Deforestation
Every minute, 12 football fields of forest are cut down or burned 🪓🔥 Almost all of it is rainforest. The good news is that it's less than 10-20 years ago! The rate of deforestation has slowed down but it’s obviously still a huge problem. Our World in Data has a fantastic article on this topic: three-quarters of all deforestation is driven by agriculture. And there is one product that sticks out: beef. The second biggest cause of deforestation is soy and palm oil. Soy: 77% of all soy is used as animal feed, most of it for pigs and chickens. So actually, a large part of this deforestation is also related to meat. Palm oil: This is a complicated one. It’s almost impossible to avoid palm oil and replacing it with other oils would cause even more deforestation (check out our blog for more about this topic). What I find the most useful tip: eat less ultra-processed foods because that's where palm oil is used. ----- 🙋‍♂️ I share facts about climate change and food. Follow me and join my exploration for a sustainable version of 'The Good Life‘. 📱 If you want to see more infographics about sustainable food, download the free Fork Ranger app in the Google Play or App Store. 🏔 I'm currently on vacation so it might take a bit longer than usual to respond to comments and messages. ---- Source: Pendrill, F., Persson, U.
