Green is the only colour and this is normally associated with preservation of the environment and our planet. | |

The panda logo represents a species of animal that was once under threat of extinction, due to human activities such as farming and urban expansion, affecting their natural habitat.

The shape has been simplified and the colours are always limited to black and white. The logo represents clearly, the aims of the World Wildlife Fund. | |
