The mists of the Amazon supply some of California’s desperately-needed rainfall and play a crucial role in absorbing climate pollution – protecting California from raging, deadly wildfires produced by drought.

Deforesting the Amazon can put California, and the world, at grave risk – but now, Californians have a chance to step up and protect the rainforest.

Can you join us to get an exclusive look at this crucial opportunity?
