Park rangers found yet another young orangutan hanging from a tree just outside a palm oil plantation, barely alive.
He had been shot 130 times. The team of vets that rushed in couldn’t save him, but you can help save what’s left of his species from extinction.
PepsiCo. McDonald’s. Unilever. And more. They all made a public promise to clean up their palm oil act by 2020 -- and they’re all hoping you won’t notice as that deadline whizzes by, rainforests keep burning, and orangutans keep dying.
It’s not too late to turn this around, but we need your help right now.
In just weeks, big industry execs are meeting in Thailand for the super exclusive, so-called "Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil."
It’s expensive to get in, but if you chip in a bit now, SumOfUs will get a seat at the table to hold greedy executives accountable for the blood on their hands -- and force them to drop dirty palm oil for good.
Will you chip in to save the last orangutans?
