Out of responsibility for our planet



We are Fund The Planet
Fund The Planet is a Germany-based conservation initiative active in the Peruvian Amazon. We purchase legally protected rainforest areas and transform them into a public nature reserve that may not be sold, logged, or built on. Every square meter we protect remains wild and untouched. Our community members become founders of this growing nature reserve. They track the areas they protect online and become part of a global community committed to restoring the balance between people and nature.
Our unique approach
Fund The Planet was born from a trio of friends and co-founders who witnessed first-hand the stark contrasts of beauty and devastation during an expedition into the heart of the Amazon. By offering them alternative sources of income, we empower them to manage their land. But supporting rainforest landowners wasn't enough. We wanted to use technology to create a global movement.
Our vision for the future
It's not just about saving a few trees, it's about rewriting history. We're building a future where environmental sustainability is woven into the fabric of everyday life. A world where your choices - from the products you buy to the investments you make - contribute directly and responsibly to the preservation of rainforests and the continued existence of our planet... Let's finance the planet together!

Frequently Asked Questions
How is Fund The Planet different from other environmental organizations?
We buy forest land ourselves instead of just supporting projects, protect it for the long term, and make every step verifiable: map, coordinates, updates, and a public protection register.
To the Protection Register →Does my contribution really protect rainforest?
Yes, and you can check it yourself: You can see your protected area anytime in the digital Rainforest Explorer and receive regular updates and reports. Full transparency, verifiable at any time.
See full transparency →How do you protect the area on the ground, for example against illegal logging?
We are the legal owners of the land and secure it together with local communities, through patrols and AI-supported monitoring. That keeps the protection binding for the long term.
Who owns the protected land?
Fund The Planet, operated by Munich-based Green Token GmbH, acquired the land in a legally secure purchase and places your area under protection. Your area is assigned to you and visible in the Explorer.
