What is 1% for the Planet?

1% for the Planet was founded in 2002 by Yvon Chouinard, Patagonia’s founder, and Craig Mathews, founder of Blue Ribbon Flies, to combat greenwashing and hold companies accountable for their environmental impact.

Their mission is simple: businesses profit from Earth’s resources, so they should contribute to protecting them.

Over 20+ years, 1% for the Planet has grown to 6,500 partners in 111 countries, generating $583 million in certified donations.

“This is not philanthropy. This should be a cost of doing business. It’s paying rent for our use of the planet.”
