Are we eating away the rainforest?
Video presented by Chris Lyal
When we reach into the cupboard for a snack do we stop to think what affect that packet of crisps or chocolate bar is having on the environment? Does food production impact on the environment and what can we do about it? Join us as we explore the issues surrounding the production of cash crops such as soya and palm oil, and the effect it is having on the rainforest.
