An investment fund that pays out for nature? Mongabay podcast explains the TFFF

The Brazilian government introduced the Tropical Forest Forever Facility (TFFF) to support forest preservation without loans or donations. Six wealthy nations will invest $25 billion as seed capital to attract more funds. The TFFF promises a 5.5% annual return for investors over 20 years, with excess profits going to tropical countries for forest conservation. Experts see potential in the TFFF, but concerns remain about investment strategies, risk management, and impact on other funding mechanisms.
