The Impact of Rain Forest Rescue
The Arbor Day Foundation and its partners and supporters have rallied together to make great strides in preserving and restoring rain forests. We partner with international and local conservation groups to:
-
Introduce sustainable practices.
Local residents are being educated on the importance of making a living off of the rain forest in a sustainable way.
-
Protect remaining rain forest land.
We help partners convert large portions of the rain forests to protected areas, preserving the landscape and culture of these regions.
-
Replant the forests of Madagascar.
Tree planting efforts are underway to rebuild the lush landscape. Locals are actively involved in reestablishing the rain forest canopy there, creating habitat for lemurs and a better way of life for the people of Madagascar.
-
Coffee cherries that are grown sustainably under the rain forest canopy produce a higher-quality coffee, protect rain forest land, and support communities. Support shade-grown coffee farmers.
Growing coffee under the canopy of the rain forest protects the rain forest and produces quality coffee that is rich in flavor. Learn more about the Arbor Day Coffee program and buy sustainably sourced, shade-grown coffee today.
