Setting up their easels in public places, caricature artists draw pictures of people who are willing to pay a modest price for a humorous image of themselves. We find these drawings amusing as they usually exaggerate one or more of our physical features in a way that is recognizable but funny.

There’s a scene in the Star Wars trilogy that reminds me of the situation facing the palm oil industry. At an establishment somewhere in a remote corner of the galaxy, grotesque-looking creatures socialize over food and music. When Luke Skywalker enters with his two droids, C3PO and R2D2 (who are more “normal” than anyone else there), he is surprisingly turned away with a curt rebuff: “We don’t serve their kind here!”
That strange scene captures the malady that we all struggle with, in our relationships here on planet Earth, racism. It is difficult to belief that racism can rear its ugly head over a third world commodity, but unfortunately that appears to be the case.

In many ways, “green” and “civil society” groups have for so long now lived off the crises that they create vis a vis palm oil and so they regularly trundle out wild and unsubstantiated claims against palm oil. However, these kinds of covert operations against palm oil are well documented.
