better or worse, climate change is altering ecosystems and communities around the globe. There are two essential elements to reducing the negative effects of these changes: limiting the rate and extent of climate change itself (mitigation), and reducing the vulnerability of pecies, systems, and communities to actual and anticipated changes (adaptation).

River Dolphins and People: Shared Rivers, Shared Future

As this report shows, river dolphins embody this truth. This report highlights how uncoordinated efforts to manage our rivers and the impacts of economic development have alread led to the extinction of one river dolphin species. Their well-being is a telltale indicator of river health, and their current decline should be an alarm bell for everyone involved in shaping freshwater policy or managing corporate risk.

Whales, dolphins and porpoises (cetaceans) have captured human imagination since ancient times and are without doubt some of the most fascinating animals on earth. The 87 recognized cetacean species demonstrate a myriad of characteristics and behaviours, and have adapted to an enormous range of habitats – from the polar regions to the tropics, from the high seas to rivers and lakes.

WWF and Polar Bear Conservation
