Description
The mission of the Rainforest Alliance is to protect ecosystems and the
people and wildlife that depend on them by transforming land-use
practices, business practices and consumer behavior. Companies,
cooperatives and landowners that participate in our programs meet rigorous
standards that conserve biodiversity and provide sustainable
livelihoods.
Based in New York City, with offices throughout the United States and
worldwide, the Rainforest Alliance works with people whose livelihoods
depend on the land, helping them transform the way they grow food, harvest
wood and host travelers. From large multinational corporations to small,
community-based cooperatives, we involve businesses and consumers
worldwide in our efforts to bring responsibly produced goods and services
to a global marketplace where the demand for sustainability is growing
steadily.
We set standards for sustainability that conserve wildlife and wildlands
and promote the well-being of workers and their communities. Farms and
forestry enterprises that meet our comprehensive criteria receive the
Rainforest Alliance certification seal. We also work with tourism
businesses, to help them succeed while leaving a small footprint on the
environment and providing a boost to local economies.
