MONGABAY. WORLD RAINFOREST MOVEMENT. ORANGUTAN FOUNDATION INTERNATIONAL.
Some links of the following three organisations which relate to palm oil.
It should be said that there are certainly many other worthwhile organisations in regards to environmental issues however it was these three which for now came to mind. All the best.
MONGABAY. One very good online resource on all things environmental which I mention as their articles often appear on the palm oil thread is Mongabay. Thus it is only fair as a last repost on this home page that I make others aware of Mongabay's good work. Here is a link that leads to various articles on palm oil. All the best:

WORLD RAINFOREST MOVEMENT. Well, here is another online resource [amongst many] which has appealed to me in recent times and covers palm oil in its worthwhile critiques against monoculture. It may not be as well known so present here. This particular World Rainforest Movement webpage focuses on palm oil:

Also by way of WRM one also now knows that September 21st is the International Day of Struggle Against Monoculture Tree Plantations.
As WRM also says which is worth the reminder: plantations are not forests!
Orangutan Foundation International.
This is one of the very few orangutan rehabilitation groups that I am aware of that does not believe in so called sustainable palm oil. Dr Birute Mary Galdikas heads this organisation.
OFI. Palm Oil. (OFI. Australia).
Orangutan Foundation International. Palm Oil.
