The article discusses the environmental and social impact of avocado production in the Mexican states of Michoacán and Jalisco, highlighting the deforestation and illegal land use changes associated with avocado orchards. Climate Rights International (CRI) has been actively campaigning against the importation of avocados from uncertified orchards that contribute to environmental damage. Max Shoening, a researcher and lawyer at CRI, has conducted a study revealing that many orchards have been deforested illegally, as there have been no permits for land use change in over two decades. The study implicates several U.S. companies, including Calavo Growers and Fresh Del Monte Produce, which supply avocados to major supermarket chains. The article also mentions a new bipartisan bill in the U.S. Congress aimed at prohibiting imports from illegally deforested lands. CRI is pushing for avocados to be included in this legislation. Additionally, the article touches on the economic impact of avocado exports from Mexico and the lack of action from APEAM, an association responsible for certifying avocado orchards in Mexico.
