A real-life Lorax
Palm oil hasn't made headline news as a quiet killer. Though it's high in saturated fat, there remains a lot of controversy as to whether it's good for you—or not. One thing we do know for sure is that palm oil is having a disastrous impact on the environment and on an array of wild animals. This is because to get that precious oil, massive swaths of planet Earth are being damaged. The situation is like a real-life The Lorax, where forests are being destroyed to keep "biggering and biggering" a profitable industry.
