Orangutans
I’ve decided to donate 100% of all my profits on Orangutan images to a nominated Orangutan conservation effort (decided soon).
This is why:

Thumbs up, Natalie!!! Excellent!

Your blog post is distressing and moving – I also think I ‘know’ how bad it is for these creatures, but clearly I had no real idea … I don’t buy anything (knowingly) that contains palm oil, but how can I tell whether my small denial makes any difference at all?
Next year I am taking a trip to Borneo and visiting an orang rehab place, and I hope to be able to help, with money and by spreading the message when I return.
Your photos of orangs are inspirational Natalie, great work.

I think we’re all guilty of it Denzil….I just couldn’t believe what I was reading :(
Good luck with what you are doing, that will be an amazing trip.
Maybe all we can do is the little stuff and at least try.

Thank you Natalie. Obviously, I was aware of the plight of many of our beautiful primate cousins but I had no idea about the heinous role of palm oil

Bugger, Sorry! Seems my super-senitive touchpad mousey thingy decided to hit the enter button before I’d finished!
Anyway, I was saying… no idea about palm oil… I will definately be obsessively reading labels in supermarkets from here on in. Again, I thank you for the heads up.
