Palm Oil Monocultures Will Never be Sustainable

November 02, 2009

Open Letter to RSPO and WWF

One year ago, the “International Declaration Against the ‘Greenwashing’ of Palm Oil by the Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil” was published, signed by over 250 organisations worldwide (http://www.regenwald.org/international/englisch/news.php?id=1070).
