The rain forest is being cut down at an alarming rate to make way for palm plantations. Habitat for Orangutans is diminishing daily. There are now only about 7300 Oranguans living now in sumatra. If we don't act now, rain forest will continue to be cut down and habitat for species like the Orangutan will all but disappear. Please sign.

The devastation of orangutan habitats continues while corporations prioritize cheap palm oil over our remaining rainforests. I am currently reaching out to international environmental policy groups to push for stricter trade regulations. Call your local representative today and demand they support a ban on unsustainable imports.
