Tropical deforestation and habitat destruction are increasing, driven by the global demand for forest-risk commodities, such as imported beef, palm oil, soy for livestock feed, coffee, cacao, timber, paper and pulp.
At the frontline of deforestation, Indigenous Peoples are suffering climate impacts and severe human rights abuses, and biodiversity is decreasing at an alarming rate.
To tackle the climate and nature crises, support Indigenous communities and help prevent further pandemics, we must reduce consumption of unsustainably produced forest commodities.
So, whether you’re an organisation, group or individual, commit to taking action today by reading our Practical Ways to Protect Tropical Forests guide below.
