If the last year of bushfires, flooding and now COVID-19 has taught us anything, it’s that we live in an interconnected world where our actions and environment are inextricably linked. The Priceless Planet Coalition takes this power connection and, leveraging Mastercard’s powerful network effect, empowers individuals to make positive choices that can make a tangible difference to the world around us.

Mastercard believes that the private sector can do more and make a real impact by combining efforts and engaging businesses and consumers to take action. We cannot go back to old habits that cause further pollution at the expense of our planet. Together with our partners, Mastercard reaches nearly 3 billion people around the world – our goal is to empower businesses and consumers to join us in taking collective action.

Why trees?

Forestation is one of the most effective ways to combat climate change. Key benefits:

"While our own footprint on greenhouse gasses is relatively small,
where we can really make a difference at scale is by using our
network effect to reach our customers and their clients.”
