- We hear a lot about the impacts of palm oil on forests and endangered species such as the orangutan. But did you know that solutions exist to produce palm oil that does not harm people or nature? Take 5 minutes to find out how the RSPO works and why WWF supports it as one strategy to help reduce deforestation and biodiversity loss in the tropics. Find out more on the WWF website: bit.ly/AjgPXD
Is that music from the sims in the background...?
yes it is!
Thanks helps with my homework
Palm oil is one of Malaysia and Indonesia's biggest export. The west wants us to be more environmental friendly? We adopted RSPO, MSPO, ISPO etc. Would like to hear if there are any certified sustainability standards practised by soybean farmers? I believe there are none. Hence, we are definitely more eco-friendly
Always trying to demonize palm oil, but I see many Western are fat, maybe that's why the cause of using inferior oil
Very informative, thanks!
This video telling us the real story, proving that WWF and RSPO only care about money is more informative ruclips.net/video/qO9EqtOc6Zg/видео.html
It is great to hear that WWF has taken steps to make Palm Oil more sustainable. As someone who is actively disregarding any item (usually only checked with groceries) that contain any sort of palm oil (kernel, modified etc) is there a way to tell which has undergone the RSPO certification?
4CoLeY4 I think only the products that have the logo they show in this video are approved.
Don't believe the lies. This is what's really happening, 15 years after the creation of RSPO ruclips.net/video/qO9EqtOc6Zg/видео.html
Why are you disregarding any items with Palm Oil? Are you also disregarding items containing sunflower or soybean oil? Did you know that sunflower and soybean farms could potentially be worst for the environment than oil palm plantations? Let me explain this:
1. First sunflower or soybean output per hectare is too small compared to oil palm - thus you need 10 times the land. So if you stop Oil Palm farmers from farming the crop and they switch to sunflower or soybean expect them to clear 10 times the land.
2. Oil Palm produces two different types of oils offering different characteristics and taste - no sunflower or soybean can do that.
3. Orangutans or wild animals would find oil palm plantations much habitable than an open sunflower or soybean farms.
4. Sunflower or soybean will need crop rotation to continue to be productive yet palm tree can stay there for 30 years without needing rotation. At the time of rotation will it mean people stop using edible oils, No. What will happen is more land will be acquired for that.
5. For Oil Palm the farm is cleared once but for soybean the farm is cleared every season/year meaning you have cases of land being bare every season (leading to evaporation of surface water 💧 and killing surface organisms by the sun) yet palm will protect the land underneath continuously keeping it wet. Remember when the sunflower is bare, our air is no longer being refreshed yet oil Palms will continuously refresh our air by taking carbon dioxide and releasing to us oxygen.
6. Oil Palm plantation will power other industries e.g cosmetics, pharmaceutical, construction, livestock feeding, paper production, ink production for print industry, biodiesel, etc. Even though sunflower and soybean can also produce livestock feed, but oil palm produce 10 times the quantity because there are more than 3 byproducts that can be used to create animal feed i.e. the leaves/fronds, the press fibber, and the palm kernel cake.
7. Oil Palm tree protect land from soil erosion which sunflower or soybean cant.
8. Because palm is a tree and it conserve land underneath just like a forest would it contributes to formation of rain - oil palm plantation is a forest.
9. Oil Palm can be intercropped with other crops like coffee, bananas, pensions, pineapples, cacao, etc thus improving further productivity of the land.
10. Oil Palm trees can survive draught better than sunflower or soybean coz they can preserve water for long periods.
11. Oil Palm will need less fertiliser than soybean and sunflower - the empty fruit bunches can be used to nourish the soil.
12. Due to sheer size of the tree the amout of carbons they take in and oxygen released is bigger compared to sunflower or soybean which have smaller lead surface.
I agree with Iceland (the store) which aims to avoid All items containing palm oil,; how can we be sure that all producers suppliers manufacturers etc are honest and stick to 'the Rules' on producing and using 'Sustainable Palm Oil'?
Look out for my company. I'm actually making a difference.
so what it you alternative suggestion.

