the Zoological Society of London and the World Ecological
Footprint Network. The report measures the health of the
planet in terms of several indicators: the state of animal
populations, the use of natural resources by humanity, the
use of renewable energy sources and resources, the amount
of fresh water consumed in production, and so on.

SymbolThe symbol of the World Wildlife Fund is the giant panda.
While the panda Chi-Chi was at the London Zoo in 1961, she
was seen by one of the founders of the World Wildlife
Fund, scientist and animal artist Sir Peter Scott. He made
a stylized portrait of a panda and decided that the image of
this good-natured animal in need of protection would be a
wonderful symbol of the new fund.
