2. WWF Mission The mission of WWF is… to build a future in which humans live in harmony with the natural world

3. What WWF-UK does

4. World CO ² emissions from fossil fuels 0 5,000 10,000 15,000 20,000 25,000 175018001850190019502000 million tonnes per year Earth's capacity to absorb CO 2

5. The climate is already changing, faster than expected

6. “Millions at Risk” We must stay below 2 o C

7. A challenge for business “If we continue to do things in the world in the same way as we do today, it will not be so easy for this planet to cope. We need a more intelligent society where we cannot just triple travel and triple cars and triple planes and triple everything. We need to find other ways of working.” Carl-Henric Svanberg, Chief Executive, Ericsson

8. WWF is not against flying BUT: Aviation is a significant contributor to Climate Change today It could produce 35% of global CO 2 by 2050 Non-CO 2 effects double the climate change impact A higher percentage of UK emissions than worldwide: we produce more air travel emissions per head than any other country Can we meet UK—and global—carbon reduction targets if aviation continues to grow?

9. The business case for flying less Save money - more profit Gain time – increase productivity Less carbon – improve CR profile Greater wellbeing – happier staff Keep connected – ‘telepresence’
