Prince's Rainforests Project
Prince's Rainforests Project
"Set up in October 2007 by HRH The Prince of Wales in a speech to WWF, The Prince’s Rainforests Project recognises the global role played by rainforests in both promoting and mitigating climate change. There is a growing awareness of the need to urgently protect the world’s rainforests, their people and their resources. It is into this space that HRH The Prince of Wales has stepped with The Prince’s Rainforests Project, which is seen as the natural progression for a career devoted to concern about the environment.
"The Project is working alongside other governmental and non-governmental initiatives, including the critical United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) process to complement and add to the work they are doing." [1] Member Companies found here.
