  • A scalloped hammerhead shark ( Sphyrne lewini ) is thrown overboard from a Taiwanese longliner, Sing Man Yi,  No 6, in the Pacific ocean, 23th August 2015.  The Rainbow Warrior travels to Pacific to expose out of control tuna fisheries. Tuna fishing has been linked to shark finning, overfishing and human rights abuses. Photo: Paul Hilton / Greenpeace Over 100 million sharks are killed each year for the fin trade. Hong Kong, Singapore and China are the biggest consumers of shark fin globally. Indonesia is the biggest exported of shark fins annually. Photo: Paul Hilton for Earth Tree Images

  • Shark fins found in the freezer of the Shuen De Ching No.888. In total there were sacks containing 75 kilograms of shark fins from at least 42 sharks. Under Taiwanese law and Pacific fishing rules, shark fins may not exceed 5% of the weight of the shark catch, and with only three shark carcasses reported in the log book, the vessel was in clear violation of both.

  • A community worker offloads plam oil saplings onto ilegally cleared land in the Tripa area, Aceh, Sumatra. According to Dr Ian Singelton of Sumatran Orangutan Conservation Program, the Tripa peat forest is home to the highest population density of Orangutan found anywhere on earth, but predicted to be locally extinct if current levels of forest clearing and conversion to plan oil plantation is not stopped immediately.

Photo: Paul Hilton The two largest oil palm-producing countries are Indonesia and Malaysia and are located in Southeast Asia, a region with numerous endemic, forest-dwelling species. Oil palm producers have asserted that forests are not being cleared to grow oil palm. Our analysis of land-cover data compiled by the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization suggests that during the period 1990–2005, 55%–59% of oil palm expansion in Malaysia, and at least 56% of that in Indonesia occurred at the expense of forests. Over Borneo and Sumatra as a whole, illegal logging has led to huge declines in orangutans and other wildlife. Where forests are converted to plantations of oil palm or other crops, the consequences are even more serious, with many orangutans starving.<br />
<br />
The Sumatran orangutan is classified as Critically Endangered by IUCN. Since 1900, the number of Sumatran orangutans is thought to have fallen by about 91%, with a rapidly accelerating loss towards the end of the 20th century. Photo: Paul Hilton / Earth Tree Images
