Don’t let the forests go silent! Fight for the forgotten animals

Fight back against the corporate ecocide destroying the world’s rainforests. From the jungles of West Papua to the deep forests of Nigeria, the palm oil, meat and soy industries are rapidly clearing vital habitats. The RSPO tries to hide this destruction behind the greenwashing myth of “sustainable” palm oil, but time and time again this is proven as a massive lie. We must actively protect the rare insects, little known reptiles and mammals whose homes are being bulldozed for profit.

Use your wallet as a weapon to protect these forgotten animals. You can drive real change right now by adopting a vegan lifestyle, boycotting all palm oil products and calling out the brands funding deforestation. True conservation champions indigenous-led agroecology and stands directly with the land defenders who successfully safeguard these ecosystems. Make every day World Wildlife Day by joining the #Boycott4Wildlife movement. Demand corporate accountability, support indigenous sovereignty and take action for all life today.

These brands have products that contain palm oil sourced from mills that are responsible for the destruction of precious habitats of endangered species. Therefore, these brands are directly involved in the extinction of hundreds of endangered species.



Here are some palm oil free alternatives to buy instead.

Hi, I’m Palm Oil Detective’s Editor in Chief. Palm Oil Detectives is partly a consumer website about palm oil in products and partly an online community for writers, scientists, conservationists, artists and musicians to showcase their work and express their love for endangered species. I have a strong voice for creatures great and small threatened by deforestation. With our collective power we can shift the greed of the retail and industrial agriculture sectors and through strong campaigning we can stop them cutting down forests. Be bold! Be courageous! Join the #Boycott4Wildlife and stand up for the animals with your supermarket choices
