EU: BAN FOREST-KILLING PRODUCTS

Writer's picture: neighboursfortheplanetneighboursfortheplanet

Half the Earth's forests are now gone.


15 BILLION trees are chopped down every year -- 476 every single second. That's our rainforests, jungles, and woodlands being decimated to make space for ever more cattle, palm oil, and soybeans.

But today we have a unique opportunity to change it.


Right now the EU is considering a new law to ban any products linked to deforestation. If the law passes, the EU is such a massive market that it could force the world's biggest companies to change, transforming the global supply chain, and helping to save our woodlands, wetlands, and mangroves.
