My Dear Distinguished World Leaders,. Wont You Ple.. 29th Sep 2020, by WWF Malaysia
My Dear Distinguished World Leaders,
Won’t you please make time to consider?
That it’s not as per man’s desire,
We decide how to govern nature-
For all of earth’s air, land and waters
Along with all her living creatures
neither knows of man’s drawn up borders
nor yields to executive powers
It’s in Nature’s nature to nurture
She’s both, creator and preserver
And we enjoy all of her splendour,

Masalah Pencemaran Sungai 28th Sep 2020, by WWF Malaysia
Hutan yang diterokai secara tidak lestari boleh menyumbang kepada masalah pencemaran sungai. Perubahan kepada penggunaan tanah boleh mengakibatkan hakisan tebing sungai. Seterusnya, pemendapan sedimen yang berlebihan akibat hakisan tebing sungai akan menyebabkan air sungai semakin keruh dan sungai menjadi semakin cetek. Hal ini menjadikan sungai tidak sesuai untuk kehidupan spesies akuatik. Untuk maklumat lebih lanjut, sila layari: wwf.org.my/donate
