Plantations certified by the Rainforest Alliance are better for the planet and more sustainable long-term. This is because certified producers are required to protect natural resources and the environment. They use land, water and energy in a sustainable manner. Certified farmers use less artificial fertilizers and pesticides, avoiding pollution and employing better waste management. They also learn how to preserve forest and protected areas, which in turn sustain wild life and plants.
Farmers and agricultural workers are also trained to use smart farming methods with regard to the climate and to adapt farming techniques to climate change.
