Your Signature is Needed: Global factory farms DESTROYING ecosystems

URGENT ACTION NEEDED: Stop taxpayer dollars from supporting giant agribusiness corporations that fuel factory farms expansion! [Act now!]( The Brazilian Cerrado is the world’s largest tropical savanna, home to over 80 Indigenous groups and 5% of the world’s plants and animals. The Indigenous and traditional communities living here have sustained their livelihoods for generations through a relationship to the land and water based upon stewardship and balance. Yet, many communities report facing land grabbing, violence, and intimidation threats by local land owners who sell feed crops to these big companies for factory farms. Despite these egregious human rights abuses, the World Bank is using MILLIONS of our taxpayer dollars to help agribusiness corporations prop up this unsustainable and unjust model of agricultural production, allowing them to greenwash their destructive activities. [We need 87 more people from your city to stand up to greedy companies that are fueling the destruction of communities and critical ecosystems! Please, Friend, add your name by 11:59pm TONIGHT!]( [Sign the petition]( Not only do local communities face land grabbing, violence, and other threats -- pesticide-intensive feed crop production pollutes their rivers, depletes their soils, and endangers human health. What's more, factory farming and the destruction of ecosystems like the Cerrado are key drivers of the climate and biodiversity crises. The World Bank must end its support for corporations involved in furthering this destructive model of agriculture before more land is stolen and exploited! You can help PROTECT HUMAN RIGHTS and END TAXPAYER SUPPORT for giant agribusiness companies! [Friend, tell the World Bank to STOP funding this destructive industry before 11:59pm TONIGHT!]( [Sign the petition]( Standing with you, Ashley Schaeffer Yildiz Senior agriculture and climate finance campaigner, Friends of the Earth Contact Us: Friends of the Earth U.S. Washington, D.C. | Berkeley, CA 1-877-843-8687 [Contact us](foe.org/about-us/contact/) Email Preferences: [Click here to unsubscribe]( Learn more: www.foe.org/news www.foe.org/about-us www.foeaction.org Connect: [Facebook]( [Twitter]( [Flickr]( © 2021, Friends of the Earth.
