Stand For Trees tackles deforestation at its core – by preventing mature, resilient trees from being chopped down. Our projects protect 4.5 million hectares of tropical forests and prevent 700 million tonnes of carbon emissions; improve quality of life for over a million people, including local and indigenous communities; and safeguard unique ecosystems and thousands of endangered species. We use REDD+, a pay-for-performance model that requires independent, third-party verification and which only rewards success. With us, anyone can save forests and heal the climate.
