GREENPEACE / DEFORESTATION

Independent Films, Global Warming, Art, Animated

An animated short showing the link between deforestation and our shopping behavior.

Forests are being cut down to make room for palm oil plantations. Palm oil is found in 60% of products on our supermarket shelves & growing. Demand is predicted to more than double by 2030 and to triple by 2050. Deforestation is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions, threatens biological diversity, and has devastating impacts upon forest dependent peoples.
