We’re so excited to see what happens around the world on May 20! We’ve been working hard with thousands of you across the globe to ensure that the Global Day of Action to Cut Conflict Palm Oil is a smashing success, but we need your help to make sure PepsiCo gets the message loud and clear!

3. Call Pepsi on May 20: (+1)(914) 253-2000
You can pick up the phone and tell PepsiCo to cut Conflict Palm Oil during or after your action on May 20. Here is a guide to what you can say.
“Hi, my name is [your name] from [your city]. I’m a [student, mom..] taking part in the Global Day of Action and I’m one of your valued customers. It concerns me that your company cannot guarantee that it is not using Conflict Palm Oil in its products. PepsiCo must demand responsible palm oil from its suppliers and eliminate Conflict Palm Oil from its products. I encourage PepsiCo to secure a new global responsible palm oil procurement policy and implementation plan that ensures that the palm oil it uses is fully traceable, legally grown, and sourced from verified responsible palm oil producers not associated with deforestation, expansion onto carbon-rich peatlands or human and labor rights violations. Thank You!
