LIFESTYLE Living planet report
The Living Planet Report published by the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) and the Zoological Society of London provides a snapshot of the health of our natural world. It makes for grim reading. Within its pages are genuine causes for dismay, with our fragile planet facing the double, interlinked emergencies of human-induced climate change and the loss of biodiversity. There is still time to act, but this requires measures that go beyond conservation. Instead, we must all adopt what the WWF describes as a nature-positive attitude.
