From The Sustainable Angler:
The Sustainable Angler joined 1% for the Planet, committing to donate 1% of annual sales to support environmental organizations focused on the environment.
Rick Crawford, creator and host of The Sustainable Angler podcast, had this to say: “My sustainability consultancy, Emerger Strategies, has been a 1% for the Planet member since 2016, and since The Sustainable Angler is now selling merchandise and sponsorships, I thought The Sustainable Angler should giving back too. My reason for wanting to give back is because pollution, climate change, and habitat degradation pose serious risks to our fisheries. That’s why we are committed to making a real impact by funding diverse environmental nonprofits addressing these issues, such as: Charleston Waterkeeper, The Sustainability Institute, Bonefish & Tarpon Trust, and Protect Our Winters to name a few.
‘Currently, only 3% of total philanthropy goes to the environment and, only 5% of that comes from businesses. The planet needs bigger support than this, and our growing network of business members are doing vital work to increase giving and support on-the-ground action. We’re excited to welcome The Sustainable Angler to our global movement,’ says Kate Williams, CEO of 1% for the Planet.
By contributing 1% of their annual sales, thousands of 1% for the Planet members have raised millions in funding to support environmental partners around the globe.
Partners are vetted and approved based on referrals, track record, and environmental focus. With over 5,000 environmental partners in the 1% for the Planet network, every member can find and support the causes that matter most to them.
