Orangutans and palm oil
#6
It seems so difficult to get away from Palm oil in one form or another. I just googled "natural shampoo, shower gel. soap" Even some of the ones which came up had what appeared to be dubious ingredients. Yet there are many plants which contain what are called natural "saponins" (soap-like substances) And some of those plants grow as common weeds. Surely (I think) someone with some knowledge of chemistry can make alternative ingredients from these plants....(?) And surely (I think) -if done on a large scale, costs could be kept at a minimum. Why do we have to use palm oil derivatives? And at such a tragic cost for these poor animals!

And why would people be happy to factory-farm animals....yet can't get their heads around factory-farming weeds??
