Two teenagers have launched a battle against Kellogg’s after finding out the company is a 'key offender' in the palm oil industry.
Asha and Jia are determined to fast-track this process and have urged big brands to urgently address ‘empty promises.’
Jia added: ‘When we discovered the damage that Kellogg’s is doing to the environment we were really shocked as we were eating Kellogg’s everyday, not realising the impact it was having on the rainforest and it’s inhabitants. Jia said: ‘Since they updated their palm oil policy in 2020, it does not feel like much progress has been made, however Kellogg’s say it’s partially due to the pandemic.‘We are meeting them later this month, so we can see what progress has been made and emphasise that someone needs to make a change to move this industry on from its destructive path.’
‘When one big business makes a change, the rest will follow and this is what we desperately need Kellogg’s to do, they need to be at the forefront. David said: ‘We are immensely proud of their impact at such a young age, to encourage a large global brand to change its approach to using palm oil.
