Target: DeforestACTION group
Region: GLOBAL
Background (Preamble):
EVERY HOUR an area the size of 300 football fields of the world's oldest and most valuable forest is lost, along with the animals it homes, many of them critically endangered. Entire ecosystems are being lost at dramatic rates.

The climate is irreversibly damaged by the carbon released through this practice. Much of this logging is illegal.

DeforestACTION is working with governments to put a STOP to this, but we need your support. Please add your name to our growing list of supporters. Stand up and be counted. By adding your name you are joining Taking It Global and DeforestACTION in their fight to stop illegal logging, re-forest areas of degraded land and rehabilitate the Orangutans rescued during this process. Please add your name and pass on to others who might be interested in signing up.
Petition:
We, the undersigned, support DeforestACTION in its efforts to work with governments to monitor and protect remaining forests, preserving the habitats of many endangered species, such as the Orangutan and Sun Bear.
