Mildly Interesting

This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Palm oil is bad though. Besides that, I get what you mean

Ultra-processed palm oil is bad.

Palm oil is bad because rainforest is burned down to grow more monoculture palm oil. https://wwf.panda.org/discover/our_focus/food_practice/sustainable_production/palm_oil/

This basically describes all agricultural:

  1. Clear wild land
  2. Implement monoculture

This has been discussed before. Clearing out steppes and prairies is different from clearing out rainforest with its extreme biodiversity.
