this memo provides analysis and recommendations regarding Unilever’s transition to sustainably sourced tea.

The earliest sustainability move I found on Tyson happened in 2002 when they created their Tyson Food Core Values dedicated to keeping integrity and honesty within the company and creating better communities (Core Values).

Deforestation Effects The rainforest is one of Earth's most valuable resources and at the destruction rate, people need to stop ignoring this problem. “Around the world, Tropical Rainforests are being destroyed at a rate of 80 to 90 acres each minute.”(Thompson, Heather) The rainforest is home of many living creatures and provide the world with many supplies such as, food, clean water, and housing, but soon the population of those living creatures will decrease and those supplies will be gone.

the 1980s and the explosion of international interest in the rainforest that followed created a period for Amazonian Indians of increased intercultural exchange and relationship building.

the Amazon rainforest as it is portrayed by a staggering amount of both past and present media outlets. This portrayal tends to be one consisting of a vibrantly colored rainforest, brimming with an abundance of diverse and exotic flora and fauna, and, a thriving and well-balanced collection of ecosystems which is, frankly, not even remotely accurate to the actual Amazon rainforest. Behind its deceptive facade endorsed by television, books, and occasionally even news, the Amazon rainforest occupies

55 square feet of rainforest is cleared. Rainforests used to cover 14% of the earth now they cover just 6% this is a huge amount of area we are destroying. This is because of the loggers and ranchers. The amazon rainforest is home to one third of the species in the world and 200 indigenous communities.

The rain forests are a display of the negative effects of humans on nature. One of the biggest destroyers of the rainforest is farming. Farmers in areas inhabited by the

     The destruction of the rainforest is a problem that the people of the world can not continue to ignore. 14 percent of the Earth's land used to be covered by rainforests yet this number has dropped significantly to only about 6 percent (http://www.ran.org/ran/info_center/index.html). Rainforests provide the people of the world with many necessities, some of which would no longer be available if rainforests did not exist. In the last 50 years, rainforests have declined at a terrifying
