We’re working hard to keep five of the healthiest and most biologically unique wilderness areas healthy and vibrant.

Unlike biodiversity hotspots, much of the original vegetation in these regions - at least 70 percent - has stayed intact over the years. Besides providing homes to huge numbers of plants and animals found nowhere else, they are among the last places you can find indigenous communities practicing their traditional customs and lifestyles. The free services and resources these regions provide make them the most valuable natural regions on land, recently estimated at over 2 trillion US dollars per year!

Conserving these areas today will prevent them from becoming the hotspots of tomorrow.
