Seeing things? Tell us about it
Are you seeing unusual things happening in your environment? Corals turning white? Or people relocating because of rising sea levels?
If yes, you could be a Climate Witness--and WWF wants to hear from you.
Through the Climate Witness initiative, WWF connects with people around the world and helps them to share stories about how climate change impacts their lives here and now.
The area comes alive with an unrivalled diversity of coral species that includes more than half of the world’s reefs and 75% of the world’s coral species.
This natural abundance directly sustains the lives of nearly 130 million people in the region, and benefits millions more worldwide—including you.
As part of wider efforts to protect the Coral Triangle, we are looking for climate witnesses who can share personal experiences on how climate change is impacting their lives and living environment.
