URGENT ACTION NEEDED: People, helpless animals, our rainforests, and other essential ecosystems are suffering at the hands of factory farms. You can make a difference. Act now! Billions of taxpayer dollars are financing the expansion of factory farming around the world. Instead of promoting sustainable development, the World Bank is financing exploitative corporations that pollute communities, mistreat animals, and destroy the environment. Friend, demand the World Bank stop using taxpayer dollars to finance factory farms by 11:59pm TONIGHT! Biodiversity hotspots like the Amazon Rainforest and Cerrado Savanna in Brazil are being decimated to graze livestock and produce soy. Despite major grain shortages, 77% of global soy is used as animal feed, mainly for chicken and pigs suffering in factory farms. Greedy agribusiness corporations across the world also threaten and expel Indigenous communities from their land and displace small farmers. The World Bank's private sector arm, the IFC, has financed some of these destructive companies! Human rights abuses, rainforest destruction, and mistreated animals are just a few of the reasons the World Bank Group must stop bankrolling factory farming. YOU only have until NEXT WEEK to make your voice heard before the World Bank's annual meeting. We need 78 more people from your area to sign by 11:59pm TONIGHT: Stop the World Bank from propping up destructive factory farming! Standing with you,
Ashley Schaeffer Yildiz,
Senior divest factory farm campaigner,
