The Amazon
rainforest is one of the most beloved ecosystems in the
entire world, and for good reason. The
Amazon serves as a main carbon sink, making it one of
the most important natural ways to combat global climate
change. It also is home to some 3
million known species, with nearly 500
different mammals calling the forest home and over 1,300
birds living there full time or using it as a vital
stopover during migration. But the Amazon is at
extremely high risk, with an estimated 200,000 acres
burned every single day. The main cause of such
unthinkable destruction of a near-universally treasured
place? Beef production.
Sign the petition now
to tell McDonald's, Goya, Albertsons, and Kroger that
they must stop using JBS beef, which primarily sources
from Brazil, as a supplier!
Once the
Amazon is gone, we cannot simply bring it
back. The ecological consequences of
losing one of the largest rainforests in the world are
terrifying, and it is quite literally impossible to
predict just how many species will go extinct and how
much carbon will be released back into the atmosphere if
every acre is burned. Sign the petition now
to tell McDonald's, Kroger, Goya Foods, and Albertsons
to stop using JBS as a
supplier!
