In many places of the world, small pockets where the wilds remain, they are being burned down by locals paid to do so by people whom don't even live in the lands 'óut of site out of mind'....and the world is losing great forests which took a thousand years+ to establish...to be replaced with trees and crops which wreck the land and grow in just a year. The whole thing sux!
Palm oil is a bit like corn syrup - they shove it in everything as a filler, as a consumer avoiding these things is difficult, but very possible (the best way is to make your own food, sauces and drinks - so you don't even have to trust the label then).
Don't crap in your own backyard, pay others so you can crap in theirs instead! Out of sight and mind indeed. This is why in many ways we could do with localising.
