Frequently asked questions
Square by Square secures at-risk rainforest land in Australia, taking it off the market so it can never be cut down, cleared, or developed.
Once secured, the land is protected and restored by experienced conservation partners, and every Square sold funds the purchase of more rainforest to save.
Because protecting rainforest should be as simple as buying coffee. With Square by Square you know exactly which piece of rainforest you’re safeguarding, how long it is protected, and the impact it creates.
Buying a Square lets you protect a real piece of rainforest and be part of the solution to stop deforestation. It’s a tangible way to act on your values, support biodiversity, and fight climate change.
You can see your Square(s) on the map, share it with others, and be part of our growing community.
Buying Squares helps your company show real commitment to sustainability. Each Square demonstrates transparent, measurable impact from biodiversity protection to climate action.
