Greenpeace says no to Neste's palm biodiesel

Filed under: Biodiesel

Greenpeace last week told the Finnish company Neste Oil to stop making biodiesel from Indonesian and Malaysian palm oil. Lennart Daléus, the general secretary of the Nordic section of Greenpeace, said that growing the palm trees is done in a way that, according to a short note on Newsroom Finland, "destroys rain forests, speeds up climate change and drives many species to the edge of extinction. And, over on Epoch Times, we find Greenpeace's slogan for this campaign: don't fill your tank with rainforest.
