Orang Utans in Borneo are in danger
The cutting down of their native jungle to plant Palm Oil is seriously endangering these wonderful animals. YOU CAN HELP ! Firstly by making a donation to the Animal Orphanage in Borneo where they brilliantly look after orphaned baby Orang Utans... But maybe by NOT BUYING any Food or other item made with PALM OIL. An amazing number of foodstuffs contain palm oil and there are easy substitutes - but palm oil is a tiny bit cheaper. So Orang Utans must DIE to enable the unscrupulous planters to plant palm oil plants. The amount of jungle left for them is now TINY and definitely under threat. Write to YOUR LOCAL SUPERMARKET and the Food Manufacturers and tell them that you are boycotting palm oil products and ask what they intend to do about it. If you don't get a satisfactory answer then shop elsewhere.
Only by this kind of action will the Orang Utans be saved.
There are lots of pictures here - most of them taken at the Orang Utan Orphanage. We will also be putting up a range of things you can buy from Cafepress - all money received from this lens goes directly to the Orphanage and helps suport them.

Thanks for bringing attention to the plight of the Orang Utans. We all must change our behavior a little bit to save these truly wonderful creatures. I'll never purchase a product with palm oil again and I will check every product I put in my cart! Plus, I'll write companies that use it. Posted December 05, 2007 |
