Item type:Publication, Sustainable palm oil certification inadvertently affects production efficiency in Malaysia(Springer Nature (United Kingdom), 2025-03-12); ; ; George, GerardSustainability certifications have rapidly gained prominence and become standards across many industries, yet knowledge about the potential unintended consequences of their criteria remains limited. Here, we use European Space Agency multispectral imagery satellite data in combination with economic and location data to investigate whether the certification process for palm oil production results in unintended consequences. Our results indicate decreases in plantation efficiency both prior to and following the certification obtainment. Our findings highlight the importance of considering possible unintended consequences of sustainability certifications beyond their immediate goals and criteria.Type:journal articleJournal:Communications Earth & EnvironmentVolume:6Issue:200Scopus© Citations 5
