Orangutans need trees to live. But profit-hungry companies are
tearing down and burning their rainforest homes to grow palm oil
trees instead. Orangutans are shot dead when they dare
explore these new plantations.
Mondelez, Nestlé, and Unilever all buy this dirty palm
oil. It’s everywhere, from snacks to detergents and
make-up. These palm oil-thirsty brands promised to clean up their
act by 2020 -- but they’ve failed miserably.
But with your help, we can save the last orangutans from cheap
palm oil.
Your power has already convinced companies like McDonald’s,
Starbucks, and PepsiCo to commit to no-deforestation palm oil
policies. You can help us do it all again -- and save the orangutans
before they’re gone for good.
A small monthly gift from you will help roll out tried
and true winning tactics to transform the whole industry --
before it’s too late. Can I count on your small monthly donation
today?

Multinational corporations’ greed for cheap palm oil has
decimated the rainforests where orangutans live. Every year,
millions of acres of pristine rainforest are destroyed -- and
replaced by huge palm oil plantations.
Deprived of their natural habitat, orangutans
starve. When they feed off palm fruits on plantations,
they’re shot. Villagers often find dead orangutans
-- in 2018, one unlucky orangutan was shot 130 times in Borneo.
A monthly donation from you, Vladimir, would put
us one step ahead of palm oil villains. Just a few
coins a month will help us get the necessary intel, respond to more
tip-offs, and roll out even bolder tactics to compete with Nestlé,
Mondelez, and Unilever’s well-oiled, well-funded marketing
machines.
With your continued support, we can force the palm oil industry
to adopt and enforce stronger standards to protect the rainforest.
We CAN save the orangutans before it's too late -- but we can only
do that with you by our side.

The industry had a firm deadline to achieve its no-deforestation
goal by 2020. But instead of actually doing anything about it,
it was all empty promises and expert
greenwashing.
Campaigning to push the palm oil industry to do the right thing
costs money -- whether it’s with brand-jamming ads and billboards,
viral videos, or commissioning research to dig up dirt on them.
We may never match the deep pockets of Unilever and
Nestlé, but when all of us chip in a little bit, we become powerful
enough to take them on.
