Boycott palm oil!
This picture captures the last tragic minutes of the adult ape’s life – after a frenzied mob beat her, pelted her with rocks then tried to drown her in a swimming pool.
Her crime?
She was caught scavenging for fruit to feed her malnourished daughter on the outskirts of a ramshackle village in Borneo.

IMPORTANT ACTION – just 2 weeks to do your bit.
2 weeks left to make a difference – be sure YOU do.
Please crosspost the link and get all your family and friends to support:
What use is sustainable-certified palm oil if it’s tied to deforestation, fires, and forced labor?
That’s what NGOs have long been asking the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO). Despite being the industry’s biggest certification system, RSPO and its member growers, brands, and banks have ongoing links to deforestation and labor and human rights violations.
But this our chance to change all that. RSPO has launched a public consultation from members, workers, and consumers alike on potential changes for its certification system. We need to join our voices together and call on members to vote for a credible certification system at next year’s RSPO General Assembly. It’s time to put the planet and the people before profits.
The clock is ticking, we only have two weeks to speak up.
For too long, RSPO has failed to rein in the worst practices of the palm oil industry: deforestation, the burning of carbon-rich peatland, forced labor, and child labor on palm oil plantations. All while providing a veneer of sustainability that lull brands and consumers into a false sense of security and ethics.
RSPO monitors can’t wait until NGOs call out conflict palm oil in its members’ supply chains. It’s up to the RSPO to take on proactive monitoring practices to ensure that its members are living up to its sustainability standards.
We’re calling for a very simple certification: zero tolerance for forced labor and child labor, and a ban on worst environmental practices like peat development and land burning.
This is the change we’ve been waiting for, and RSPO adoption of these simple principles could be the last nail in the coffin for conflict palm oil. Will you help us push RSPO members to make the right choice?
Thanks for all that you do, Fatah, Mark, and the team at SumOfUs

Links to some of our past SAV posts on the issue of Palm Oil:



Riau Province, Sumatra, Indonesia — Workers harvest palm fruit from plantations in Riau Province, Sumatra. Plantations can be owned by large, multinational companies, cooperatives of farmers with growing palm, or individual farmers with small holdings.


Petition – Justice for Walle:
A family’s golden retriever named Walle was reportedly shot dead by a neighbour because Walle wandered into his yard.
So far no criminal charges have been brought.

Justice for BB Bear:
When BB Bear was brought in to animal control in Phoenix, Arizona, the tiny husky puppy had been beaten so badly he was unconscious and in a comatose state. He was bleeding from the head, suffering from a fractured skull.
“This was caused by blunt force trauma to the skull,” said Dr. Hugh Giffords of the Phoenix Dog Cat Bird Hospital. “Could have been baseball bat, tire iron, could have been a kick.”
But it was not an accident.

FBI agents get vets to cut off part of a piglets ear as ’evidence’.
Read the following article to see how the government / industry system is protecting the meat producers.
You will be amazed at what is done to stop undercover investigations by animal activists.
There are many graphic photos of the investigation.
This is the reality of how bacon and pork chops are produced for meat eaters.

Over the past 2 or 3 weeks we have been busy in our spare time making some new bee chamber logs to install into our ‘Bee Hotel’ at Jeslyns Country Park which is run by the Forestry Commission of England.



Above and below – some wooden bees have been cut,
painted and added to the logs this time.


In the workshop -newly drilled logs ready to go out to the hotel.
You can see a photo when we originally made the hotel about 5 years ago.

Above – after completion of the first hotel 5 years ago
Below – Denise after a new roof fitted but waiting for new logs

The log chambers have been in constant use and so it has been decided to replace them and give the bees new facilities in which to lay their eggs. We did some a few months back and they (the new ones) have proven to be very popular. The solitary bees which use them are some of the best pollinators of fruit trees. The bee hotel has been located very near to the Jeskyns orchards where an amazing 756 different varieties of apples are grown. So we rely on the bees to help pollinate all the fruit trees in the orchards, which they are happy to do
It’s a simple but very important cycle. We prepare all the logs with their many sized chambers and place them into the hotel. The bees go into the log chambers and lay an egg. They also leave a little bit of pollen for the hatchling to feed on when it first emerges within the chamber. After it has laid the egg; the adult bee seals up the egg chamber with mud to keep the egg safe. When the hatchling has emerged (hatched) and eaten in the chamber; it breaks through the mud wall and flies off – hopefully in the direction of the orchards
You can look at any of the logs (see photo below) and you can see where many of the chamber holes have been sealed up with mud by the adults. You can also see the chambers which are still empty and ready for other visiting bees to lay their eggs in. The aim is really to get as many of the chambers sealed up with mud as possible; as this indicates that we have a good and constant supply of new young bees in the area.
You can see one of the newest logs in use here on the left and many of the chambers which have been sealed with mud.

Above – an new log on the left side and some of
the chambers sealed up with mud. Older logs now showing their age but still also in use !
When all the different apples have been picked in the orchard they are put into crates and taken to the Jeskys café; where users of the park call in for a cup of tea and a bite to eat after they have taken their dog(s) for a great walk. There are a lot of apples and so they are provided for folk to try and take away. All that is normally asked is a voluntary donation which is put directly back into park upkeep and wildlife conservation.



So this kind of completes the circle – us and the bees working together for the benefit of each – and loads of beautiful fruit as a result of the work
Here above you can see some of the apples on display for visitors to take home when they visit the park.

Below – Ah bless – our little Pixie (Denise) takes a toadstall cos she has been working hard !

Below- there are lots of wooden Fairy Houses in the park for youngsters to leave gifts for their fairy friends.




Below – fairy gifts left by the children:

Finally – Many a true word!

Video Link:
When rescued, this emaciated bear could barely walk – look at him now – watch the YouTube video by clicking on the second link (directly) above.
Life on a bear bile farm caused moon bear Wolfie’s muscles to waste away due to lack of use, but loving care is helping him learn how to be a bear again.
Standing upright and swaying his head from side to side in a classic sign of distress, rescuers could clearly see the bones of Wolfie’s massive frame poking through his sagging skin.
Thankfully, Wolfie and eight other bears were rescued in June from a bear bile farm in southern Vietnam and taken to Animals Asia’s sanctuary to begin their recovery from a lifetime of abuse.
Click on the first link above to read the full story.
