Rainforest
protection is not a profit machine: Stop the TFFF!
Dear friends of the rainforests,
Together with 50,000 Indigenous people,
environmentalists, and human rights defenders, we took to the
streets in Belém, Brazil. The people around us spoke many languages
– but they all voiced the same demand:
We need real and just climate
action.
The People’s Summit, held alongside the
global climate conference COP30, brought together activists from
around the world and left us inspired and energized. Once again, we
experienced how essential our networks are and how strong our
partners remain – many of whom joined us in Belém. The warmth,
hospitality, and joy of life we encountered in Brazil deeply moved
us.
The official COP30 conference, in
contrast, told quite a different story:
The fate of the world’s rainforests is
being gambled away. At COP30 in Belém, governments launched the
Tropical Forests Forever Facility (TFFF) – a scheme that turns
living forests into a financial product. Billions in public money
will secure investor profits, while Indigenous forest defenders
receive only cents per hectare, and the projects funded can still
drive logging, mining, and agribusiness.
This is a dangerous diversion from
real solutions. Tropical forests are our last line of defense
for the climate and home to millions of people who protect them with
their lives.
Together with 240 organizations,
Rainforest Rescue is raising the alarm: Stop the TFFF. Rainforest
protection is not a profit machine.
Please add your voice now and sign our
petition to tell governments and the UN: Forests are not Wall
Street assets – they are life.
