Let’s get to 300!
The Amazon is in a state of emergency and at a tipping point due to attacks on the rights, lives, and territories of Indigenous and forest peoples. That’s why we must work together to call attention to the destruction, apply pressure where it’s needed, and use our collective voices to protect the Amazon rainforest and its people. This Global Week of Action #GWOA begins with Global Amazon Day, a day to learn about solutions to climate chaos and personally commit to participating throughout the week of action. Join us!
