Illegal deforestation is ravaging the planet and driving emissions up. A new bill in Congress seeks to change that. By Cara Korte Complicit: The Amazon Fires
The U.S. relies heavily on imported agriculture commodities. Nearly half of all the processed items Americans buy in grocery stores contain palm oil from around the world. America is the leading importer of raw rubber and tires, made from rubber trees harvested in southwest Asia. The U.S. is also the leading importer of cocoa, often from Ghana and Côte d Ivoire. These products all come from tropical forests.
However, these goods come at a steep cost to the environment.

Democratic Senator Brian Schatz of Hawaii is planning to introduce a bill to change that.
