URGENT: Act before July 5 to FINALLY ban illegal timber in the UK and Europe

“It is very important that people in other countries help us to preserve our forests by not usingillegal wood. I would like voters in Europe to support this ban on importing illegal wood as itwill serve our children – they will inherit the results.”Albert

Every day, Progressio sees the horrendous impact of this illegal trade on poor communities in the developing world. We must act to stop it.

And one last time we need to send a clear message to our politicians that they must take this issue seriously and pass this legislation. Please add your voice:

"People must be more aware of the impact of illegal logging. If we keep sawing down the trees, this area will end up a desert" says David Amador (pictured above). This is our chance to stop illegal timber in the UK and EU. Please help us to take it.

Thanks very much
