WWF’s **Living Planet Report** is the world’s leading, science-based look at the health of our amazing planet. The report is produced in collaboration with ZSL, the Stockholm Resilience Centre, the Global Footprint Network, the Stockholm Environment Institute and Metabolic.

The [|Living Planet Index (LPI)] is a measure of the state of global biological diversity based on population trends of vertebrate species from around the world.

The 2016 edition shows the devastating impacts humans are having on the world’s wildlife and natural world. It also shows we can solve these problems.
