![Clouded leopards roared, orang utans got lost as they watched their wildlife corridors in Borneo being destroyed for a toll road construction to Nusantara the new capital city of Indonesia. Artificial ‘corridors’ will be built for them, as the construction [of the toll road] can’t be stopped. “But the government has pledged to protect wildlife and restore degraded ecosystems,” said a local community representative in despair.](https://image.24vids.com/tw-1674280572246704128/amplify_video_thumb/1674280515271282688/img/HkHvA5Ueq_QKGEVU.jpg)

IDNTimes reported a heartwarming story about a man in Lampung, Sumatra, who feeds hungry hornbills rice at his home. While it’s a lovely sight, it raises questions about the hornbills’ natural diet in the forest. Do wild lipid-rich fruits like Ficus spp. still thrive there?

An American influencer recently shared a video of Riau province in Sumatra on social media, claiming, “This is what deforestation looks like from above.” While his intention was good, the footage actually shows an area after the harvesting of a monoculture pulpwood plantation. I know this because I was Sustainability MD of a large pulp and paper company for almost 15 years. The barren land is not a result of natural forest clearing; it was likely deforested and converted into plantation land by the company more than six years ago. We need to stop deforestation and work towards restoring the damaged ecosystem.

Between 2019 and 2023, Ujung Kulon National Park saw 26 Javan rhinos killed. Data manipulation has also contributed to this crisis, and now, another rhino died after being translocated. Only less than 50 Javan rhinos remain. We need professionals to manage our national parks.

My God. Please listen to me instead: It’s important to remember that although scientists estimate the ocean produces at least 50% of the oxygen on Earth (from oceanic plankton — drifting plants, algae, and some bacteria), roughly the SAME AMOUNT IS CONSUMED BY MARINE LIFE. So unless you are a fish, don't rely too much on it. We need forests because they are crucial for air quality, regulate the climate by absorbing massive CO2, prevent erosion and landslide, support biodiversity, and provide oxygen that stays in the atmosphere longer because it's not consumed by marine decomposition, UNLIKE much of the ocean's oxygen.

“We must now be vigilant and cautious. We must protect our environment. We must not cut down trees indiscriminately. I am asking all local governments to be more vigilant and exercise greater oversight. We must protect our environment as best we can,” stated the President of Indonesia in Aceh today.
