DONATE NOW TO FIGHT CLIMATE CHANGE !
Introducing the RAINFOREST CLIMATE ACTION FUND : Fighting climate change by protecting the world ’ s most important tropical forests
In the midst of the worsening climate crisis , tropical deforestation is once again on the rise . In 2020 alone , the world lost over 30.1 million acres of tropical forest – an area larger than the state of Pennsylvania . That ’ s nearly an acre per second .
This rampant destruction dumped into our atmosphere 2.64 gigatonnes of carbon dioxide , more than double all annual vehicle emissions in the USA .
This Earth Day , Rainforest Trust is launching our new RAINFOREST CLIMATE ACTION FUND .
This will support Rainforest Trust projects that protect tropical forests which cost-effectively store and sequester vast quantities of carbon . Donating to this fund may be the most efficient way to fight climate change right now , while also saving biodiversity .
With your support , we will work to permanently lock up 15 billion tons of carbon by 2025 .
We ’ d like to thank our founding donors to the Rainforest Climate Action Fund for offering a $ 170,000 match in celebration of Earth Day : Bruce and Jian Irish , Docusign , Jefferies LLC , and Gerald , Keith , Rosemary and Julia Bradley .
