Our Global Warming Work

In the lifetime of a child born today, 20-30 percent of the world's plant and animal species will be on the brink of extinction because of global warming. As America's conservation organization, the National Wildlife Federation  is leading the way in bringing attention to the impacts of global warming on our natural world.

Advocate for Clean Energy Solutions

NWF advocates for national and international policy and legislation that will cut greenhouse gas emissions to levels that scientists deem necessary to avoid major climatic impacts. NWF advocates for solutions to climate change that will:

  • Reduce carbon pollution from coal, oil and natural gas.
  • Transition America to a clean energy economy and invest in communities.
  • Help the world adapt to the impacts of global warming.
  • Make forests and farms a part of the solution.

Safeguard Wildlife and Ecosystems

National Wildlife Federation works to safeguard wildlife and their habitats from the impacts of global warming. NWF and its partners are helping wildlife and ecosystems adapt to current and future climate impacts by:

  • Advocating for climate-smart policies that safeguard both people and wildlife.
  • Transforming the science and practice of conservation to ensure that wildlife and their habitats survive into an uncertain future.
  • Securing the conservation funding needed for wildlife to cope with the impacts of global warming.

Engage Diverse Communities

NWF is working to broaden the climate movement by engaging and empowering people and communities around global warming solutions that reduce pollution and jump-start investments in a clean energy economy. NWF has active campaigns to engage:
