Orangutans

Endangered Orangutans
Orangutans live in natural forests that are in Sumatra, Borneo, Malaysia and Indonesia. 100 years ago there used to be around 315,000 Orangutans, today there are about only 6,600 left. Why? Its because of palm oil. Palm oil is an edible vegetable oil that grows on trees in the rainforest.

Lipstick, shampoo, cookies, diesel and chocolates have palm oil in them. People like you can help by not buying those products and tell the company to stop using palm oil.