Nobody care, Malaysian and Indonesia can supply India and China is big enough market, 2 largest population in the world. Westerner pls continue using your engine oil to cook food, OK!!!

We need to start by first changing the narrative. Remove the negative narrative about palm oil and then address the environmental concerns. At the moment Palm Oil has been branded too negative and as such the efforts to try make it sustainable might fell into deaf ears because of people have switched ot thinking you are all negative about it. So first let's brand it correctly - that this is a great gift of nature which God gave us and that through great farming management practices it can do the world great good. Then move to educate people on this great farming management practices to make sure its impact is all positive. Remember, if people abandon palm oil they will go to other sources of oils instead of abandoning edible oils altogether. And we all know that the other sources are not as efficient as palm oil. In fact, the lost of all palm oil byproducts will be huge because these byproduct could help drive other industries e.g. livestock, construction, briquettes production, paper production, printing, etc. The amount of livestock feed palm tree can product per hectare will take sunflower 20 times of hectares to produce.
blame the people for that, they think oil in general is bad not just for ingesting but also for using it on their skin saying it clogs their pores. These idiots would believe anything they read on the internet that causes their faces to break out lol

Why is the sims playing in the background?
If you listen carefully, you can hear the sims 4 ost in the background 😂
RSPO only protects primary forest (= forests that have never been impacted by human beings)... which is the same as saying they don't protect anything.
Lol i thought my sims game turned on.
3:49 what does it mean 'wildlife on plantations is protected'? Wildlife can't thrive on plantations, only in forests which are burnt to make room for plantations. It does not make much sense to me...
In the words of the saying it says no wildlife on the plantations is harmed!?!?!?
There are many birds living in plantations, mainly owls which prey on rodents, squirrels, etc.
Here is the funny thing, they sort of propose that only palm oil farming is responsible of clearing of forests. Now, ask yourself, if we stop palm oil altogether and farm the alternative edible oil crops like sunflower and soybean or rapeseed where will the land come from? We all know they all need more than 10 times of land to produce output similar to oil Palms. Why the attach on palm oil? I don't get it it! 😕
Failed to point out... that the RSPO's P&Cs hardly include any ACTUAL guidelines for implementations, and the members of the RSPO have several vested interests. And only 20% of PO is actually sustainable, even today. Haha.
Anyone else notice that the background music is from sims 4

what's up with the sims music in the background :DD
They didn't properly explain how palm oil can be sustainable so idk
sustainable can only be achieve if human stop the growth of their population. But among all the oil palm oil produce the most per square kilometres.
Because in reality is this is a political propaganda from Europe trying to stop palm oil because oil Palms don't grow in their climate. But in reality this is the most environmentally friendly edible oil plant the world has ever seen. For the same output other sources or edible oils need 10 times or more of land. Not only that, this is a tree and a typical plantation becomes a forest because the trees canopy cover the whole ground underneath. It helps in conserving land, reduce evaporation of surface water, help in the formation of rain, reduce green gas emissions and produce by products that power other industries such as printing (ink production), paper production, construction, livestock feeds, pharmaceutical, cosmetics, briquettes production, and more.
hello, Vis mooties :)
"MORE SUSTAINABLE" is not equal with "SUSTAINABLE". Am I right?
It means only, just a step forward to sustainable, but It is not sustainable. ;) PR is just a playground of words.... Good PR job, But what about sustainable? Not the customers decided to use palmoil in product, Comapnies decided it for more profit. So make all the process to clear, without corruption and with sustainable, OK? I also pay taxes, and take responsible to the state and laws, so make Companies process also clear and responsible over the law and enviroments as We have to do. Thank you very much!
The customer is the one supporting it tho. By buying the product with palm oil in it. There are alternatives. I'm not saying I'm perfect and that I don't buy any products with palm oil in them. But it's a good start to look at the ingredients and try to buy alternatives without palmoil.
Yes the government has a lot of power, and yes they will probably not change anything, because dun dun dun the consumer so me and you are buying these products supporting this unsustainable system which causes them to not want to change it cause they're making a lot of money
@@kolumbus1754 customers are stupid honestly they would believe anything they read on the internet lol
elephant at here moved from forest go to the palm oil forest😹😹😹. they all loved palm tree eat palm leaf and won't moved around 1-2 weeks until all tree being bald.
football*
They are acting as if they are saved the forest but they didn’t add how much they deforested. I went to Borneo and there were endless palm plantations. No matter how ‘sustainable ‘ it is, it is still not good. I admit this is hypocritical and that no system is perfect as even if palm oil was eliminated, another crop would replace it.
and that is why you are stupid
Palm oil production is the most efficient one compared to sunflower and etc. So many years but 20% adopted. Asking other country not to deforestation why not do something practical like paying Brazil the money to maintain forest at the expense of their country development. Stupid RSPO

