About Canopy:

There are few environmental organizations that can match Canopy in its unflinching commitment to saving the world’s forests and the many species that depend on them, while having the pragmatic acumen necessary to help companies do better by those forests” – Margaret Atwood

Canopy is an award-winning not-for-profit organization dedicated to protecting the world’s forests, species and climate, and supporting the advancement of community rights. Canopy collaborates with more than 850 companies to implement robust environmental policies, catalyze innovative solutions, transform unsustainable supply chains and secure forest conservation and human rights.

Canopy is a nimble, fast-paced, results-driven conservation organization with a strong track record of success. We know that our planet is under stress and believe that change is long overdue. We think 800-year-old trees don’t need to be used to make packaging, t-shirts or junk mail – and we’re committed to doing all we can to keep them standing. We love chocolate and playing charades. Working hard is in our DNA - as is having fun and being creative. Pragmatic and audacious, we are driven to produce results at a proportional scale to the environmental problems our world is grappling with. We are part of the growing movement that believes Nature Needs Half – a science driven initiative that recommends 30-50% of the world’s forests need to be protected by 2030, to ensure forest ecosystems are able to fulfil the ecological functions and services we need for life on Earth.
