Monrovia, Amsterdam, Washington D.C. – The High Carbon Stock Approach (HCSA), an agribusiness industry sustainability body, has confirmed longstanding allegations that Golden Veroleum Liberia, the Liberian investee of palm oil giant Golden Agri-Resources, committed widespread deforestation over a thousand hectares of forest, including endangered species habitat and important wetlands. In a comprehensive report published this month, the company was also found to have violated the land and cultural rights of local communities, including the right to free prior and informed consent and social requirements on basic needs and grievance and remedy.

“And if it looks like we were scared to death/ Like a couple of kids just tryin’ to save each other/ You should’ve seen it in color.”
Jamey Johnson’s award-winning 2008 hit “In Color” - a song about looking back at old black and white photos from World War II and beyond - was actually first inspired by old shots shown at Nashville’s annual BMI Awards.
