This is a decisive decade for climate action. The world needs to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions while helping people adapt to the climate change that is already occurring. Together with its partners, the Rainforest Alliance is committed to accelerating climate adaptation and mitigation. We do this by focusing on locally led and nature-based solutions, including forest protection, restoration, and improved land management practices to increase carbon storage, avoid greenhouse gas emissions, and build resilience to climate impacts.
This COP we are:
Leila Yassin, the Rainforest Alliance’s global advocacy manager for nature, demystifies the climate change negotiations taking place at COP28.
We are developing solutions with farming and forest communities that address the climate crisis while improving livelihoods, advancing human rights, and conserving forests and biodiversity. This white paper provides an overview of our climate work.
How the Rainforest Alliance is promoting locally-led and nature-based climate action across farms, forests, rural landscapes, and supply chains.
For 35 years we have helped farmers adapt to climate impacts and build sustainable livelihoods while supporting companies to achieve their decarbonization goals. Here’s how.

For farmers, sustainability is a journey. The destination? Regenerative agriculture.... Continue Reading
A key aspect of climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is helping farmers to improve farm productivity, thus achieve higher incomes and improved standard of living. Our four main interconnected areas of work—certification, landscape management, tailored supply chain services, and advocacy—have been designed to help support this goal.
Our future climate stability depends on achieving net-zero emissions as quickly as possible, and natural climate solutions are essential to reaching that goal. The Rainforest Alliance is positioned for impact in this space—working across 70 countries and global supply chains in many of the most critically important natural landscapes throughout Latin America, Africa, and Asia.
