Protect tropical rainforests
People need forests. For years, Conservation International (ci) has worked to protect tropical forests around the world. Working directly with local communities, CI ensures that forests are worth more standing than cut down.
More that 1.6 billion people depend directly
on forests for shelter, livelihoods, water and food.
Worldwide, tropical forests and other ecosystems can provide 30 percent of the solution to climate change.
Protecting forests helps ensure a
supply of safe, clean water for people and wildlife.
