Sir David Attenborough
“The idea behind Cool Earth is that if we can help pay to conserve an acre then we can make a real difference. Perhaps the biggest difference we will make in our whole lives.”

Ricky Gervais
"There’s only so much an individual can do to halt climate change. But if you support Cool Earth, you’ll do at least ten times more to save the world. Join Cool Earth."

Our Projects
Cool Earth currently has projects in Peru, Brazil and Ecuador - with new sites in development. The project areas have been specifically chosen because:
- They are located at the frontier of destruction, where rainforest is immediately threatened by human activities like logging and cattle ranching.
- Either their location or their conservation acts as a protective blockade for tens of thousands of acres of forest behind them, ensuring our sponsors are protecting far more than their own acres.
- They are mature rainforests with uniquely high levels of biodiversity reflecting thousands of years of undisturbed growth, wildlife and species.
Cool Earth places your sponsorship with a local trust to help fund community based livelihoods and educations services whilst working with indigenous peoples to protect the rainforest around the clock.
