WWF International's new president Pavan Sukhdev has refocused his talents from banking to rescuing Nature -- and is encouraging corporations to work to that endFor some, it still does. Indeed, the Indian-born economist is convinced that it holds the key to saving the environment -- and our place in it. WWF International, he said, is a powerful platform for nudging business in the right direction. Founded in Switzerland in 1961, the World Wildlife Fund adopted the iconic giant panda as its logo and quickly spawned autonomous chapters in Britain and the United States. Today, WWF International and its national branches work in six distinct but intertwined areas: wildlife, oceans, forests, freshwater, food and climate change/energy.
