Today, July 24th, is Earth Overshoot day—8 days earlier than last year.😱 This means that we have already used up 1 year's worth of resources, and the rest of the year will be tapping into future resources.There are many actions that we can take to move the date, but one of the most powerful is protecting forests. 🌳Forests absorb carbon, protect biodiversity, and help restore the planet’s balance.Join us and be part of the solution: standfortrees.org (fb)

Meet our forest hero Diana! 🌿 Diana is part of the Shipibo indigenous community and works for Nii Biri, a social enterprise set up as part of our Nii Kaniti project in Peru. Through Nii Biri, Diana helps coordinate and support indigenous businesses - from promoting their products in regional and national markets to helping communities innovate and increase value.⁣ ⁣ 📣 "We don't have big industries, we just have the forest — and all we can do is give value to it," she says.⁣ ⁣ 🌳 The Nii Kaniti project protects over 127,000 hectares of threatened Amazonian rainforest.
