Dear David,
Hello, I am a student at Longnor School and I am in year 6. We have been doing some research on palm oil and we found that it is effecting our forests and wildlife. It is a major problem because it is causing deforestation; that means 1000 orangutans are dying each year because of the use of palm oil trees. On the other hand, palm oil has good uses like you get 10x more oil than sun flour, rapeseed and soya. This is why it has become so popular. It is found in lots of different products.
If you would not mind, could you make a book about palm oil and how damaging it can be to our nature and wildlife? The reason I want you to is because you have a massive audience and you are also very famous. I think you could influence children who read your books and maybe we could see a good change.
I hope you get this and I will be keeping an eye out for a reply.
Yours sincerely,
Ben Low
