Sorry it’s been so long since I’ve made a challenge, I honestly haven’t been able to think of a new one! I was just wondering if any of you might have a suggestion for a challenge. Feel free to suggest as many challenge ideas as you wish! Thanks!!

Hey everyone! I have a question about palm oil! Is there a substitute that companies can use in replacement for palm oil? If so, why don’t they? Is palm oil the cheaper option for companies?
Yes, palm oil is cheaper than other oils. Some companies use sustainable palm oil that supposedly isn’t grown in a place where rainforests were cut down, but often the “sustainable” palm oil actually has some sustainable palm oil and some palm oil that isn’t sustainable. RSPO is one label that is the partly sustainable palm oil. CSPO is a more…[Read more]
Thank you so much,Olivia! This was very helpful 🙂
Of course!!
A similar oil would be coconut oil. However, palm oil is actually a pretty worthwhile and high-yield plant. That means it can produce a lot without needing much care, space or nutrient-rich soil. Unfortunately, it is what happens before these trees are planted (the deforestation) and what happens on the plantations (wildlife being killed/illegally…[Read more]

Palm Oil Problems 2nd challenge! :
Cook/bake/make a homemade treat to replace store bought foods that have palm oil!

Palm Oil Problems Try to buy products without palm oil next time you go shopping! Here is a list of just some of the things that contain palm oil: 1. Ritz crackers…[Read more]
Maybe we can write about palm oil and how we can help stop the cutting down the rain forest.
That is a really good idea! So just to make sure I’m completely understanding do you mean writing it for our own sake, just like to research and then write it down, or did you mean to show or send to someone else to inform them about the problem? Thank you so much!! If anyone has anymore suggestions I can use them for other challenges
I was thinking that you could pick either one
Okay, thank you so much! I will make the challenge this weekend
Great ♥️
