Helping the Orangutans

Don't want to preach, but YOU can help stop a catastrophe by simply signing and sending a pre written letter. It's as easy as going here:

Now some words from AOP:

"33,776 hectares of forest in Sumatra under threat
19/4/2009

Many of you may be aware of the current media coverage surrounding a proposal by timber giant, Asia Pulp & Paper, to clear 33,776 hectares of forest in Bukit Tigapuluh, Sumatra, Indonesia. This devastating proposal will severely endanger the 100 orangutans released in the park to date via the Bukit Tigapuluh Sumatran Orangutan Reintroduction Project – the only reintroduction site for this critically endangered species.

We are calling for immediate support on this issue. Please write letters to Asia Pulp & Paper executives requesting a withdrawal of its proposal - and encourage as many people as you can to do the same. To make it easy a letter template and the executives' contact details are available at http://www.orangutan.org.au/writetoapp

Your protest can make a difference!

Thank you for your help and support.

It makes you fat.
