It has been made by creative agency Mother (directed by award-winning Salon Alpin) and produced by Oscar-winning Passion Animation Studios.<\/p>\n<p>Celebrities taking to social media to share it include Stephen Fry, Bryan Adams, Jodie Kidd, Alesha Dixon, Andy Serkis, Geri Horner (n\u00e9e Halliwell), Gregg Wallace and Sharon Osbourne.<\/p>\n<p>The film tells the story of baby Rang-tan as she causes mischief in a little girl\u2019s bedroom. Just as the girl is about to banish her, she asks Rang-tan what brought her there. Rang-tan\u2019s memories are harrowing. They show her forest home destroyed, trees burning, huge machines hacking others to the ground and her mother lying injured.<\/p>\n<p>Palm oil is used in almost half the products we buy in UK supermarkets and demand is increasing at an alarming rate. Ending their part in deforestation for palm oil was a promise that Unilever, Nestle and Mondelez, along with many other brands made a decade ago, with 2020 their deadline. On International Orangutan Day they will have just 500 days to go and they are way off target [1]. The film marks the start of Greenpeace\u2019s campaign to ramp up pressure on brands to keep their promise and end destruction of the rainforests.<\/p>\n<p>Dame Emma Thompson, campaign ambassador, says:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen Greenpeace asked me to narrate Rang-tan, I didn\u2019t hesitate. For too long big brands have been getting away with murder. And for too long our response to orangutans has been \u2018ohhh, poor thing\u2019 as we\u2019re shown photographs of them orphaned and at death\u2019s door. But change is possible \u2013 we can make it so.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy making a noise, demanding answers and forcing change, we can stop feeling sorry. Instead, we can feel exhilarated as we witness these iconic beasts living truly wild once more. If we accomplish that, believe me, we will all be much better off.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Orangutans spend 95% of their lives in the trees, but right now, Indonesia\u2019s forests \u2013 the lungs of the planet \u2013 are disappearing at the rate of one football pitch every 25 seconds. Bornean orangutan numbers more than halved between 1999 and 2015 with the loss of approximately 150,000 individuals \u2013 that\u2019s more than 25 a day. If we don\u2019t act now to stop brands buying dirty palm oil, more habitats will be ruined, indigenous people will lose their homes and orangutans could be lost forever.<\/p>\n<p>A decade ago we pers\uaded brands including Nestl\u00e9, Unilever and Mondelez to sign global commitments to drop dirty palm oil from their products by 2020 \u2013 but with just 500 days to go, their progress is pitiful. Orangutans have been pushed to the very brink of extinction, Indigenous peoples\u2019 lives are threatened and climate change is accelerating.<\/p>\n<p>These forests are the lungs of the planet \u2013 it\u2019s no exaggeration to say that keeping them intact is vital for all life on earth and we hope Rang-tan will help bring this urgent message to millions more people. If we all act together, we can force brands to keep their promises and end deforestation for good.<\/p>\n<p>Excerpt from the film script:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a human in my forest and I don\u2019t know what to do<br \/>\nHe destroyed all of our trees for your food and your shampoo<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s a human in my forest and I don\u2019t know what to do<br \/>\nHe took away my mother and I\u2019m scared he\u2019ll take me too.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are humans in my forest and I don\u2019t know what to do<br \/>\nThey\u2019re burning it for palm oil\u2026 so I thought
