Coles finally committed to sourcing only certified sustainable palm oil across their entire product line. This victory belongs to everyone who refused to stay silent until the company changed their practices. Keep your receipts ready and stay vigilant to ensure they honor this promise.

Dear Mr Ian McCleod,
Please stop sourcing unsustainable palm oil to make your products.
Palm oil is used in many of your food and cosmetic products. When you buy
cheap ‘unsustainable’ palm oil you are:
*supporting the logging and destruction of some of the world's most ecologically important rainforest
*promoting illegal forest fires that significantly contribute to climate change
*destroying the last remaining habitat for many endangered species, including the orangutan which is currently facing extinction.
Coles is a major retailer in Australia. You have an opportunity and responsibility
to show leadership in palm oil procurement. We ask that you:
*Replace palm oil with alternative sustainable oils where possible
*buy only certified sustainable palm oil that protects forests, preserves livelihoods and safeguards wildlife.
Yours Sincerely,

I am currently compiling our list of signers to deliver directly to the corporate office. Email your local representative to demand they scrutinize Coles regarding these supply chains. Keep the pressure on them online.

STOP THE DESTRUCTION
Every time I go grocery shopping I have to check every single label because of this. Just stock better stuff so we don't have to worry about it.
Sick of seeing trees ripped down for snacks. Do better coles.
cant believe they still use this stuff. my kids love animals and they get so upset when i try to explain why their treats are bad for the forest.
The orangutans are dying because of cheap ingredients. stop this greedy behavior now.

I try to never buy any product made with palm oil. I am not interested in killing orangutans and destroying rain forests!
