United Continental Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: UAL) today announced that for every customer who uses a mobile boarding document on Earth Day, the company will donate $1 to help Protect an Acre with its global nonprofit partner Conservation International.* For customers who use the Continental Mobile App for Android(R) or iPhone(R), the company will double the contribution to $2. Conservation International's Protect an Acre program works to curb tropical deforestation, a leading cause of climate change, while preserving the livelihoods of local communities and the natural habitats of threatened species.

"At the new United, we are taking responsible actions to reduce our impact on the environment," said Toby Enqvist, vice president of environmental affairs and security for United. "Using a mobile boarding pass is a tangible way our customers can join us in our commitment to environmental and social responsibility."

"We greatly appreciate United and Continental's commitment to contribute up to $2 to Conservation International's Protect an Acre program for every customer who uses the paperless mobile boarding option on Earth Day," said Justin Ward, vice president in Conservation International's Center for Environmental Leadership in Business.
