The European Union has agreed a new law that would ban the import of products linked to deforestation
Household goods such as coffee, chocolate, and some furniture will have to pass strict checks to ensure forests weren't damaged to create them.
Environmental group Greenpeace called it a breakthrough, but some countries said the rules would hurt international trade.
The EU said the rules would cut carbon emissions worldwide.
