Nestle, Walmart and KFC alleged social responsibility

This year Nestle, Walmart and KFC have suffered social media crisis due to accusations from the company Greenpeace. Greenpeace a company devoted to stop climate change and to preserve the world natural forests and animals seemed to have no problem in accusing Nestle for using palm oil obtained in Asian forest. Greenpeace launched a video that showed Nestle workers in an office about to eat a "Kit Kat".  The candy turned into a bloody gorilla finger as the employee bit down.  Walmart and KFC were also used of purchasing Paper products extracted illegally from the forests where Sumatran tiger and orangutan, [Both endangered species] live.  Nestle responded that the company itself does not purchase palm products from the Sinar Mas but admits that other companies they purchase from may have.  Nestle need to take a bigger step to make sure that they do not use these products that are being illegally taken from these forrest to save the earth and its animals
