dense forests found in Pasifika, 2) is
much more cost-effective than other
carbon solutions that can achieve
similar scale, and 3) is a grossly underfunded investment opportunity.
To this end, in 2021 Nia Tero joined with
eight private foundations in committing
to invest $5 billion to protect 30% of
Earth’s land and ocean by 2030.
Announced in September as the
Protect Our Planet Challenge, this
alliance marks the largest private
funding commitment ever for the
safeguarding of our shared planetary
home, with the leadership and guidance
of Indigenous peoples.
It is through Indigenous guardianship
of vital ecosystems that we stand a
chance to push back against climate
destruction. We hope that alliances like
these inspire collective momentum and
reveal the scale of the task at hand, and
we thank all of our supporters for
investing in this vision alongside us.
