Still think that boycotting palm oil will reduce deforestation? Think again!

A new scientific paper finds that consumer boycotts of palm oil have not played a significant role in reducing deforestation in Indonesia, the world’s largest palm oil producer.

"Meijaard also hopes the program will change perceptions of wildlife species that are commonly viewed as pests, like orangutans. Now, instead of getting angry over an orangutan stealing food, observers can sit back, take a photo and make some money."

New study published:

"This study shows that the sustainability status of oil palm farming by independent farmers who hold ISPO and/or RSPO certificates in Jambi Province varies, ranging from moderately sustainable to highly sustainable.

We agree. Demand sustainable palm oil to save orangutans! 🦧

"When a company has a granular map linked to a carbon footprinting engine, they can run "what-if" scenarios: What if we shifted 20% of our palm oil to a certified sustainable supplier?"

Palm oil is in nearly everything we use. The issue isn't the crop — it's how it's grown.

Choosing sustainably produced palm oil protects forests, wildlife, and the communities that depend on it.

"Sustainable palm oil production must continue to prioritise responsible land use, environmental protection, biodiversity conservation, smallholder inclusion, traceability and transparency, and climate resilience and sustainable livelihoods."

~45% of Indonesia’s smallholder oil palm is over 25 years old & needs urgent replanting. Yet progress is slow despite a 60 million Rp/ha subsidy. Farmers delay for short-term stability, deterred by a 7–8 year income gap & barriers to accessing support.

Palm oil is the world's most consumed vegetable oil, and demand is only increasing. But did you know that palm oil can be produced in a way that benefits both people and nature?
Next time you're shopping, just look for products that have an RSPO CSPO...

[Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil @RSPOtweets]

Since the beginning, RSPO and Proforest have been working side by side supporting growers, working with supply chains and taking on deforestation in palm oil.

"Environmental concerns are real and urgent, but policies that restrict palm oil production without understanding these income effects risk hurting the rural poor who have benefited most from the expansion."
