Cargill

Santa’s been watching, and knows that Cargill has been bad to our ice caps this year!

Minneapolis is home to Cargill Incorporated, the largest importer of Palm Oil into the US. The Rainforest Action Network is calling on Cargill to adopt a Global Forest Policy that respects rainforests, family farmers, and our global climate.

Cargill, Palm Oil and the Climate of Deforestation

Minnesota-based Cargill Incorporated is the largest importer of Palm Oil to the US.  They also promote slashing and burning Indonesia's rainforests to make way for palm oil plantations, displacing indigenous people, and making Indonesia the world's third largest emittor of greenhouse gases. We invite you to learn about the Rainforest Action Network's campaign for Cargill to adopt a Global Forest Policy that respects rainforests, family farmers, and our global climate.