NO PALM OIL AT ALL .........FRESH IS BEST, EASY REALLY
Indonesia and Malaysia have about 300 million people. About a million workforce involved in palm oil industries. You want palm oil to be ditched all together?
Fine. And please welcome about a million workforce at your countries border.
@Kevin W
Exactly mate!
Without sustainable industry and reliable jobs, we will burn those forest and hunts those animal immediately, everyday 24/7 just for a living. No need for electricity, we have plenty of firewood to keep our hut warm. No need to sow those crops nor raise those livestocks. We'll eat anything with edible meat, that wandering around the jungle.
It sounds like a very natural and eco friendly way of life, isnt it?
But you know what?
Since this palm oil campaign started. Brazil burn more and more Amazon forest for .... Dunno! Maybe Soy bean and rapeseed plantation i guess. Because both are the most common alternatives for palm oil.
By the way, Congratulations mate! Your campaign is mission success! Double success! Slowly killing palm oil industries, replace it with less efficient alternatives somewhere else, that might worsen the problems in the first place.
what is your alternative. Vegetable oil like soy, corn, canola etc are very bad for health.

Statistically, there has to be at least one inspector taking bribes to look another way. Humanity is flawed when money is involved. Therefore, I choose to drop palm oil use and find other products that do not use it. It's too risky for our planet and the other inhabitants other than ourselves. To say I have little trust in your group says a lot. This is also 100% infographics, and ZERO footage of 'on the ground' reporting that shows us what you're doing instead of flying everyone everywhere to meet and chat. :(
Dont eat, dont build a house, dont use a clothes, dont buy anything that produced by manufacture if you want stop deforestation.
Dont talking about deforestation if you still using other vegetable oil, buy a car, house, cellular phone and etc, these things are more deforestation then palm oil. Hypocrite.
Dhenis asmara suryadarma I hate this mentality so much. We obviously can’t just stop using things like phones. We can make changes to the smaller things and buy things more ethically and when society changes so will the ethical production of phones, cars etc. It’s not being a hypocrite, it’s making changes in the ways we can.
@@millie7642 nope, this all is about money. Human become hypocrite when something that give advantages to them. Why do you think western countries want to ban palm oil? Because they can not produce it. Do you think soybean, canola, rapeseed, sunflower etc planted on the land in the western countries are come falling from the sky? These industries destroy the forest. Other vegetable oil using land 4-10 times bigger then palm tree to produce the same quantity of oil. But why western countries does not ban these vegetable oil? Because these vegetable oil industries give western countries a profit advantage while palm oil doesn't. I will ask you which vegetable oil is environment friendly? So if you want to protect environment, start by not using the product from industries with the most worst for environment such as mining or if you talk about vegetable oil, start with other vegetable oil, and palm oil on the last because palm oil the most efficient to produce oil from using land.
i like ur commnt...nice... i want to copy to other hypocritor...haha
@@millie7642 I disagree with you on this one. Reason being that Dhenis is challenging the WWF idea of sustainability which suggests that only of palm oil is produced sustainably our environmental issues will be sorted. What he is suggesting is that these standards or care of environement so to speak should be applied to all human activities thatead to deforestation instead of only targeting oil palm.
