Nature provides countless benefits—from clean air and fresh water to raw materials for homes, medicines, and food. But nature is under threat from pollution, deforestation, poaching, and more. That’s why WWF just launched a new campaign with a powerful message: Nature Needs Us Now.

In this episode of Nature Breaking, host Seth Larson sits down with Sara Thomas, WWF’s Senior Director for Marketing and Outreach, to take you behind the scenes of how the campaign came together. Sara shares the creative thinking behind the campaign’s 90-second ad, “Marble,” and reveals insights from WWF’s 2025 Connected by Nature Report, which explores how Americans view their relationship with nature.

You’ll learn why nature is more than just beautiful landscapes—it’s the foundation of our health, economy, and daily lives. And you’ll hear what each of us can do to protect the natural systems that sustain us.
