The Rainforest
Saving rainforest for today and for our future
|
We all hear a lot about rainforests & deforestation these days. The deforestation of our rainforests is not good news for human or animal wellbeing. We need healthy rainforests to keep us all healthy. So sponsoring half an acre or more of rainforest and other wildlife habitats is a really worthwhile & special present. To protect one species, we need to protect the land & habitat it calls home.
Since 1989, the World Land Trust has worked to preserve the world's most biologically important and threatened lands. It has helped purchase & protect 400,000 acres plus of habitats rich in wildlife in Asia, Central and South America and the UK. You can find out about their successfully completed projects here and their current project list here in Argentina, Brazil Ecuador & Paraguay. Through its various projects, the World Land Trust has helped protect the habitat of many animals - birds, reptiles & amphibeans, mammals & fish.

To give someone a lasting, meaningful gift which will help animals & people, then click here to visit the World Land Trust. A gift/donation of £25 will help save quarter of an acre of animals' habitat, although this may vary from one country to another. To give you an idea, an acre is about the size of a football/soccer pitch.
There's a list of FAQs here which will help you find answers to any questions you may have such as why should you go wtih the World Land Trust as opposed to any other organisation offering you the chance to sponsor rainforest? (For starters, they work closely with local conservation groups and they have a track record of success. They are based in Suffolk, where their outgoings are low.) Their staff & trustees have a high level of expertise; Sir David Attenborough is a patron - find out here why he supports the World Land Trust.
You can find palm oil free gift ideas here. The human demand for palm oil in many products is destroying acre after acre of rainforest - so this is a good time to give people a gift with a difference which doesn't cause more rainforest to be cut down.
