Why it Matters:

!More than 50% of all species on Earth are found in Rainforests, although these cover less than 1% of the Earth’s surface. Healthy forests are the 'Lungs of our Planet' and vital to all life on Earth.

interesting facts on nzThe Earth's forests are in crisis. We've already lost 80% of old-growth forests World-wide. According to the United Nations, more than 37.5 million acres of Rainforests are lost annually - an area the size of the state of Georgia, USA or the country of Cambodia. Worldwide extinction rates are accelerating and Rainforest species are being lost daily…

But, we believe that most people care deeply about our Natural World. Most people can give a little and have friends that can do the same. This is the basis for this Appeal. With your help, this Rainforest-Help Appeal can completely protect the Valley's ancient Rainforest.

We're not asking much… take action now!

"The loss of genetic and species diversity by the destruction of natural habitats is the worst of all possible catastrophes for the human race, worse even than economic collapse or limited nuclear war, because it will take millions of years to correct. This is the folly that our descendants are least likely to forgive us for.” ~ Edward O. Wilson, Pulitzer Prize-winning Professor Emeritus, Harvard University.
