Its I Love Amazon Week and Sky Rainforest Rescue want you to join the celebration and do your bit to keep rainforests standing. We’re losing an area of Amazon rainforest the size of three football pitches every single minute. It’s an urgent problem, but we can all do something to solve it.

Through Sky Rainforest Rescue over 5,000 people in the Brazilian state of Acre have committed not to slash and burn their land – which is helping to save one billion trees from deforestation. It’s an incredible achievement.

Sky and WWF are launching ‘I Love Amazon Week’ to inspire 5,000 people in the UK and Ireland to match this commitment by pledging to be forest-friendly and making the right choices in their day-to-day life. Will you be one of them?

We’ll send you all the things you need to start making forest-friendly choices. And share your pledges with the people of Acre to show that together we can make a difference for the Amazon.

Ben Fogle shows his support for I Love Amazon Week

“As an adventurer, I’ve been lucky enough to travel to the Amazon and experience what a uniquely special place it is. Not only does it play a key role in our planet’s environment, it’s home to a wealth of wildlife, with a new species of animal or plant discovered every three days. Considering how valuable the Amazon rainforest is, it’s devastating to think that we’re losing an area the size of three football pitches of it every minute.  Signing up to I Love Amazon Week will not only show your support, but will give you simple tips on how you can do your bit to help protect it.” Watch the video on YouTube
