Warning: May Contain Palm Oil

Dear lord, what kind of hypocritical propaganda is this?

Do other alternatives such as soy oil, corn oil, cocoa butter land-saving?

Re: burning - many species of plant in indigenous areas where plains are burned off, require a fire to germinate and create new growth. Those people survived, without clearing lands, and introducing species, and using additives... they did not ruin our earth.
Yes, I sit here in my powered home, with furnishings etc, I do however strive to one day make as little impact as possible, and I accept the damage I am doing each choice I make with heart that in time it will be different.

Also - there are many additives in foods which does not need to be there. Many of the 'foods' palm oil is in, is not real food after so much processing.
People will not stave, they will learn.

My lovely point is, hunks (which i am sure you are not) I think the video was a short but clear and well done snippet of what the maker believes, and so do I.
It seems though, that your job on this thread is make yourself feel better by belittling others and putting yourself on some kind of wobbly chair (not a throne - it 'will' fall).
You have your beliefs, which is fine, but you don't need to step all over people and abuse them to get a valid point across.
That is all. ;-)

yes let's freak about this instead of help all the indigenous who burn the land to try to survive on it.

I think the point here is, You're right, A tree can mature in a short time, but, having that 1 tree develop a diverse ecosystem around it, called a rain forest, will take MUCH longer. the rain forest includes the trees, undergrowth, birds, animals, insects and more - that is something that will only come together given time and being left alone.
