No Palm Oil In Our Tanks - Stop Subsidising Palm Oil Biodiesel!

Palm oil deforestation is getting worse, ravaging some of the planet’s remaining rainforests and our most precious wildlife.

But most people don’t know that 51% of all the palm oil imported into Europe goes into our cars. The EU subsidises it as a “green biodiesel”. Even though it’s actually three times worse for the climate than regular diesel because of the deforestation it causes.

On 1st February 2019 the European Commission can stop this madness. The EU Parliament had voted to stop promoting palm oil in biodiesel as a ‘green fuel’, but now it’s up to the European Commission to make it happen.

Tell the European Commission: No palm oil in my tank!

The EU has been under the thumb of biofuels lobbyists for years, subsidising the vegetable oil in biodiesel. It has disguised this destructive industry as an ‘eco’ option to replace fossil fuels, deceiving European drivers into burning, essentially, rainforests in their tank.

Millions of acres of rainforest have been destroyed -- replaced by huge palm oil plantations because of EU’s thirst for this vegetable oil.

Deprived of their natural habitat, orangutans starve. When they feed off palm fruits on plantations, they’re shot.

Burning up billions of litres of palm oil in vehicle tanks is escalating this crisis. And if we continue, soon orangutans, among the smartest and closest relatives of ours, will be extinct. And with them a vast array of species calling the rainforests of Indonesia and Malaysia home.

We can protect the orangutans, the rainforest, and its communities from palm oil destruction -- but we have to act now.

Tell the European Commission: No palm oil in my tank!
