Cargill promised to end deforestation in Brazil, Uruguay, and Argentina by
2025. So far, it looks like it hasn’t done anything and will miss the
deadline.

Tell Cargill to put an end to deforestation and human rights abuses before
it’s too late.

John,

Child labour on cocoa plantations, land-grabbing from Indigenous
communities, and a destructive railway through the Amazon are all the
result of Cargill’s greedy $47 billion business of destruction and
exploitation.

In the shadows, the Cargill-MacMillan family is making a killing from the
destruction and exploitation plaguing the company's supply chain. Last
year, we exposed the family and forced Cargill to commit to ending the
destruction of forests and other ecosystems in Brazil, Uruguay, and
Argentina by 2025.

But while 2024 is almost over and our planet is suffering, Cargill has
nothing to show for it. Cargill needs to urgently put its money where its
mouth is and clean up its supply chain.

[ [link removed] ]Sign the petition: tell the Cargill-MacMillan family to keep its
promise and clean up its supply chain.

Deforestation to make way for Cargill’s soy crops is also contributing to
the climate catastrophe. There’s less trees to absorb carbon emissions.
More extreme fires and floods fueled by the climate crisis that are
forcing hundreds of thousands of Brazilians this year alone to flee their
homes.

The Cargill-MacMillan family is one of the wealthiest and most powerful
families in the world with more individual billionaires than any other
family on Earth. It’s time for the family to take responsibility for what
their corporation is doing.

If enough of us sign the petition we can take it right to the
Cargill-MacMillan family and they won’t be able to ignore this. Let’s dial
up the pressure now and call on them to fulfil and expand its commitment
to stop deforestation and stop human rights abuses throughout its supply
chain.

[ [link removed] ]Tell the Cargill-MacMillan family: keep your promise.

When we come together we can make corporations change. Ekō, together with
partners, has already forced big companies like Kelloggs and Mars to clean
up palm oil supply chains. Let’s do it again.
