As we find out, his money will be used to create and further expand protected areas, so that it will cover up to 30% of the surface of our planet by 2030. The ambitious eighty-three-year-old billionaire, Hansjörg Wyss, who was born in Switzerland and now lives in Wyoming, has previously donated $ 450 million to protect over 40 million hectares of land and water.
He also supported efforts to combat poachers, river restoration, African National Park improvement and many others, while playing a significant role in preventing the fossil fuel industry from degrading protected land.
We have to admit that the world would really be a far better place, if more wealthy residents thought like Mr. Wyss.
