Shark Trust

The Ocean Campaign – Protection of the Oceanic sharks
Research published in early 2021 confirmed that over three-quarters of oceanic sharks and rays are now at risk of extinction due to the destructive impact of overfishing. The global abundance of this group of species has declined by 71% over the last 50 years. If you feel that shark and ray populations deserve a fair chance, please donate to ensure we can continue to activate change for these incredible and remarkable animals.

Fusion Farms

The Future of Farming – Helping combat climate crisis effects on food production
Imagine a world where a huge variety of globally produced food could be grown organically using renewable and sustainable methods, at a local level, involving local employment, available all year, protected from the negative impacts of nature that result in crop devastation and without harmful plastic packaging or a carbon footprint of its transportation.>It’s already happening with Fusion Farms.

Endangered Animal Protection – Protecting Eswatini’s rhinos from poaching
Black rhino are IUCN-listed as Critically Endangered. The population has declined by an estimated 98% since 1960, reaching as low as 2,410 in 1995, mainly due to poaching. South Africa’s white rhino population dropped from 15,625 at the end of 2017 to 12,968 at the end of 2021. This decline represents the lowest number of white rhino in South Africa since pre-2005.

Coral Reef Alliance

Coral Reef Protection – The fight against coral bleaching and disease
CORAL is working hard to collect data on coral reef bleaching so we can better predict and protect coral reefs from consequences of climate change. The results of this project will be shared with the greater marine conservation community so we can all understand how climate change is threatening coral reefs and use this knowledge to help save them.

Restore Forest

Urban Reforestation – Miyawaki Mini Forest Planting
Restore Forest use an ancient technique. Private individuals, corporates, Local governments can give back unutilised land to nature. Using a min. of 100m2, rapid positive results 20x greater than that of traditional forestry planting methods is achieved. Trees grow 10 x faster this way with a 90% survival rate as opposed to 50% in other methods. Help Restore Forest return land to nature.

How Many Elephants

Elephant protection – Bush Babies Vehicle Purchase
Funds will purchase a vehicle (£5000) for The Black Mambas, Africa’s first all-female ranger team, based in the Greater Kruger National Park in South Africa. Since their inception in 2013, elephant and rhino poaching has reduced by 76%. These women are working hard to protect wildlife and wild spaces, plus educate local communities on how to conserve and preserve their natural heritage.

RAIN

Forests of the future – Reforestation and ecosystem restoration

Millions of km² of forests have been lost in Brazil and around the world. RAIN brings back the forests via a network of local projects reforesting, regenerating and rewilding degraded land.

Rainforest Saver

Agroforestry to replace slash and burn farming of tropical rainforest
We teach a technique of agroforestry called Inga Alley Cropping to small farmers and indigenous groups in the Ecuadorian Amazon, and village communities in Cameroon in the Congo Basin. This gives them an alternative to cutting and burning small patches of forest for new fields and enables them to grow high-nutrient, chemical-free crops inside the Inga alleys with yields often 10-15 times more than outside the alleys. The system reduces carbon emissions from forest loss, and sequesters carbon in the soil and trees, while restoring the soil, combating poverty, and protecting places with high biodiversity.

Cross River Gorillas

Cross River Gorillas
With fewer than 300 individuals estimated to exist in the wild, the Cross River Gorilla Programme is a collaborative effort to protect the world’s rarest great ape. Since 2004, our work has led to the successful gazettement of several protected areas. We are also developing a chain of Community Forest Reserves, together forming a rainforest corridor. Conservationists recently captured images of a group of rare Cross River gorillas with multiple babies in Nigeria’s Mbe mountains – a sign that the subspecies once feared to be extinct is reproducing amid protection efforts.

Orangutan Land Trust

Gardeners of the Forest

The Mission of Orangutan Land Trust is to enable sustainable solutions for the survival of the orangutan in the wild. We do this by supporting local teams on the ground to secure, protect and restore critical orangutan habitat. Such efforts include community and stakeholder engagement, fire-prevention and fire-fighting, patrols, planting of trees and creation of wildlife corridors, and the rescue, rehabilitation and release of displaced or at-risk orangutans. We also commit ourselves to contributing to global solutions, vis a vis ensuring that those industries that most threaten the survival of the orangutan transition to sustainable practices which do not cause deforestation, habitat loss or loss of biodiversity.
