World Wide Fund for Nature (Organizations That Help the World) Book

This short series of six volumes is designed to help young people understand the vital role of organisations like the Red Cross and the World Wide Fund for Nature in their struggles to create a better world. Illustrated in full colour throughout in many cases from the archives of the organisations concerned, these will be lively, authoritative books that will help young people to grow up as caring members of society. WWF - World Wide Fund For Nature - is one of the largest nature conservation organizations in the world. It raises money to save the rhino, the tiger, the rainforests and the wetlands. It provides money for jeeps, speedboats, two-way radios and laboratory supplies. It educates people to use natural resources, like water and timber - which can renew themselves if given a chance - in ways that do not exhaust supplies. It has over three million members in all five continents, and tackles issues that cross all international boundaries: saving the world's species and fighting against pollution and destruction of resources. IWWF believes these issues and continues to play a significant and active role in this fight.Read More
