Myamyn Conservation Project
Australia
Project Year: 2019
A true blue Aussie legend, the Long-nosed Potoroo, is still under threat. The Potoroo community in the Annya State forest was logged in the 1980’s and visits by feral cats, invasive plants and illegal poaching mean the little guy is still on the endangered list. By protecting against further tree clearing, and replanting with natural vegetation, this project ensures these amazing animals don’t become another extinction statistic.
Afognak Forest Carbon
United States
Project Year: 2019
Logging has long threatened the diverse wildlife of Afognak’s coastal temperate rainforests. The Afognak Forest Carbon project encompasses 8,219 acres of protected old-growth Sitka Spruce forests, lakes, wetlands, and streams, which are home to a diverse set of wildlife such as the Kodiak brown bear, rainbow trout, Arctic char, and several species of Pacific salmon. This project maintains, restores, and protects this pristine wilderness and its wildlife in perpetuity.
Madre de Dios Amazon Conservation
Peru
Project Year: 2019
The Amazon is celebrated as a hub of biodiversity. Yet it remains under constant threat from human interference – most recently as a result of the new Inter Ocean Highway. The Peruvian Madre de Dios rainforest is home to eleven endangered wildlife species (including the jaguar and giant armadillo) and four endangered plant species. This project limits the impact of human immigration and development through sustainable timber concessions, as well as community education and support.

Breathing Space
South India
Project Year: 2018
Breathing Space involves the dissemination of 300,000 durable, affordable and clean energy cookstoves. The project helps families breathe healthier air and spend less time and money on cooking fuel. This places a smaller demand on forests, and emits fewer greenhouse gases, as well as creating a sustainable channel of market distribution.
Paradigm Water Treatment and Cookstove Project
Kenya, Africa
Project Year: 2017
The first initiative to provide access to energy efficient cookstoves and chlorinated water, driving real climate and social change for families in Kenya.
Borneo Rainforest Rehabilitation Project
Borneo, Indonesia
Project Year: 2017
Borneo (along with Sumatra) is the only place where tigers, rhinos, orangutans, and elephants live together. This project aims to restore one of the world’s most biodiverse regions, trapping carbon and providing habitat for this endangered, exotic wildlife.
Tasmanian Native Forest Protection
Australia
Project Year: 2016
Preventing logging in Tasmania’s Central Highlands via carbon credits to preserve the habitat of native species such as the wedge-tailed eagle and Tasmanian devil.
Toyola Clean Cookstoves
Ghana, Africa
Project Year: 2016
Distributing efficient cookstoves that require less wood and produce less smoke, reducing deforestation and creating a healthier living environment.
