This is a prize-winning documentary ('Jungleburger') made by the German
film-maker Peter Heller and widely broadcast since 1983. By interviewing and
filming key personnel involved in all links of the chain, it adds up to an
expose of how Central and South American tropical forests are being
destroyed to be replaced by cattle production for export to the USA and
other industrialised countries. McDonald's tried to supress the showing of
the documentary in the UK and abroad but it continues to be shown and has
been used as evidence in the McLibel trial. The documentary establishes the
connection between McDonald's and rainforest depletion. Regardless of this
McDonald's were able to extract an apology from Channel Four (UK).
