Compulsory labeling of palm oil
Target:
The Australian and New Zealand government
Sponsored by:
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!

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.

Compulsory labelling gives us the choice. Consumers have the right to know what is in food. Air New Zealand serve biscuits containing palm oil, it is in so many products, I spend ages sifting through labels to determine what is actually in the products I buy. This action is well overdue.

Palm oil should be banned! It is a unhealthy product, and it causes the cold blooded senseless murders of our beloved orangutans. People need to know about this product, and have the choice to avoid it.

Very deep Matthew... Although I agree, you didn't need to use such a vocabulary to sound smart, I know you are buddy :) People should have a choice whether to use products with palm oil or not...but how can they have choice when 'palm oil' isn't even labelled on products? Oh, and orangutuns are quite cute.

Transparancy is the only way a good democracy will work, allow the public to choose and to choose wisely so palm oil eventually becomes a dud product no longer worthy of profit.

palm oil should most definitely be labelled so we can, as a country, create stronger awareness of this monstrosity.

I believe that it is truly disgusting and disgraceful that the selfish demand for palm oil is destroying one of the most beautiful creatures in this world. I want the right to choose products which do not support the harm in orangutans.
