They played a big role in having a condition about forestry in the Paris Agreement. Also according to the Founder's Pledge cost-effectiveness model from 2018, donating 12 cents to the coalition will avert a metric ton of CO2. To put it into perspective that can avert around 428 metric tons of C02 if you donate $50.
