Wildlife Works

Wildlife Works, a for-profit private company based in Mill Valley, California, implements marketplace initiatives to protect the planet's threatened forests and their endangered wildlife. The company was founded on the premise that if we want wildlife in our world, we have to make it work for local communities who share their environment. Wildlife Works' REDD+ projects in Kenya and The Democratic Republic of the Congo together protect 1.24M acres of forest that provide safe haven for elephants, bonobos, lions, cheetahs and many more iconic species, while supporting over 500 local jobs and reducing over ten million tonnes of carbon dioxide emissions annually. Recognized as a leader in the REDD+ sector, Wildlife Works is the first company in the world to achieve verification of a REDD+ project under the Verified Carbon Standard (VCS) and the Climate Community and Biodiversity Standard (CCB).
