how does chocolate affect the environment? 

# data[].attributes.body
Some of the environmental impacts caused by chocolate production include:

deforestation

particularly in West Africa, where 1/3 of the loss of forest in the past 60 years is due to overgrowing cacao cultivation. This can threaten the wildlife habitats and also reduce biodiversity

biodiversity

turning rainforests into cocoa plantations, demolishes biodiversity and disturbs ecosystems. Clearing the land for cocoa farming causes habitat destruction, negatively affecting a large variety of plant and animal species

greenhouse gas emissions

Producing 1kg of chocolate can result in about 3.8 kilograms of CO2 emissions

Water pollution and soil health

Farming cocoa usually utilises pesticides and chemical fertilisers that can lead to water pollution and degrade the soil
