Student description: I drew this poster because lots of orangutans are losing their homes, and some are even losing their lives because people are cutting down their trees to make palm oil. Palm oil is used in a lot of our food and also in skincare too. What I'm suggesting is that we can try and stay clear of food and maybe skincare that has palm oil in it. Say NO to palm oil so the orangutans have a home.


Ava Blyde

Poster. Year 3 from St Andrews College.
