Enjoyment with side effects - #WWFthink episode 3

Save the world with the shopping basket? From Fairtrade to the Green Button, eco-labels try to make products that are manufactured in a more sustainable manner tasty.

Save the world with the shopping basket? From Fairtrade to the Green Button, eco-labels try to make sustainably produced products more palatable to people. But critics say that, given seafood from overfished stocks, palm oil from illegal land grabbing, or meat and soy from cleared rainforest areas, fair consumption is more of a pious wish than a real option. What can each individual do to ease the pressure on nature? What should we pay particular attention to when shopping? We are talking about this with our guests today:

Gerd Müller, Federal Minister for Economic Development
Anne-Kathrin Göbel, Trade Association Germany - HDE - eV
Lilith Diringer, WWF youth councilor, representative: in the next generation
Eberhard Brandes, CEO WWF Germany

The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) is one of the largest and most experienced conservation organizations in the world and active in more than 100 countries. Around five million supporters worldwide support him. WWF's global network maintains 90 offices in more than 40 countries. Around the world, employees are currently running 1300 biodiversity conservation projects.

The most important instruments of WWF conservation work are the designation of protected areas and the sustainable, ie nature-friendly use of our natural assets. In addition, the WWF is committed to reducing pollution and wasteful consumption at the expense of nature.

Worldwide, WWF Germany is involved in 21 international project regions for nature conservation. Priorities include the preservation of the Earth's last major forests - in the tropics and in temperate regions -, the fight against climate change, the use of living seas and the preservation of rivers and wetlands worldwide. WWF Germany also runs numerous projects and programs in Germany.

The WWF's goal is clear: if we succeed in sustainably preserving the greatest possible diversity of habitats, we can also save a large part of the world's animal and plant species - and at the same time preserve the network of life that also bears us humans.
