new law to ban any products linked to deforestation
Half the Earth's forests are now gone.
15 BILLION trees are chopped down every year -- 476 every single second. That's our rainforests, jungles, and woodlands being decimated to make space for ever more cattle, palm oil, and soybeans.
But today we have a unique opportunity to change it.
Right now the EU is considering a new law to ban any products linked to deforestation. If the law passes, the EU is such a massive market that it could force the world's biggest companies to change, transforming the global supply chain, and helping to save our woodlands, wetlands, and mangroves.
Earth needs this law -- so let's make sure it passes!
This is not a usual petition. You'll be signing an official EU consultation. Every voice counts. Every signature builds the resolve of lawmakers to pass the most ambitious forest-protecting law possible. Let's be deafening. Click to add your voice and forward to everyone you can.
I support the forest-saving law
Deforestation was serious a decade ago -- now it's a planetary emergency. Forests provide our oxygen, they protect the climate, and are home to 80% of land-based life. And yet they're being totally destroyed.
But now we could finally have a law to save the trees!
This new bill could ban the sale of forest-killing products across the EU, cutting the huge profits made from the destruction of woodlands, rainforests, and trees that have stood for centuries, and setting a global precedent.
So let's win it! For the jungles, the jaguars, the orangutans, the gorillas, and millions of people who live in the world's forests -- and for every time you've ever looked up at a tree in wonder -- add your name to the official consultation now:
