ARCTIC GLOBAL SIGNIFICANCE

seals The Arctic contains special features that are invaluable to the rest of the world. It has the largest remaining wilderness areas in the northern hemisphere. The Arctic has recently been recognised as an important indicator of the state of global well-being and climatic change. The natural state of much of the Arctic makes this region an increasingly important area for scientific and environmental research. Arctic concerns should be reflected in international decision making affecting the region.

Through campaigns, environmental education, lobbying, press releases and newsletters WWF increases the awareness of decision makers and the general public regarding the global significance of the Arctic.
