conclusion

Chocolates are highly consumed in every part of the world. Chocolate production have some negative impacts on environment. Water ,soil and weather are the major concern in chocolate industry. Usage of biogas, biofertilizers, good transporting system, less packaging can help mitigate the hazards to some proportions
