Palm oil plantations kill around 50 orangutans per week, and their reproduction rate is only 1 baby every 7 years! At the moment, palm oil can be labeled as 'vegetable oil' in products, but us, as the public would like to be able to make informative choices. And as well as killing orangutans, palm oil is also terrible for our health! For more info visit- www.palmoilaction.org.au

we would just like to be able to have the right to make informative choices when purchasing goods, as 'vegetable oil' could be one of many types of oils, most non-deadly. It isn't a very big ask, but it could make a very big impact on the survival of these beautiful orangutan's survival. Thank you for taking the time to read this letter.
We signed the "Compulsory labeling of palm oil" petition!

I believe it is important for palm oil to be labelled properly because then people have a choice to help save our environment or not. In the process of growing palm oil people need to destroy our forests which means there will eventually be nowhere for wildlife to live. People need to know what they are doing to the environment with buying palm oil. Orangutans are dying for us to be able to buy cheaper oil. Is it worth it? I think not!

LABEL PALM OIL!!
it is killing all the poor little orangutans who did nothing to deserve this ! !
it is cruel and mean to do this to them ! !
you should also have to advertise with a symbol of some kind if your product contains palm oil. it should be banned and illegal to use it in Australian made products. it is hurting our wildlife and us. there was a study done that showed that palm oil can effect the heart ! !
you should not use it and the people who do should be caught and stopped ! !

We need palm oil labelled on our food so we can choose not to buy these products so as we can help save the orangutans not to mention this oil is not good for us.
