The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) has issued a warning about the future of the world's
natural World Heritage sites. It says half of the sites are at risk from different industries. The
WWF warned that harmful industrial activities such as mining or drilling for oil are endangering
the future of 114 of 229 sites. Other factors adding to the risk include illegal logging and
unsustainable water use. All of these are in addition to the damage being done by climate change.
The WWF says the sites affected include Australia's Great Barrier Reef, the Grand Canyon
National Park in the USA, and China's Sichuan Giant Panda Sanctuaries, which are home to more
than 30 per cent of the world's endangered pandas.
The director of the UNESCO World Heritage Centre said it was up to everyone to protect
these sites. She said: "World Heritage is humankind's common heritage, and the responsibility for
its conservation is shared by everyone." She welcomed government efforts at reducing what they
take from the Earth. However, the WWF said that more than 11 million people worldwide rely on
World Heritage sites for food, water, shelter jobs and medicine, and that non-stop development

could harm livelihoods as well as the environment.
