While you are busy boycotting palm oil, I would suggest you also stop flying if you are concerned about species extinction (unless your flight to Borneo was absolutely essential). Sorry if this sounds sarcastic. I don't mean it that way. Just couldn't help but notice the irony in your post.
- crispyporkbites 6y agoI'm glad you wrote this - flying at scale is terrible for the environment. However it doesn't mean eating palm oil is ok. Whataboutism is even worse for the environment, there is always something you can do better and life has many facets. The danger of your comment is that people use this to justify not doing anything while continuing to fly and act irresponsibly, and pretend that they have some kind of moral high ground. Even a small change like one individual not eating palm oil can be the first step towards a sustainable planet.
