How are most palm oil plantations in south and southeast asia created? a. by building terraces b. by planting palms within rainforests c. by clearcutting forests d. by reclaiming land from the sea

Most palm oil plantations in South and Southeast Asia are created C. by clearcutting forests. The clearcutting of forests for palm oil plantations is becoming a major global issue, since it forces native plants and animals to relocate, creating mass havoc in ecosystems worldwide.

I highly recommend watching the documentary Before The Flood with Leonardo DiCaprio. Super interesting and spends a good amount of time talking about palm oil plantations.

Happy studying!
