Looking for a special eco-friendly gift for Dad?

Send him a free E-card from the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) There are 19 different cards to choose from, each capturing the beauty of wildlife.

Or in just 2 minutes you can send him one of the best gifts ever from Conservation International:

For $15 you can help protect an acre of tropical forest land in your Dad’s honor. The contribution will support Conservation International’s efforts to protect forests and help end climate change.

Every year, burning & slashing of forests releases as much CO2 as all the cars, trucks, and planes in the world – more than 20% of all the carbon dioxide emissions that contribute to global climate change.[1]

Although the forests may be lost far away, the impact is felt here. (Learn more about the program to save tropical forests – thus far 12,863 acres have been protected.)

You can choose one of their stunning Father’s Day E-cards to announce your gift. You can even track Dad’s acre on CI’s website and view information about the animals & living things that inhabit it.

And with your gift you’re keeping tons of climate-changing carbon from entering the atmosphere and helping to end the destruction of forests.
