Companies need to make sure the palm oil in their products is legally sourced.

Companies need to make sure the palm oil in their products is legally sourced.

The Issue

Orangutan habitat is being illegally destroyed for palm oil plantations. Orangutans are said to be extinct in 20 years. An estimated 300 football fields of land is being cleared per hour for palm oil plantations. Companies often get palm oil for their products from illegal and non-sustainable plantations without them even knowing. Companies need to research where their palm oil is from and make sure it's from sustainable and environmentally friendly sources. Stop Illegal Deforestation, Save The Orangutan Nation!!!!
