Why Mountains Matter

Mountains sustain half of humanity, yet have no global champion. Until now.

Forests have advocates. Oceans have protectors. Mountains supply fresh water to billions, yet remain overlooked. Planet 5 exists to change that, to prove that prosperity and preservation can grow together.

Planet 5 unites art, guardianship, and business partnerships to protect mountains through prosperity, not charity. Protect the Peaks that sustain us all.

Our Flagship Initiative

Coffee & Wildlife Corridor - Nepal

Sustainable business proves itself in the field. Our 10-year, $25 million commitment to Nepal's coffee corridor connects farmer prosperity with wildlife preservation across three national parks including Everest. When coffee farmers thrive, red pandas, Himalayan black bears, and 280+ bird species thrive alongside them.

Join the May 2026 Nepal Expedition and witness this work in action.
