Rainforest Action Network

Rainforest Action Network (RAN) is a prominent organization engaged in environmental research and activism. The organization has been at the forefront of identifying and addressing environmental issues related to deforestation, especially those linked to the dairy industry's supply chain.

Research and Findings

In a notable collaboration with Greenpeace, RAN's research uncovered connections between the use of palm kernel expeller feed and illegal deforestation activities. This feed is often used in the dairy industry, indirectly linking dairy production to environmental degradation in rainforest areas.

Significant Events

The partnership with Greenpeace and the subsequent findings have been significant in raising awareness about the environmental impact of certain agricultural practices. These revelations have spurred discussions and actions towards more sustainable practices within the industry.
