More information:

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 win it now and help save the world's forests! Add your voice before the consultation closes, and tell everyone you can.
