This is a decisive decade for climate action. The world needs to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions while helping people adapt to the climate change that is already occurring. Together with its partners, the Rainforest Alliance is committed to accelerating climate adaptation and mitigation. We do this by focusing on locally led and nature-based solutions, including forest protection, restoration, and improved land management practices to increase carbon storage, avoid greenhouse gas emissions, and build resilience to climate impacts.
This COP we are:
- Focusing on the need to develop and deploy solutions to help producers and rural communities build resilience and adapt to the impacts of climate change.
- Advocating for the acceleration in implementation of and investment in locally-led and nature-based climate action in critical ecosystems.
- Pushing solutions for reducing and storing emissions from the agriculture, forestry, and land use sector.
