Greenpeace accuses P&G over Indonesian forest destruction

CENTRAL KALIMANTAN, Indonesia: Environmental group Greenpeace on Wednesday accused United States consumer goods giant Procter & Gamble of responsibility for the destruction of Indonesian rainforests and the habitat of endangered orangutans and tigers.

In an extensive new report, Greenpeace said the company was using Indonesian palm oil from suppliers with links to the destruction of ancient rainforest, haze-inducing forest fires and an orangutan “graveyard.”
