Which is why BFC are members of the RSPO (Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil)

Our policy is to purchase feedstocks, comprising soya, palm and rapeseed oil,
from high quality counterparties. The overall supply base for vegetable oil
feedstocks is growing and, as we move towards full production levels, we are now extending our arrangements with these suppliers in line with our strategy.
We take sustainability issues very seriously and are determined to ensure that
proper and enforceable sustainability frameworks are put in place and complied
with. Biofuels has taken a lead in the campaign to ensure this is achieved and
we are actively involved in discussions with government organisations and NGOs
about the right framework and with producers to ensure that they are aware of,
and can meet, our requirements.
We intend in future to issue a "Biofuels Sustainability Report" to update all
stakeholders on progress in this area.
