Know Better, Do Better for People & the Wild

The intricate web of life that produces everything people need most - including food, clean water, and oxygen - is biodiversity.

Climate change is commonly understood to be one of the drivers of extinction, affecting biodiversity in nearly every corner of the planet. But few realize that the loss of biodiversity is also exacerbating climate change, and shifting global weather patterns.

Wilderness is the living network of the Earth where ecosystems, wildlife, and human communities coexist in balance with the natural world.

At WILD we believe that the single best strategy to defend humanity’s future is to bolster wild biodiversity in wilderness and invest in projects that give nature the space she needs to thrive.

The science is clear. Protecting half of Earth’s land and seas is essential for all life to thrive.

Indigenous land tenure honors Indigenous leadership in caring for land and life, strengthening biodiversity and protecting Half of Earth's land and seas.
