Do the positive impacts for farmers and consumers outweigh the negative impacts on the rainforest environment? Earth Science - Earth's Resources - Learning Points. Palm oil biofuel is cheap, renewable and produces low emissions. Over 90% of palm oil is produced in Indonesia and Malaysia. Rainforests are being destroyed to produce palm oil, which impacts on local ecosystems. The use of biofuels is set to rise in the future. A Twig Context Film.
