            Brazil’s Pantanal is an environmental wonderland home to 
fascinating species like giant otters, giant armadillos, and the densest 
population of jaguars on the planet.

            But climate change and tourism are putting the world’s largest 
wetland in serious peril: with the land rapidly drying, record-setting fires 
have just killed countless animals, with some estimates in the millions.

            Local groups are sounding the alarm and asking for help 
purchasing and protecting forever an enormous tract of 326,179 acres that 
will prevent exploitation and save animals and communities from future 
disasters.

            So we’re partnering with Rainforest Trust to help make it 
happen. Together we’ve purchased and protected rainforest from Indonesia to 
Colombia – and now we can do it again. Our collective donation to the 
project will be matched 4x, quadrupling our impact – can you help protect 
the Pantanal, and power Ekō's work to protect the planet from corporate 
power?


            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4

            I'll donate $5
            I'll donate $9
            I'll donate another amount


            The Pantanal isn’t as famous as the Amazon but it has become the 
second most popular tourist destination in South America after the 
Galapagos. That pressure, and the desire to install more farmland, has 
driven deforestation and made it increasingly hard to conserve large 
wilderness areas that could keep the ecosystem intact.

            Add climate change to the mix and the Pantanal’s survival is at 
stake. Just look at this year’s fires:





            Or what it does to local wildlife:





            The new Taquari Wetlands State Park would significantly expand 
protection for a critical wildlife corridor, allowing animals to safely 
travel away from the most touristed areas of the Pantanal. And support for a 
new local firefighting team could save literally millions of animals from 
future climate-change-driven fires.

            With your help, we can support Rainforest Trust and local 
partners like Onçafri to make this a reality, as well as continue our 
campaigning to protect biodiversity worldwide, including in the Amazon. We 
can help buy and protect a critical part of the world’s largest wetland – 
our collective donation to the project will be matched 4:1, quadrupling our 
impact. Will you join us?

            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4

            I'll donate $5
            I'll donate $9
            I'll donate another amount

            Your donation will help power Ekō and our campaigns worldwide 
fighting for people and the planet.


            Thanks for all that you do,
            Danny and the Ekō team
