How does Indonesia's palm oil industry fuel the climate crisis? Palm Oil Detectives

Indonesia accounts for more than half of the global palm oil supply, the world’s most widely used vegetable oil that is found in everything from food to cosmetics to fuel. But environmentalists fear surging demand for the product may drive mass deforestation in Indonesia, home to the world’s third-largest tropical rainforest, and exacerbate the global climate crisis.

A spectacular "marine cemetery" fossil cluster featuring a large uncoiled ammonite surrounded by smaller ammonites from the Provence region of France. The central large shell trapped and caused the collection of numerous smaller ammonite shells around it over time. Photo By: Nanette Theillaud.
