We are fighting for a more sustainable, just and equal planet – for forests to stay standing, biodiversity to thrive and to end the attacks on those protecting their land. To do this, we will target those financing polluting and destructive industries, including those funding mass deforestation.

    Situation

    We are facing a crisis: the lungs of the earth, our tropical forests, that protect us from the worst consequences of the climate crisis, are being destroyed at an alarming rate. Fueled by an insatiable demand for profit, corporations are causing deforestation and governments are turning a blind eye. Without action to end deforestation we have little chance of meeting global climate targets, halting biodiversity loss and protecting the livelihoods of forests communities.

    Solution

    With your help, Global Witness will hold the powerful to account through hard-hitting investigations, campaigning and advocacy across four interconnected climate campaign goals to: - Cut-off the financing behind climate-critical forest destruction - Protect ecosystems and the millions of people whose lives and livelihoods depend on keeping our forests standing - End the abuse and killings of land and environmental defenders - Limit global warming to 1.5 degrees
