A,
The pressure is mounting and Nestlé is showing its real face to the world.
Nestlé refuses to cut ties with REPSA, a palm oil producer found guilty of ecocide in Guatemala. REPSA destroyed an entire community two years ago and has since silenced critics and failed to compensate those most impacted by the spill.
By continuing its commercial relationship to REPSA, Nestlé is complicit and needs to hear from all of us today. Can you share our campaign with your friends? The more of us there are, the bigger our impact!

Dear Friends,
Nestlé is showing its real face to the world.
Nestlé refuses to cut ties with REPSA, a palm oil producer found guilty of ecocide in Guatemala. REPSA destroyed an entire community two years ago and has since silenced critics and failed to compensate those most impacted by the spill.
By continuing its commercial relationship to REPSA, Nestlé is complicit.
We already have 110,000 SumOfUs members around the world who are standing up to REPSA and Nestle and demanding the agro-business giant land on the right side of history. We know we can make that number explode—and we have to, because that's the only way Nestle is ever going to act.
Will you raise your voice and tell Nestle to cut business ties with REPSA until it repairs victims of its 2015 palm oil disaster in Guatemala and adopts a sustainable palm oil policy?
