Buy products from green label (and stop buying for those that do not carry green label - as they have high chance of burning their land to clear their plantation).

This will be more cost effective than lawsuit. Their business will be hurt and they will stop burning and apply for green label.

Consumers is the best way to hurt their pockets and stop their mal-practice.

International efforts - to stop buying from companies without green label - will have an immediate impact for these unethical companies to stop burning and apply for green label - to continue their business - else they will fold up.

Squeezing the demand side of these companies' products will deprive them of sales. Thus buy only from those firms that refrain from burning - will force these companies to stop burning and get green label in order for them to continue to operate.

Next squeeze them of the supply sides - ie. their finances to fund their operation by not lending them money - and this will force them to stop burning because they will not be able to borrow from banks to fund their operation without a green label.

    @ricky - karma or whatever ma you may have, why wait for it to turn ripe ? They should come right now, or should have come some more than 10 years ago. Why let those indo pigs and corrupted indo govt officials enjoy with their ill gotten money now. Karma, if real, should come immediately and not wait for another 50 years to come, by the time, how many millions of people would have suffered .

    All human beings and sentinent beings - live because of our karma - including you and med.

    We are born, we live, our well-beings, our death, our future are the result of our karma - good or bad or neutral.

    The fuel of our karma - is the result of our thoughts, our speeches, our actions.

    We do good, we reap good karma, we live a better lives.
    We do bad, we reap bad karma, we live a miserable lives.

    Karma is not linear. It is compounded by all lot of conditions. Only when the condition ripen will the karma of our thoughts, speeches, actions manifest.

    Karma sometimes come immediately, sometimes come later in this life, but sometimes come only in future lives.

    The more good things we do, we tend to live a better lives.
    The more bad things we do, we will live a more miserable lives..
