If a tree falls in the forest when nobody is around, does it make a sound, Friend? What about trees CRASHING down upon terrified orangutans and other precious rainforest wildlife? Animals FLEE in panic as their habitat COLLAPSES around them. A land that was once lush with green, tall treescapes, and vibrant tropical species and plants is now BULLDOZED and FLATTENED to be turned into palm oil plantations. 

Right now, greedy corporations are SLASHING DOWN our rainforests, DECIMATING these great ecosystems, and VIOLENTLY EXPELLING Indigenous Peoples from their ancestral land all for the sake of profit!

Friend, will you remain silent and let corporate bullies commit irreparable crimes and trample on human rights, rainforests, and the many living things that rely on these ecosystems to survive? Or will you act right now to STOP the rampant destruction of our planet before we lose the world’s last standing forests forever?

Rainforests absorb and store carbon from the atmosphere and produce the oxygen that we need to breathe, which is why STOPPING deforestation and SAVING our rainforests is vital to our planet. But did you know that tropical deforestation is also responsible for about 10% of harmful global warming emissions worldwide?

And what’s the leading cause of deforestation and the violent land conflicts that come with it, Friend? You got it -- greedy agribusiness. Meanwhile, powerful investment giant BlackRock continues to finance some of the worst agribusiness companies responsible for this environmental destruction, wielding $10 TRILLION in assets. 
 
Soon, BlackRock’s investments could come at the cost of our planet, unless we ACT NOW! But without support from grassroots environmentalists like you, our efforts won’t make a strong enough impact. 

So, Friend, we’re urgently counting on you: We need to reach our goal of raising $301 from your area by 11:59 P.M. TONIGHT. Make your membership donation now: Push Blackrock to STOP FUNDING DEFORESTATION AND HUMAN RIGHTS ABUSES and protect our planet! >>

Thanks for protecting our rainforests from corporate greed,
Friends of the Earth
