"By supporting this project, you help preserve a remote tropical rainforest that was in danger of becoming a cattle ranch.

The Envira Amazonia project protects 39,000 hectares of tropical rainforest alongside the Jurupari River, near the city of FeijÔöťÔöé in the state of Acre, Brazil. A highway built in the 1980s has consistently increased deforestation and development pressure in the area, especially for cattle ranching. The project was formed in response to these pressures.  It prevents the emission of more than 12.6 million tonnes of CO2, preserves an extraordinary amount of biodiversity ├ö├ç├┤ especially rare birds ├ö├ç├┤ and directly benefits local communities.  Landowners are implementing many activities to assist communities and mitigate deforestation pressures, such as agricultural support, deforestation patrols, and sustainable economic alternatives.
