Great news from P&G brought to my attention from my lovely friend Teng Hong Wei! Excerpt; Procter & Gamble has bowed to pressure from environmentalists and revealed a new, extensive no-deforestation policy in the production of its products, including demanding fully traceable palm oil from suppliers. In the wake of severe criticism by a Greenpeace report earlier this year, the multinational company said on Wednesday that by the end of 2015 it would ensure that the palm oil and palm kernel oil it sources is traceable to the supplier mills. It also pledged to ensure no deforestation is involved anywhere along the supply chain by 2020.
