Best of Sustainability In Your Ear: Cool Earth’s Hannah Peck Collaborates With Indigenous Communities To Preserve The Planet’s Remaining Rainforests

In the latest episode of Sustainability In Your Ear, we explore an innovative perspective on rainforest preservation with Dr. Hannah Peck, who serves as the Deputy Director and Policy Lead at Cool Earth. With a decade-long experience in Peru and Papua New Guinea, she discusses Cool Earth’s groundbreaking strategies that prioritize direct assistance rather than conventional carbon offset mechanisms. Challenging the mainstream carbon offset industry, Cool Earth argues that these offsets often mask ongoing emissions instead of offering real solutions. The organization focuses on cutting emissions at the source and investing in the Indigenous communities who are best positioned to safeguard nature. By implementing unconditional cash transfers, Cool Earth empowers these communities to prioritize sustainable practices and forest conservation over economic pressures, thus reducing incentives for deforestation-related activities, including illegal logging and mining.

In 2023, Cool Earth initiated a groundbreaking basic income program in the Amazon rainforest, allocating approximately $5 million annually to Indigenous tribes, where each adult receives a consistent income to fulfill their needs. This endeavor seeks to promote long-lasting sustainability and forest protection, allowing individuals to dedicate their efforts to environmental conservation rather than harmful economic pursuits. Hannah highlights that most of the remaining ecologically healthy rainforests are managed by Indigenous communities. Cool Earth advocates for a more just and effective strategy in addressing climate change. For further insights into Cool Earth’s initiatives and ways to support their mission, visit coolearth.org.
