Abstract: Abstract Rainforest Action Network (RAN) is an organization founded in 1985 to work for the protection of rainforests and the human rights of those living in and around those forests. According to the RAN website, their mission statement is to campaign “for the forests, their inhabitants and the natural systems that sustain life by transforming the global marketplace through education, grassroots organizing and non-violent direct action”. Moreover, according to the same source, their “campaigns leverage public opinion and consumer pressure to turn the public stigma of environmental destruction into a business nightmare for any American company that refuses to adopt responsible environmental policies” [1].
