How does WWF choose the sources that it cites in reports?
WWF always strives for the highest possible standards. Our work on climate change is based on many decades of peer-reviewed work produced by the world’s most respected scientists, climatologists and conservationists. In this instance, not reviewing the primary source of our information was an isolated mistake which went against the strict standard procedures followed by our organisation. We believe that one inaccurate quote – included in error in our work – does not diminish the overwhelming evidence that climate change is one of the foremost threats facing our planet today and one which requires immediate action.
