A new report covered by Mongabay says a major chocolate company lobbied officials in the United States and the European Union on deforestation legislation, most likely the EU's deforestation regulation, which restricts imports of commodities linked to forest loss. The claim has drawn attention from environmental commentators, who see it as the latest example of food industry pressure against anti-deforestation rules.
