Stop the use of palm oil in the new £20 note
Palm oil is a product which is linked to deforestation and the destruction of key habitats, including rainforests. This is leading to the dispacement and loss of life for indigenous people and wildlife, such as orangutans. The change from using tallow to palm oil is not an acceptable alternative.
For further information please visit websites such as https://www.rainforest-rescue.org/topics/palm-oil#start to get more information about this problem.
