Palm oil is an ingredient in many "butter substitutes" - in fact all that I looked at in the grocery store. Smart Balance and all of its equivalents have palm oil in them. Be sure to check for ingredients before you buy anything. Evidently palm oil tastes a lot like butter. Sometimes it is called palm fruit and you have to look for the industry attempts to disguise it.
It is crucial that the Palm Oil industry be exposed for what it does to the environment and the Orangutans habitat...they will be extinct inside 20 years if nothing is done! We share 97% of our DNA with these magnificent creatures,something MUST be done!
You should definatley tour a small coffee shop circuit. I think you could get some more follorwers that way. I would target fair trade coffee shops and offer to preform free concerts for them.
Nice work! Beautiful "faces in the forest." Orangutans are so intelligent and gentle, and tour message is important. The sad part of this palm oil issue is that many small farmers have been mislead about the profits and sustainability of the crops once the thin top soil erodes.
Unique way to tell the world about the destruction of forests.
Thank you for this good song.

It's a shame that they are a little group of people listen to this.
