Destruction TEXTE

“ It started with heartbreak.

I watched as parts of my island, places I had known since childhood were disappearing.
Forests and animals buried under concrete. I didn't understand why this was happening, so I picked up my camera. I began taking photos of the wild places still untouched, in hopes to save them in a way.

I shared them online with a simple message: look at what we still have… and what we’re about to lose.
I didn’t expect much. But then, something incredible happened.
Support began to pour in, from people across the world!
That’s when I realized: I wasn’t alone.

There was power in this collective care. But love alone wouldn’t save the land.
It needed structure, direction, a way to turn emotion into action.
That’s why Keep Mo’orea Wild was born. It began with a story and a photograph.

Now, it’s a growing movement, one that gives people everywhere the chance to protect this island
one square meter at a time. No matter where you are in the world, this small action helps restore balance, locally and globally for the planet we all share. ”

Temoana POOLE, founder of Keep Mo'orea Wild

Our story

Keep Mo’orea Wild is a non-profit dedicated to protecting the island’s wild lands from overdevelopment.
Founded by local youth using social media to raise awareness, our movement quickly grew as people from all horizons joined to help.

Our mission is simple: protect Mo’orea one square meter at a time, with the vision of expanding this effort to all Polynesian islands and native lands across the globe.

Through land adoptions, we create permanent sanctuaries that preserve biodiversity, safeguard native culture, and fight climate change.

Today, we give everyone the power to protect the planet.
One square meter at a time, we are building a legacy for the wild places we all share.

We are

Our process

find land

We identify land on the market at risk of development. Focusing on biodiverse land, rich in native plants, food forests, rivers, and wildlife.

meet the owner

We share our vision of long-term preservation. Landowners sell to us, knowing the land will remain wild and protected.

create a sanctuary

We fund the land through square meter adoptions, turning love for nature into a collective effort that protects the planet.

Why create sanctuaries ?

stop extinction

Overdevelopment leads to deforestation that destroys the habitats of animals, pushing many species toward extinction.

help climate change

When we preserve wild land, we help the Earth breathe. Each sanctuary becomes a vital part of the global climate solution

preserve Polynesian heritage

For Polynesians, land is both identity and way of life. Their traditions, centered on sustainable living, holistic health, and harmony with nature can guide us all toward a more balanced future.

128.OOO m²

Every minute, the world loses 128,000 square meters of forest.
That’s about the size of 18 soccer fields vanishing from the planet.
This rapid loss destroys wildlife, worsens climate change,
and erases the wild places we all depend on.
