Well in the 1990s McDonalds was linked to destruction of the rainforest in order to make pasture land for their cattle.

Pressure from environmentalists forced them to stop.

"In all cases, however, McDonald’s does not, has not and will not permit destruction of tropical rain forests for our beef supply. We do not, have not and will not purchase beef from rainforest or recently deforested rainforest land"

In fact, the McDonalds restaurants in the UK have now switched to 100% Rainforest Alliance Certified Coffee.
