Our campaign to highlight and stop Fonterra’s import of palm based animal feed continues. Palm based animal feed comes at a huge cost to the climate, tropical rainforests and biodiversity as well as the local communities of Indonesia and Malaysia.
Greenpeace and the Indonesian Human Rights Committee are hosting a public seminar on “New Zealand, the palm industry and rainforest destruction.”
Come along to hear about the campaign to stop imports from the palm industry and to protect the old growth forests and people of Indonesia and West Papua. There’ll be time for questions and discussions at the end.
Simon Boxer: Greenpeace senior climate campaigner
Max Purnell: Independent farmer who accompanied Greenpeace to Indonesia to assess the impact of Fonterra’s palm kernel imports
Catherine Delahunty: Green Party MP, sponsor of the new bill to combat deforestation
Maire Leadbeater: Indonesia Human Rights Committee and ‘Don’t buy kwila campaign’
