The WWF releases its Living Planet Report which is published every two years.

It’s a comprehensive study of trends in global biodiversity and the health of the planet.

Main points of the WWF report:
– Global wildlife populations see an average decline of nearly 70% in just under 50 years.
– Nature is the ‘linchpin’ in our climate fight – without its protection and restoration, net zero goals will not be met.
– Latin America and the Caribbean region, including the Amazon – critical in controlling global temperatures – have seen wildlife populations decimated and shrinking, on average, by 94% within a lifetime.
