What’s involved?
Palm oil plants being grown in south east Asia are destroying the natural habitat of many endangered species, one in particular is the orangutan. So what can we do to help?
Write to your Federal Member of Parliament and demand that the Federal Government legislate to make Palm Oil labelling compulsory. Write to the Malaysian and Indonesian Embassies and ask what their Governments are doing to stop the establishment of Palm Oil plantations in Orangutan habitat.
Write to any food supplier that lists VEGETABLE OIL as an ingredient and ask them if they use Palm Oil. If so what are they doing to ensure that it doesn't affect Orangutans habitat. Please send us copies of any replies that you receive. Lets work together to put a stop to the palm oil crisis!
Why should people do this?
I want to do this!
