SPOM
Sustainable Palm Oil Manifesto: As growers, traders and processors, non-governmental organisations, end-users and financial institutions, we are committed to ensuring sustainability in the entire chain from cultivation to consumption. In line with this commitment, we propose to enhance the RSPO Principles and Criteria (P&C) with three specific objectives:
i) To build traceable and transparent supply chains; ii) To accelerate the journey to no deforestation through the conservation of high carbon stock (HCS) forests and the protection of peat areas regardless of depth, and iii) To increase the focus on driving beneficial economic change and to ensure a positive social impact on people and communities.
