FINALLY, EU ACTION ON DEFORESTATION

The European Parliament reached an agreement with European Union (EU) governments on a new deforestation-free products law that affects, among others, coffee, cocoa or palm oil, and will oblige companies to verify and issue a so-called “due diligence” statement that goods placed on the market have not led to deforestation and forest degradation anywhere in the world. According to the agreed text, although no country or commodity will be banned as such, companies will not be able to sell their products in the EU without such a declaration, in addition to having to verify compliance with relevant legislation in the country of production, including that relating to human rights and respect for affected indigenous peoples.
