The campaign utilized special white Coca-Cola cans featuring polar bear graphics to promote the cause, and Coca-Cola pledged $2 million to WWF's conservation efforts, with an additional commitment to match donations up to $1 million.
  • Tiger Conservation (TX2 Initiative): Building upon the commitments made at the 2010 Tiger Summit, WWF focused on the Global Tiger Recovery Programme (GTRP) to double the population of wild tigers by 2022.

They also convened a symposium, "Towards Zero Poaching in Asia", which brought together various organizations to develop a coordinated strategy to eradicate poaching of tigers, rhinos, and elephants, and introduced a Zero Poaching Toolkit to assist countries in achieving this goal.
