NEW Report from the informal Working Group

The Informal Working Group for Interim Finance for REDD (Reduced Emissions from Deforestation and Degradation) released its discussion document earlier this month. The report proposes setting up a global interim REDD+ arrangement that unites developed and developing countries' efforts around a common goal - to reduce deforestation and degradation by 25 per cent by 2015.

Its keystone would be the establishment of a results-based incentive structure. The arrangement would see a commitment from developed countries to pay those participating developing forest countries for reducing forest-based emissions. In return, the forest countries would commit to place their development paths on a low carbon trajectory.

The Informal Working Group was established following a historic meeting hosted by HRH The Prince of Wales when the G20 leaders were in London in April. The IWG stresses in this report that, "without REDD+, the goal of limiting the rise in global temperatures to 2°C above pre-industrial levels will be much harder, and substantially more expensive, to achieve."

This week, HRH The Prince of Wales will host an international forest meeting to discuss these findings and we'll share the results of that meeting with you next week.

NEW PRP VIRAL Film

We have created a new viral film to explain the relationship between climate change and rainforest destruction that conveys the urgency of finding a solution.  The film uses an airplane emergency card as its theme.

FROGS out on the town!

Interior designer, Kelly Hoppen and fashion designer, Vivienne Westwood hosted a gathering of PRP supporters on Thursday night to help raise awareness of this important issue.

Well-known faces, including artist Tracey Emin, comedian Alan Carr, and jewellery designer Stephen Webster turned up that night to join the call to action, but they were upstaged by their guests - some giant frogs.

Kelly, Vivienne, Tracey, Alan and Stephen were among ten supporters who designed Giant Frog sculptures for the project.  Other frogs came from Olivia Newton-John, JLS, Rod Stewart, Joanna Lumley and Melissa Odabash.
