Since its inception in 1961, WWF has worked to conserve nature and ecological processes through a combination of action on the ground, national and international advocacy work to establish appropriate policies, and international campaigns to highlight and demonstrate solutions to crucial environmental problems.




.What sorts of issues does Panda Passport take action on?.


We take action on issues relating to WWF’s mission - to stop the degradation of the planet's natural environment and to build a future in which humans live in harmony with nature. Online campaigns are created to support our global priorities or respond to a crisis situation or provide pressure at a local level to support conservation work in our national offices.



For example, in the past Panda Passport activists have:

Helped ban "set net" fishing from inshore waters of New Zealand's North Island's upper west coast in order to protect the critically endangered Maui's dolphin.
Stopped plan to hunt and kill all tigers in the northern Malaysian state of Kelantan in response to human-tiger conflict
Beat back attacks on a vital nationwide forest management law in Peru.
Pressured the Croatian government to protect the outstanding Velebit forest, home to the brown bear, wolf, wildcat and lynx.



.How does Panda Passport work?.


You participate in Panda Passport from your desktop. Through our campaigns you can send e-mails, petitions or faxes to decision-makers at no cost to you. With some campaigns, you can edit and print a letter to post to targets who are more responsive to mail. Other campaigns let you send an e-mail or letter to our conservation staff in the field, showing your support for their invaluable work. And some campaigns let you make a personal commitment, such as buy FSC-certified wood or switch to renewable energy. There are many options for taking action!
