Tell Calvin Klein, Coach, Marc Jacobs, and Versace to Stop Bagging Indonesia's Rainforests

Indonesia's rainforests are world-renowned for their social and ecological value. They comprise some of the most biodiverse forests on the planet - providing habitat for endangered orangutans, Sumatran tigers, Sumatran elephants, and countless other species - and are also home to millions of Indigenous people whose cultures and livelihoods are directly dependent on natural forests. They are also ground zero for climate change linked to deforestation. These global treasures are currently being cut down at an unprecedented rate, making Indonesia the world's third largest greenhouse gas emitter, after China and the U.S., due to massive emissions from tropical deforestation and peat land drainage and destruction.

The pulp and paper industry is one of the primary drivers of deforestation in Indonesia, and global fashion companies like Calvin Klein, Coach, Marc Jacobs, and Versace are helping drive the loss of Indonesia's rainforests. Our research indicates that these companies are buying their shopping bags from Asia Pulp & Paper (APP) and its affiliates like PAK 2000. APP is the biggest Indonesian rainforest destroyer for paper and is responsible for past and ongoing clearing and converting of vast areas of rainforests and peat lands in Sumatra and Borneo.

Send a message today to Calvin Klein, Coach, Marc Jacobs, and Versace to demand that they that stop bagging Indonesia's rainforests by cutting ties with APP and its affiliates like PAK 2000 immediately.
