| You are exclusively invited to our next Beneath the Canopy webinar, taking place Wednesday, October 29, from 11:00 AM – 12:00 PM EST on Zoom. |
|
| Join us for an energizing conversation as Daniel Katz, co-founder and board chair at the Rainforest Alliance, and Rhett Ayers Butler, founder and CEO at Mongabay, make the case for optimism as a catalyst for environmental action. |
|
| In a year marked by record deforestation—and loss of key funding for the climate and conservation sectors—it’s easy to feel discouraged. But Rhett and Daniel argue that when paired with impact, optimism is a powerful strategy.
| At the Rainforest Alliance, optimism is at the heart of everything we do. What began with Daniel’s innate hope and determination in the 1980s has grown into a global movement—supporting 7.9 million farmers and workers across Rainforest Alliance Certified farms and landscape projects spanning more than 25 million hectares. That early spark of hope has only grown louder and brighter through the strength of our alliance. |
|
| In this webinar, you will also hear from our inspiring colleagues, Michael Gibbons, Director of Creative and Communications, and N’Deye N’Débane Sarr, Communications Manager for West and Central Africa. They’ll share how positive storytelling and on-the-ground success stories in Cameroon and the Democratic Republic of the Congo are making the case for climate action grounded in real results. |
|
| Whether you’re a sustainability professional, storyteller, donor, or simply seeking hope in the environmental space, this conversation will leave you energized. |
