Hi everyone, new member here.
A question that's been swirling around in my head for a while: how are we to understand/judge the sustainability of the oils we select for soaps?
Palm has gotten a lot of attention for a good reason, but I'm sure the farming of other oils is contributing to damage in rainforests, deserts, water supplies, people etc.
Palm products have the RSPO looking after and certifying sustainability. Does a similar organization exist for any other oils? Any thoughts ya'll might have on the sustainability of different oils would be greatly appreciated!
*Edit: Deserts, not desserts!
