Cool Earth

Cool Earth is committed to fighting climate change by protecting endangered Amazonian rainforest, which will prevent massive carbon emissions while providing sustainable jobs for locals.

Cool Earth seeks to ensure the rainforest’s sustainable protection by making sure it is worth more standing than cut down. Working with partners throughout the Amazon, Cool Earth invests in local trusts to help protect at-risk rainforests around the clock. Through its donations, Cool Earth employs the rainforest’s surrounding communities, providing the local people with the means necessary to profit from the forests without destroying them. To date, Cool Earth and its global donors have already protected over 40,000 acres of endangered rainforest, locking up more than 100 million tons of carbon.

Cool Earth protects rainforest around the Ashaninka tribe in Peru, one of the Amazon’s oldest indigenous tribes. By investing in sustainable local production, we are helping to price destruction out of the market. Cool Earth also helps to protect the Awacachi corridor in the Ecuadorian rainforest. This reinforces the conservation of over 350,000 hectares of unique rainforest.

Since 2007, Cool Earth has secured 40,000 acres of endangered rainforest, locking up more than 100 million tons of carbon, using a new model of carbon responsibility that gives everyone a tangible, meaningful way to fight climate change.
