The chainsaw massacre of the rainforests is still going strong. While you read this, forest regions of the size of several soccer fields are brought down by timber-companies.

But there is something we can do against it!

The logging industry offered 20 million $ for clearing property. Forest of Life and its Brazilian sister Hileia Associao are on the way to protect this 8.500ha primary rain forest
Floresta da Vida. For this we collect 1 million $ with your assistance.

To protect the forest we operate the Forest of Life Field Station there since
the beginning of 1999 in close co-operation with the
residents.

Please help the Floresta da Vida!

The race against the timber-companies just began.
