10.15.2009 Stop Deforestation -- Stop Climate Change! Shrinking arctic ice. Increased tropical cyclone activity. Severe droughts. Scientists say we’re already beginning to experience the effects of climate change -- but it’s not too late to change the course.

That’s more than the emissions from trains, planes and automobiles combined. 10.8.2009 New Report: Survival of Great Apes Linked to Responsible Forestry A new study by the World Wildlife Fund confirms what the Rainforest Alliance has long believed: responsibly managed forests can provide important conservation benefits for threatened and endangered species.
