Mercanta is proud to be a Gold level member of the WWF’s new business club – a community of small to medium sized businesses who are supporting WWF-UK’s urgent work.
WWF-UK is the UK arm of the WWF Network, the world’s leading environmental organisation founded in 1961 and now active in over 100 countries. By joining WWF’s business club Mercanta is raising vital funds to help WWF’s mission to stop the degradation of the earth’s natural environment, by conserving the world’s biological diversity, ensuring that the use of renewable natural resources is sustainable, and promoting the reduction of pollution and wasteful consumption.
The organisation’s work to tackle climate change is of particular relevance to our coffee producers, many of whom report that they are already feeling the effects of changing weather patterns on their farms.
