Can you spot the orangutan?

​

  • Indonesia's tropical forests are being burned down to grow palm trees for palm oil. Palm oil is one of the key drivers of rainforest and tropical deforestation worldwide.

  • This destruction is harming Orangutans along with other wildlife. 50,000 orangutans died as a result of palm oil deforestation in the last 2 decades.

  • Palm oil is an ingredient found in half of all supermarket products. This includes most Halloween candies such as; Twix, Butterfinger, Almond Joy, Snickers, and Milky Way. There are many more products containing palm oil in stores such as in cosmetics, lotion, detergent, frozen pizza, margarine, etc.

​

What can you do?

  • Don't purchase products that contain palm oil.

  • Urge companies to stop using palm
    oil in their products.

  • Support these organizations:
