Research by Global Canopy also finds many companies are not monitoring set commitments

A third of the companies most linked to the destruction of tropical rainforests have not set a single policy on deforestation, a report reveals.

Many of those who have set policies are not monitoring them correctly, meaning deforestation to produce their commodities could still be taking place. Of the 100 companies with a deforestation commitment for every commodity to which they are exposed, only 50% are monitoring their suppliers or sourcing regions in line with their deforestation commitments for every commodity.
