Arlington, Virginia, USA – The following statement was made by Rare CEO Brett Jenks on the passing of Dr. Jane Goodall.
“There isn’t a person working in conservation who is not inspired by the life and contributions of Dr. Jane Goodall. Her authenticity, curiosity, passion, and service were not just gifts to science, but to humanity. We at Rare have a profound respect and affinity for Dr. Goodall, a trailblazer for understanding human nature as a pathway to saving the natural world. She also spoke about the power of individual people to make a meaningful impact in the protection of the planet—something we know to be true.
