Aerial View of Oil Palm Plantations and Deforestation in Borneo

What can I say? I think that most people do not care enough about the natural world, and that is why destruction of this type is still going on today despite the fact that we are destroying critical habitat for wildlife and of course destroying ourselves in the process. These are the things I have been able to do to help the planet. My home sits on one acre pf pristine Florida native land. There is no mowing needed. I never use fertilizer, herbicide or any other chemicals.

For this Halloween, i'm not purchassing Candy bars, Chips... that have Palm oil in it. Maybe i should just confiscate a truck load and incinerated processed foods in public/news. We're at an all time low regarding the Eco terrorism. As regular consumers, we're saving a nickel or dime for every palm oil processed foods we purchase, big deal. It's only the few Top corporate sick owners that are raking in bigger profits when it's calculated by the Tons.

Please join a boycott on products containing palm oil. Some cookies, candies, cosmetics, commercial baked goods, and a wide variety of other products contribute to the extinction of orangutans in the wild. In as few as ten years, there will not be another orangutan left in the wild. They are critically endangerd. The word/name "orang u tan" comes from the Malay dialect and means "people of the forest." No more forest = no more oragutans. PLEASE boycott all palm oil products. Thank you.

seen from above, we really get a feel of the extent of the damage. Sad, sad, sad. Everybody can do its bit by avoiding palm oil and talking to friends about it.
