The Swiss Water Footprint

The welfare of Switzerland depends on water from other countries: this is what you will discover in this study carried out by WWF in partnership with SDC and specialized Universities, in collaboration with the interdepartmental group of the Swiss Federal offices concerned with water issues (IDANE Wasser).

The imported water risk

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.

Reviving the Economy of the Mediterranean Sea

This report from WWF demonstrates that the Mediterranean Sea is a major contributor to the regional GDP and that its natural resources represent a huge asset for the Blue Economy not only for the region but also globally.

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.

Reviving the Ocean Economy

WWF’s Reviving the Ocean Economy report, done in collaboration with the Boston Consulting Group, clearly spells out what we all stand to lose if the mismanagement of ocean assets continues.
Recognizing that science alone is an insufficient motivator, we have combined the evidence of serious environmental degradation with the economic case for urgent action.

Principles for a Sustainable Blue Economy

WWF developed a set of Principles for a «Sustainable Blue Economy.»

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.

Factsheet Mahafaly Plateau Land and Seascape

The spiny forest ecoregion is critical for all life on this remote region. It contains the highest percentage of endemic plant species in the country, with 48 per cent of the genera and 95 per cent of the species occurring nowhere else on earth. The coastal and marine ecosystem is alive with an estimated 6,000 reef-associated species, including 752 fish species and 340 coral species. Some of the main threats facing this landscape are a population growing at a rate of 3.3% per year, deforestation, uncontrolled and destructive fishing practices, difficult climate conditions and trafficking of species.

Factsheet Manambolo Tsiribihina Landscape

The mangroves lining this landscape’s coast provide important ecological services for the region. The mangroves provide timber and fuelwood for local people and also form a buffer, protecting coastal areas from storm surges and sea level rise caused by climate change. Most critically, they are a breeding ground for crabs, fish and shrimp, which are the main sources of food and economic value for local people. Major threats include overfishing and slash-and-burn agriculture, problems accentuated by poverty and social conflict.

Factsheet Northern Highlands Landscape

The most important forest corridor in northern Madagascar. The rugged territory is one of the last truly unknown corners of the world, with large areas not yet explored. It is also a critical wildlife corridor and the headwaters of rivers flowing to both the western and eastern sides of Madagascar. The immensity of the landscape means there are distinct challenges in different sections. In the west deforestation is a particular threat, while the eastern section is troubled by the illegal collection of forest products and small scale mining.

Factsheet Northern Mozambique Channel Seascape

The Northern Mozambique Channel (NMC) region is one of world’s outstanding marine and terrestrial biodiversity areas and a biological reservoir for coastal East Africa. The economic importance of the NMC has emerged as a future driver of national and regional development on a scale not previously realized in East Africa, due to the high fishery productivity of the Mozambique Channel, recent findings of globally significant natural gas deposits and a high potential for coastal tourism development. Accelerating population growth and demographic changes in the NMC region (growing to 30 million, by 2030) will increase demands for and pressures on resources, while at the same time providing opportunities for economic growth and building prosperity. Lackluster governance of marine resources, including low capacity, weak law enforcement (triggering expansion of Illegal fishing), inappropriate public investment and political instability, characterize the region.

State of Community Conservation, Summary

Community conservation is about managing natural resources sustainably to generate returns for rural people. Conservancies, community forests and other community conservation initiatives create the needed legal framework for this. By choosing to live with wildlife, rural communities are broadening their livelihood options as well as enabling a healthier environment.

Giant Fish of the Mekong River

The worlds biggest freshwater fish and 4 out of the top ten giant freshwater fish species can be found in the Mekong River which flows through Cambodia, China, Lao PDR, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam. More giants inhabit this mighty river than any other on Earth.
