Gabriel Paun has been attacked, poisoned, and forced into hiding, all to protect a forest that has survived at least since the last ice age.
He has dedicated his life to defending one of Europe’s last ancient forests.
In our newest mission, we’re joining him in Romania to deploy a groundbreaking invention that could finally stop illegal loggers in their tracks and protect this forest before it’s lost for good.

Europe was once a continent of trees. But today, less than 1% of its primary forest remain. What’s left now is under attack from illegal logging, corruption, and the timber mafia.
In 5 days, we’re launching a new mission to protect these priceless forests.
We’re heading to Romania to team up with the man risking his life to defend these wild places. Together, we’re using a groundbreaking invention to stop the chainsaws before it’s too late. Stay tuned!

A baby seal, just a couple of weeks old, washes up alone on a beach in Poland, 600 kilometres from where she should be. 🦭
She’s not the only one. More and more pups are showing up like this, separated from their mothers, malnourished, and too young to survive on their own.
So we went to the Baltic coast to understand what’s really happening and to help these pups return to the wild.

Planet Wild is a global community of people that deeply care about the planet. We're on a mission to bring back endangered species, clean up our waterways from plastic and to rewild entire forests to give them back to nature.
How it works:
1. On a monthly basis, our team selects impactful environmental projects;
2. The contributions from our global community are used to fund these projects;
3. Community members get video reports from our environmental missions, seeing the impact that they are unleashing with their contributions;
4. Step by step, our global community restores nature, increases biodiversity, unleashing a much needed systematic change.
