April 2009: CI and United Airlines are teaming up in the month of April to educate and build awareness for customers on issues of deforestation and climate change. United's onboard Hemispheres magazine this month is a special environmental issue built around the theme of "Every Action Counts."  The issue highlights our partnership by featuring Harrison Ford in the first-person Voices column discussing his commitment to preventing deforestation and encouraging fliers to protect an acre. CI's video PSA on deforestation is also being shown on all domestic flights during the month of April.

2003: United Airlines and CI developed a public service announcement, featuring Harrison Ford, for use on United flights to educate its customers on biodiversity conservation and CI.

December 2001: United coordinated with CI to airlift 1,200 turtles confiscated from a shipment destine for China's illegal food trade. The turtles, including 12 highly endangered species, were transported to sanctuaries in Florida.

United has designated CI as a beneficiary of its onboard coin-collection program resulting in support to CI's conservation efforts.

United collaborated with Starbucks Coffee Company in 2002, to raise awareness about CI's Conservation Coffee program by serving Shade Grown Mexico Coffee on its domestic flights.

United designated CI as a member organization of United's Charity Miles program, allowing frequent fliers to donate their miles to CI.

In 1998 and 1999, United helped supported two CI education programs, including the web-based "Eco-Adventure" program for students, and the "Rainforest in a Box" project for young children.

United Airlines is also a member of CI's Business and Biodiversity Council, a community of companies committed to leveraging their business experience and resources to conserve biodiversity.
