The Problem With Palm Oil

Ever wonder what levels of destruction were wrecked on the environment, wildlife and indigenous populations so that you can eat some Cheez-Its? I appreciate the Rain Forest Action Network, as they really seem to understand how their interest in the environment is connected to something seemly unrelated, like exploitative labor practices or the protection of animals.

How you can help.

Palm oil is also really irritating to a lot of people with allergies/sensitive skin.Sadly it seems to be in everything these days (doods, personal care products). Kudos to the RFAN.
