The Amazon is at a tipping point. As developers, agribusiness and mining corporations attack the rainforest—paving, plowing, cutting, burning—it could soon turn from an ecosystem that absorbs much of the world’s CO2 to one that contributes to it.
This would be catastrophic for the climate.
But it’s not too late. Thanks in large part to effective action by Amazonian peoples fighting for human rights, corporate accountability and preservation of the rainforest, we still have time to save the Amazon. To do it, we must stand in solidarity with Indigenous Earth defenders.
CREDO Mobile does. In August, we donated to Amazon Watch, a longtime CREDO partner that works in solidarity with Indigenous peoples to protect the rainforest—and our climate. We also made grants to the National Domestic Workers Alliance and the National LGBTQ Task Force Action Fund.
Since 1985, we’ve given over $94 million to groups like these, fighting for the progressive causes you care about. These donations cost our customers nothing. But they mean everything to the nonprofits we support.
Like the sound of that? Join CREDO Mobile. We’re not just a top-flight phone company, we’re a community of people who care about our planet and take action every day to save the only home we’ll ever have.
Join today and you’ll get the nation’s top-rated network, competitive plans and friendly, responsive customer service. And you’ll get much more—an easy, effective way to make a difference in the world.
