Descripción
Sumario:Since the European Union has been subsidizing the cultivation of crops for biofuel production, millions of people in Indonesia have seen their livelihoods diminished and are suffering from severe food shortages. Din Perulak, a member of the Orang Rimba tribe, is one of many indiginous people whose life has changed completely due to the EU̕s policies. Since 2003, Brussels has been ordering oil companies to mix plant oils into diesel fuel. The result in Indonesia is that ancient rain forests are having to make way for palm oil plantations to satisfy the new demand from Europe and elsewhere.
