Come back to this page in the future for more updates on Right Now Climate Fund projects. Learn more about Amazon’s efforts on nature-based solutions here.

Beyond Europe, the Right Now Climate Fund has invested in a range of projects across the Asia-Pacific region, as well as an Agroforestry and Restoration Accelerator in Brazil, and a $10 million project to help family forest owners sequester carbon across the Appalachian region of the USA.

Five years in, the Right Now Climate Fund helps communities become more climate resilient and enhances biodiversity across Europe through nature-based investments.

In 2021, Amazon dedicated €20 million from the Right Now Climate Fund to nature-based projects across Europe and we are excited to show how we’re partnering with local organisations to put these resources to good use across the continent.

Nature-based solutions are conservation, restoration, and improved land and ocean management activities that increase carbon storage in areas such as forests, wetlands, peatlands, marine areas, and grasslands around the world. These solutions provide additional benefits to preserve the natural world, such as conserving wildlife habitats, protecting biodiversity, improving water quality, and reducing flood risk. All of these benefits can enhance well-being and improve the ability of communities to adapt and mitigate the impacts of climate change.

In 2019, Amazon created the Right Now Climate Fund (RNCF), a $100 million initiative supporting climate resilience and nature conservation in communities around the world. This fund finances nature-based solutions that complement Amazon’s broader operational decarbonisation and sustainability efforts.

The projects under the Right Now Climate Fund are selected based on the magnitude and tangibility of benefit to the environment and their potential positive impact on local communities and livelihoods. Further investments in projects will be announced in coming months.
