Hundreds of companies, like Nestlé, Procter & Gamble and Unilever, pledged to stop deforestation by 2020. They broke their promise. The deadline is here. But companies continue to recklessly buy palm oil, soya and meat from suppliers that are destroying forests across the globe.
As the world’s super-elite gather at the World Economic Forum, let’s send a message that companies CEOs can’t ignore. To fight this crisis we cannot afford to lose more forests.
Call out companies over Twitter using the event’s hashtag #wef20. The world will be watching, as we demand companies be held to account.
