Deforestation is devastating the planet’s forests. By turning carbon-based pollutants to oxygen, trees are one of Earth’s best weapons against rising temperatures. That’s why Mastercard set up the Priceless Planet Coalition—a group committed to planting 100 million trees in places with the highest climate, community and biodiversity impact, thanks to our partnership with Conservation International and the World Resources Institute.
