European officials are planning to delay implementation of a new climate law banning the import of goods linked to deforestation.

The law would require companies importing soy, beef, cocoa, coffee, palm oil, timber, rubber, and other products to prove their supply chains do not contribute to deforestation. The EU is the world's second -largest contributor to deforestation through its imports.
