This has been confirmed in China, the UK and Indonesia. Products found to contain rainforest fibre include cups, food boxes, French fries holders, napkins and the famous chicken buckets.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Greenpeace research has tracked a number of these products back to <strong>Asia Pulp &amp; Paper (APP)<\/strong>, a company that continues to rely on rainforest clearance in Indonesia. By purchasing paper from APP and by using paper made from rainforests, KFC and its parent company Yum! Brand Inc. are <strong>driving the destruction of forests<\/strong> in countries like Indonesia. These forests are a key defence against climate change and are habitat for many protected species, including the critically endangered Sumatran tiger.<\/p>\n<p>Unlike a number of other major international companies, KFC and Yum! have <strong>no sustainability policies<\/strong> to exclude commodities connected to rainforest destruction. In fact, the group has <strong>consistently failed to even answer questions about its sourcing of products <\/strong>such as palm oil, soya and paper products.<\/p>\n<p>Greenpeace is calling on KFC, and its parent Yum!, to immediately implement policies to <strong>exclude deforestation<\/strong> from their supply chains and to <strong>suspend the use of any products from APP<\/strong> while it continues to clear Indonesia\u2019s natural forests.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/planet4-usa-stateless\/2024\/12\/745070af-kfc-junkingthejungle.pdf\">Read the report.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Greenpeace research has tracked a number of these products back to Asia Pulp &amp; Paper (APP), a company that continues to rely on rainforest clearance in Indonesia.
