Every minute, 23 football fields of forest are lost. Almost all of it is rainforest and the main cause is consumption of meat: beef as you can see in the infographic. And a large part of that 'soy and palm oil' block is also for meat because pretty much all deforestation soy is used as animal feed.

It’s all about finding a new way of living that is in harmony with nature.
