LAND & CLIMATE
To address the climate crisis, it's not nearly enough to get off fossil fuels. 30% of greenhouse gas emissions are caused by deforestation and the abuse of land. Our mission embraces both prevention and cure.
We must change the policies and billions in subsidies which now drive and reward deforestation and the most destructive forms of agriculture. Incentives must shift to reward innovative stewardship of living systems. We look for visionary leaders and organizations that are leading the way in addressing climate change through land use management and advocacy. Our intent is to address the drivers of the systems leading to climate change, rather than to protect a particular landscape, forest, or farm. We fund efforts to regenerate ecosystems, along with efforts to reduce harm while thinking about the whole system.
