KFC killing the rainforest and all of its beautiful inhabitants

(This is a letter I received from Green Peace)

Taleb-

Rainforest destruction?  Not what you expected?  Unfortunately its true.  Our researchers have found that KFC's throw-away packaging contains fiber from Indonesia's rainforest.

Thats right.  KFC is destroying the habitat of the last remaining Sumatran tigers for potato wedges and 12 piece buckets of extra crispy chicken.  Its disgusting.

KFC gets paper for its packaging from a notoriously destructive company called Asia Pulp & Paper (APP).  And APP is driving rainforest destruction in Indonesia at an alarming rate to meet KFC's demands -- leaving endangered Sumatran tigers with nowhere to go.

(They act like they want to make a difference, don't be fooled www.asiapulppaper.com)

Don't let fast food packaging be the end of the Sumatran tiger and everything else that calls the Indonesian rainforest home.  Help us send 50,000 messages to KFC in the next 72 hours by taking action right NOW.

TELL KFC TO STOP USING RAINFOREST DESTRUCTION BEFORE ITS TOO LATE.

Green Peace activists are delivering the very same message at KFC's headquarters in Kentucky right now.  Its all part of the next phase in our campaign to protect the Sumatran tiger and save the Indonesian rainforest.

Together, we've already convinced some of the worlds largest companies- Nestle, Mattel, Kroger- to cut ties with APP.  NOT ITS TIME TO KEEP THE MOMENTUM GOING AND DO THE SAME WITH KFC.

It wasn't that long ago that the Sumatran tiger thrived in Indonesia.  Today there are only a few hundred left in the wild.  What will this look like a week from now?  A month? A year?  The answer to that question is up to us.

Companies like Asia Pulp & Paper are showing no signs of letting up.  Even with all our success, at the current rate of destruction, the forecast for these tigers and the rainforest itself isn't looking good.

Its not too late, but KFC has to stop buying packaging from Asia Pulp & Paper.  It won't be easy and the company is going to do it if we generate enough public outcry.  Thats why its so important that you take action today.

Help us expose the truth behind KFC's real recipe and tell it to stop serving up fast food in forest destruction.  Send your email today.

For the forests,

My Thoughts...

Like are you fucking kidding me.  You're telling me that they are destroying habitats just over some fuckin paper!!! The blame can now longer be pinned on KFC though, they may have been ignorant to the fact, however, with a conscious efforts to make people more aware of whats going on, its out responsibility to make a difference, and if you don't, you are just as ignorant.  Not one person can do it alone, and a corporation is not going to do it unless the people push them to do so.  Understand what this means, understand the butterfly effect.

If these species and habitat gets destroyed who knows what kind of impact it will have on the rest of nature, and even our own lives.  Seriously understand this is OUR future and we are in control of it.  Seriously people, from the bottom of my HEART, please just take two minutes to sign this petition and it WILL make a difference, PLEASE.  Together we can make a difference for a brighter tomorrow, but we can no longer be ignorant or else life as we know it will be over.  Here is the link where you can directly sign the petition electronically and help to make this dream a reality.
TAKE ACTION

With Love, and One Love,
