Stop Companies Using Palm Oil
Palm Oil is a huge problem. 20 square miles of pristine rainforest is chopped and burned every day! WWF says, an area the equivalent size of 300 football fields of rainforest is cleared each hour! In 2007 the Guinness World Records said Indonesia had the worst deforestation. Aswell as deforestation this causes air pollution and world wide problems in the future. Indonesia is the third biggest polluter after the USA and China. By 2020 98% of Indonesia lowland rainforest will be gone! And if nothing is done orangutans will become extinct in the wild within the next 5-10 years, and Sumatran tigers less than 3 years!
Stop Green Palm Certificates
Green Palm Certificates, what a joke. All a company has to do to get one is to buy one! This is lying at its worst. Saying that you have sustainable Palm Oil when they don't. Ben Jenkins from ABC Australia says using Greenpalm Certificates is like saying "We Just Brought some Certificates so we could say we support sustainability even through we have no idea whether our palm oil is made from the tears of homeless Orangutans"
