URGENT ACTION NEEDED: BlackRock is still financing some of the worst corporate deforestation and land grabbing imaginable! Take action now.
While you’re reading this email, greedy corporations are recklessly SLASHING AWAY at the last of our world’s great rainforests -- threatening wildlife and harming Indigenous communities in the process.
Indigenous Peoples are being violently expelled from their ancestral land with AGGRESSIVE FORCE. Majestic forests are being felled to make way for palm oil plantations. Orangutans and other terrified animals are watching in terror as their tropical habitats come crumbling down. And it’s all for the sake of corporate profits.
Friend, will you remain silent and let corporate bullies commit irreparable crimes against our rainforests and the living beings who call these precious treescapes home? Or will you speak up right now to STOP the rampant violation of our planet before we lose the very last of our world’s great rainforests forever?
In addition to protecting invaluable culture and biodiversity, rainforests serve a VITAL role in our ecosystem and the fight against climate change -- storing massive amounts of carbon that would otherwise end up in our atmosphere.
Tropical deforestation is responsible for about 10% of global warming emissions worldwide, and agribusiness is the world’s leading cause of deforestation, including the violent land conflicts that come with it.
That’s why stopping major financiers like BlackRock from investing money in companies driving deforestation and human rights abuses is a CRITICAL step to ending this vicious trend. But without demonstrating momentum from environmentalists like you, Friend, our efforts won’t make a strong enough impact. Please don’t ignore this urgent opportunity to join this important fight. Add your name NOW to preserve our rainforests and protect our planet from corporate destruction >>
Thanks for being a part of the fight,
Friends of the Earth
