Rapid Response Monitoring System
Mighty Earth’s Rapid Response program is stopping deforestation in its tracks. Each month, we combine satellite imagery with supply chain data to determine the global agribusinesses responsible for new cases of deforestation driven by the palm oil, soy, and cattle industries. Then we move quickly to hold those companies accountable and ensure they enforce their environmental policies before more damage is done.
Trader Tracker
Each month, we rank the palm oil traders and biofuel companies based on how they are responding to the cases of deforestation and peat development in our reports.
About the System
The Rapid Response monitoring system identifies and documents emerging and ongoing cases of companies engaged in deforestation linked to the palm oil, soy, and cattle supply chains. Click here to learn more.
