Palm Oil
Manage episode 239066946 series 2527928
Sponsored by All Heart NZ – helping corporates to redirect, repurpose and reduce their waste while supporting communities throughout Aotearoa and globally.
Palm Oil: It's got hundreds of uses and names, and is in half of all packaged goods in supermarkets. It's also partially responsible for the recent extinction of half of all vertebrate on Earth. Scary stuff. Waveney and Tim chat about the pitfalls of monoculture farming and deforestation, palm oil alternatives (and their risks) and five tips to beat the problems of palm oil!
The show's palm oil facts came from Wikipedia, the World Wildlife Foundation, Auckland Zoo and Consumer.org (consumer institute). We also mention the palm oil ingredient finder: 300 names for palm oil; NZ's Unmask palm oil Facebook page; and palm oil v coconut oil (the comments on this page highlight some of the issues).
