Cool Earth

Cool Earth works with communities living in the world’s most threatened rainforest.⁠ Protecting carbon-rich rainforest is essential in the fight against climate change, and those who call forest home are the best custodians of these trees. Cool Earth helps local people grow sustainable incomes to fight deforestation, preserving this essential environment. ⁠Through the current coronavirus crisis, the charity is bringing urgent supplies to remote communities and helping plan for the future of families and forest.

Rainforest

Rainforest
Carbon-storing, wildlife-homing, oxygen-releasing rainforest is essential for life on Earth. But every two seconds, a football-pitch sized area is destroyed. Protecting rainforest is one of the most vital actions we can take to reduce emissions and tackle climate breakdown.

Living with the effects of climate change is a daily reality for indigenous communities and the world’s most vulnerable. The current pandemic makes accessing even basic food a challenge. Your support can change that: help people feed their families and plan for the future of their forest, today.
