Orangutans are being driven from their homes to make way for palm oil production.  Please make a gift today to help us protect animals and natural places.

Shocking news out of Indonesia: Greenpeace investigators, working with the Friends of National Parks Foundation, have found something sinister on a palm oil plantation: an orangutan graveyard.
While we don’t yet know how or why the orangutan remains came to be buried in the dirt on a palm oil plantation, we know that orangutans do not bury their dead: this was done by human hands.
You can make sure Greenpeace can continue to uncover, expose and fight against the impacts of environmental devastation, by making a donation today.
Deforestation has led to a 50% decline in the orangutan population of Borneo, where the buried orangutan remains were found. And we know that palm oil production is the single biggest cause of deforestation in Indonesia. Even worse, we’ve learned that an American company, Procter & Gamble, buys palm oil from suppliers who are linked to the very plantation where we found the orangutan remains.
This is why we’re part of a global movement demanding that Procter & Gamble commit to a No Deforestation Policy immediately in its products like Head & Shoulders shampoo. Already, over half a million people have joined with Greenpeace to bring this demand to P&G. But so far, P&G refuses to budge. 
We need to turn up the heat on P&G and other companies linked to the destruction of key habitat for orangutans and other animals. Help us make this possible by donating today. Your donation will also support our work to fight global warming, protect our oceans, and other campaigns to protect our environment.
Real change is already happening, thanks to the support of people like you. More and more companies — like Hershey, L’Oreal, and Unilever — are committing to deforestation-free practices. And just yesterday, we learned that Mars has committed to a No Deforestation policy. 
Indonesian rainforest habitats are disappearing so quickly, we have to act now. We won’t just sit and wait for holdouts like P&G to come around.  We must ensure that the palm oil industry changes quickly enough to save animals like the orangutan.
Please make a gift now to support our work to protect natural places around the globe. To have a healthy, diverse planet, we must end deforestation. This won’t be easy, but I know we can do it with you at our side.
For the forests,
Joao Talocchi Greenpeace Palm Oil Campaigner
