Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez Bezos are putting $100 million behind the idea that the world’s most endangered animals and plants can still be pulled back from extinction.
The Bezos Earth Fund is one of nine founding members of the new Species Recovery Alliance, a $500 million commitment announced Oct. 16 at the Leaders’ Summit of COP17, the UN biodiversity conference in Yerevan, Armenia, by Cristián Samper, the fund’s managing director and leader of nature solutions.
