Stop the use of Palm oil in Tesco own brand range

The Issue

Palm oil is found in more than half of all supermarket products. It is responsible for deforestation in Sumatra and Borneo, home of the Orangutan.

At present there is no guarantee Palm oil is not causing rainforest destruction which means endangered animals like the Orangutan, Asian Elephant, Sumatran Rhino and Tiger are all threatened with extinction.

Iceland will stop using Palm oil in their own brand products by the end of 2018 which is a good start. There are alternatives such as Sunflower and Rapeseed oil. I now call on Tesco to do the same and give consumers the choice of Palm oil or no Palm oil. 

Profit should never come before the preservation of our planet..

Please sign this petition and help us stop this destruction before it's too late.
