2. Soya products from the rainforest that are not certified organic or from an unsustainable source
3. Chicken, pigs and cows that have been fed on soya grown in the rainforest (e.g. Kentucky Fried Chicken)!
4. Bio-diesel from the rainforest that has been produced on rainforest land and caused its clearance!
5. Furniture made from wood from the rainforest e.g. Mahogany
6. Beef produced in the rainforest!
7. Leather taken from cattle in the rainforest that has grassed on the rainforest land and caused its clearance!
