How corporate action can fight deforestation: and why it pays for your business to step up

June 2020

View our infographic

As businesses face new and critical global challenges posed by COVID-19, the importance of corporate action to protect and restore the world’s forests is clear. This means working with nature, protecting vital natural resources and seizing opportunities to act.

2020 was slated to be the year to end corporate-driven deforestation, but the majority of companies failed on key commitments. We cannot continue on the current pathway of deforestation if we want to avoid risks to people, planet and business. Measuring and managing these risks is crucial in ensuring resilient business and supply chains and thriving economies and communities.

Together, we can work towards transformational change. Companies have the power to drive this change at scale.

Transparency and reporting on efforts to act are more critical than ever before.
