I stopped using palm oil years ago after I saw what they were doing to the existing jungle to make room for palm-oil plantations.

slightly off topic: I disagree a lot with "environmentalists" about the causes, effects and hyperbolic predictions of cataclysmic destruction of the Earth and all its inhabitants by global warming/climate change. I can however see a really fucked up situation like the one highlighted in this article., and be completely appalled at the destruction of an ancient, beautiful jungle and all the repercussions associated with its demise.

Thank you so much for shedding some light on this disaster and hopefully changing some people's minds about the costs vs. benefits of using palm oil. Hopefully it's not too late to fix some of this.
