Join the Global Week of Action for the Amazon September 5 – 11 in solidarity with Indigenous and frontline communities. Learn about critical issues facing the Amazon, its Indigenous communities, and the global climate.

Please join us and Indigenous peoples of the Amazon by participating in these two important webinars:

How to Protect 80% of the Amazon by 2025
Tuesday, September 7 @ 6 am PDT
Register here

The latest science shows that the Amazon rainforest is in danger of flipping toward a drier ecosystem – like a savanna – due to destructive activities such as oil and gas exploitation, development of road infrastructure, and industrial agriculture. But we still have time to avert this tipping point before we witness the dieback of this global treasure.

Engage with panelists sharing evidence-based analysis about the lands that should become protected or sustainably managed and the range of solutions at hand to achieve a sustainable pathway for the Amazon, meeting climate goals at the same time.
 

Can Net Zero Pledges Really Protect the Amazon?
Thursday, September 9 @ 9 am PDT
Register here

As governments and global corporations pledge climate action in accordance with the Paris Climate Agreement, they are turning to Net Zero commitments. But are these enough to protect the Amazon and our global climate?

Join us to discuss this question with Amazonian, Indigenous, and climate leaders who share concerns about Net Zero loopholes and the pitfalls of market and nature-based solutions to protect the climate.
