Parents: Campaign

NEWSFLASH!

Thanks to campaigns like ours and the Sumatran Orangutan Society the law has been changed in the EU and vegetable oil will be labelled clearly as the specific plant it comes from.

This shows the power of the individual to petition their elected representatives!

So although there is no campaign at this moment we would like to thank our MEPs for listening to our wishes.

Dear Members of the European Parliament,


Re: Clear labelling of vegetable oil.

Thank you for listening to the views of those you represent about the labelling of vegetable oil, significantly palm oil in products in the EU. The commitment of the European Parliament to enforce the labelling of the origin of oils to allow consumers to make ethical choices about what products they buy.

This has been the first step to conserving many species in rainforests in South America, South East Asia and Africa. Species like the Roloway monkey may be saved from extinction.

Thank you again
