Trase is the go-to source for intelligence on commodity-driven deforestation, creating accountability and empowering campaigns for change.

Advances in supply chain transparency pioneered by Trase enabled EU policymakers to gain a deeper understanding of the bloc’s supply chain impacts in specific biomes at risk, so they can design more effective responses.

Trase data and analysis was central to a report by the WWF European Office which revealed that the EU was one of the largest importers of agricultural commodities linked to tropical deforestation. The report supported calls to make EU imports deforestation-free, leading to the EU deforestation regulation.

"Trase can highlight close connections between imports of commodities such as soy, beef and palm oil, and the risk of deforestation in tropical biomes and conversion of other ecosystems, which in turn can promote targeted EU action to reduce its impact on biodiversity and greenhouse gas emissions."
