DEFORESTATION FOR PALM OIL PLANTATIONS LEADS TO THE EXTINCTION OF THE ORANGUTAN AND ALL FOREST CITIZENS SUCH AS ALSO TIGERS ETC.

KNOWLEDGE – IS YOUR WEAPON – AVOID ALL BRANDS THAT USE * PALM OIL
“Did you know that each and everyone of us is fueling one of the world’s biggest ecological disasters and acts of primate genocide in history?”
Your choice….!
Please make the right one ;p

“By purchasing products that contain crude palm oil, you are helping destroy ancient, pristine rainforest, wipe out species like the orangutan, and create a large-scale ecological disaster.

Think of the consequences next time you do your weekly shopping; the consequences not only for orangutans and other animals, but for us as the human race; for we cannot survive without the rainforests either. We have a choice, orangutans do not.”

Orangutan means ‘Person of the jungle’ in the Indonesian language
These self-aware, red apes are some of our closest relatives, sharing 97% of our DNA. There is only a 1 chromosome difference between us and them

“TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE KARMA OF YOUR CONSUMERISM !
BOYCOTT ALL PALM OIL PRODUCTS.
EXTINCTION IS FOREVER.
THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS ”SUSTAINABLE PALM OIL”
THAT ‘S A LIE THE POWERS THAT BE WANT YOU TO BUY.
DEFORESTATION GLOBALLY MUST BE STOPPED IMMEDIATELY.
IF YOU EXPECT TO KEEP BREATHING OXYGEN.”

EXTINCTION IS FOREVER !

Target: Indonesian government offices responsible for enforcing the laws protecting orangutans

The illegal trade in orangutans in Indonesia continues to be an activity that is decimating the remaining populations of the species.  While it is frequently a byproduct of logging and clear cutting for plantations, the illicit trade requires the killing of the mother orangutan to obtain the infant ape. It is estimated that for every orangutan orphan that is sold at the marketplace on Java, Bali or a foreign land, six to eight orangutans die in the process.  This horrific trade must stop if we are to insure the survival of wild orangutans.

The unthinkable is being done to female orangutans in Indonesia. They are being captured and used in brothels as prostitutes, where they are tied down and repeatedly raped on a daily basis.
Just when you think things couldn’t get much worse for the endangered orangutan, it does. 50,000 orangutans have already died in the last 2 decades as a result of deforestation- their natural habitat being replaced by palm oil plantations. They could be extinct by 2015.

According to Britain’s Daily Mail, palm oil plantation managers have been shooting and killing orangutans to protect their crops. Other orangutans are killed when managers burn and destroy their forest habitats to clear land for plantations. 300 orangutans have been slaughtered over the past eight years due to palm oil industry expansion. [ JUST IN BORNEO]
Though killing orangutans in this manner is illegal in Malaysia, the managers’ actions typically go unpunished. Orangutan numbers are depleting rapidly as a result of the slaughter. Please sign the petition to urge Malaysian authorities to enforce steep penalties for slaughtering orangutans and to remove the licenses of plantation companies that have killed orangutans.
