Did you know? 👇 1️⃣ Humans have destroyed half of the world’s tropical forests and driven extinction rates up thousands of times higher than what is natural. 2️⃣ In the next few decades, an estimated 1 MILLION animal and plant species could disappear forever. Tropical forests are a treasure trove of biodiversity and as they disappear, so do the plants and wildlife that depend on them. Will you help protect their home? 👉 https://lnkd.in/gmtWR-zP There is no better time to give than today! With our matching opportunity before December 31st, your gift will go twice as far to bring about positive change. A gift of $25 today will be doubled to $50—helping save 2 acres of forest. For more than 35 years, we’ve been keeping forest ecosystems healthy and strong. But in the current crisis, we urgently need to do more. Your year-end support ensures that we can continue our work to stop the heartbreaking loss of our precious rainforests and vulnerable species around the world. #RainforestAlliance #WeAreAllIn #Donation #DonateNow #GiveBack #Funding #Fundraising #Philanthropy #Community #PeopleAndNature #KeepForestsStanding #JoinOurAlliance #ClimateChange #ClimateAction #ClimateSolutions #ClimateResilience

Land trusts are non-profit or charitable organizations that acquire land or stewardship rights to land for the purposes of conservation. These properties help provide natural climate solutions, prevent flooding and protect a range of species at risk, including certain birds, bats, and native plants. Through fundraising and grants, Land Trusts can purchase properties or properties can be donated by landowners. Through Conservation Easement Agreements, the owners can retain the land but land trusts can manage and care for the land over time OLTA, collectively with our members, conserve and manage over 117,000+ acres and 1,100 properties in Ontario! Learn more about how land trusts work and how OLTA supports land trusts by visiting our website: www.olta.ca #OntarioLandTrusts #ConservationOntario #LandStewardship

We need wildfire reform and better forest management practices in BC. The McDougall Creek fire did not need to happen; excess red tape & bureaucracy, unwillingness to work with local experts, and mismanagement is what caused the fire to get out of control. Wildfires need to be put out rapidly and forests need to be managed effectively. An incredible group of locals, including several Registered Professional Foresters, are looking to make a documentary highlighting how we can turn the dial and bring health and prosperity back to our forest and prevent wildfires from devastating our province. It's about the environment, preservation, sustainability, and even economic stability. For our forests, and for our future. Please watch this trailer and consider donating to make this vision a reality! https://lnkd.in/gzUs6EWu

Having the Bureau of Land Management publishing these types of documents further highlights the strength of the outdoor industry as a critical economic driver.

We're just 4 days away from the Weston-super-Half in aid of Project Seagrass. Many of the population aren't in the know when it comes to seagrass, which is why we are fundraising and sharing important facts along the way, please give, if you can, to our fundraiser for Project Seagrass (link in comments). Seagrasses only occupy 0.1% of the seafloor yet are responsible for 18% of organic carbon buried in the oceans. Seagrass meadows are able to store carbon in their sediment, essentially ‘locking’ away large amounts of carbon and acting as a carbon store. Help protect seagrass meadows by supporting our fundraiser for Project Seagrass. #fundraising #seagrass #projectseagrass #climatechange #climateaction #climatecrisis #justgiving #halfmarathon

Can corporate partnerships between businesses and charities ever really work? Or have Tesco and WWF shown that the potential to muddy the waters is simply too great?
