John,

Palm oil deforestation is surging once again in Indonesia, killing the
last orangutans in the wild. If we don’t act now, there won’t be any left
by the end of the decade.

Orangutans are critically endangered and need trees to live. But
profit-hungry companies are tearing down and burning their forest home —
all so the likes of Mondelez and Nestlé can put palm oil in products like
snacks and detergents. But we can change that.

Together we’ve convinced McDonald’s, Starbucks, and PepsiCo to commit to
no-deforestation palm oil policies – now we need your help to do it again.
If just 5000 of us chip in, we can double down on tried and true winning
tactics to transform the whole industry before orangutans are gone
forever. 

Can you chip in now to save the last orangutans?

Deforestation in Indonesia has increased for the second year in a row –
and it’s showing no signs of slowing. Every year, millions of acres of
pristine forest 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 — one unlucky orangutan was shot 130 times in Borneo.

But we’ve won fights like this before, using everything we can against
these greedy companies.

If we all come together, we can force the palm oil industry to adopt and
enforce stronger standards to protect forests — but we can only do that
with you by our side.

Can you chip in to save the orangutans before it's too late?

Every single donation 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.

Campaigning to push the palm oil industry to do the right thing costs
money — whether it’s with brand-damaging 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.

Can you chip in now to save the orangutans?
