Our 2016 Highlights

2016 has been an incredible year for Cool Earth, thanks to more smart people backing our model than ever before.

We know that giving control back to local people is the most effective way to keep rainforest standing. That’s why this year we made sure every decision was made where it matters: on the forest floor.

Celebrate strong families Forest is only protected when families are strong and healthy enough to defend it. It’s no surprise that health and nutrition are priorities for all our indigenous partners.

Celebrate Forest Health The more biodiverse a forest is, the more carbon it holds. That’s why we use the health of the forest and the species in it as an indicator of the success of our partnerships.

Celebrate Growing Incomes The bulk of Cool Earth’s investments in communities goes towards building sustainable incomes. In the last year alone, income from cacao has doubled in Pajonal, helping the village become a self-determining, thriving rainforest community.

Celebrate New Beginnings It’s Cool Earth’s tenth birthday next year and we’re going for a step change in the way we operate. In preparation, this year we’ve welcomed new villages, new team members, and new ways of working. Together we’ll save a million acres in 2017.
