  • Palm oil processing plants thought to be sourcing illegal palm oil grown within the protected Leuser Ecosystem, Sumatra, Indonesia.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

  • A view of the of the Bairaman river and surrounding forest East New Britain province, Papua New Guinea. PNG‘s forests are the third largest, and some of the most diverse, on Earth. They support many cultures - over 12% of the world’s existing languages are spoken there - and a rich diversity of plant and animal  species. A recent report revealed that more than 1,000 new species have been discovered on the island of New Guinea and scientists say this is just scratching the surface of what is yet to be discovered.<br />
<br />
Devastatingly, this rich diversity of life is being lost at an alarming rate. Over 60% of PNG’s intact forests have already been destroyed by logging and industrial agriculture and the loss continues today.<br />
<br />
The World Bank estimates 70% of logging in PNG is illegal and the United Nations has questioned PNG on the recent rollout of over 5 million hectares of agricultural leases. These leases - known as Special  Agriculture and Business Leases (SABLs) - cover about 20% of the country’s forests. Representing one of the worst contemporary cases of cultural land grabs, they will decimate PNG’s remaining forests and  biodiversity unless they are overturned. Photo: Paul Hilton / Greenpeace

Each coral is a colony consisting of many individual sea anemone-like polyps that are all interconnected. Photo: Paul Hilton for Greenpeace

  • A view of the of the Bairaman river and surrounding forest East New Britain province, Papua New Guinea. PNG‘s forests are the third largest, and some of the most diverse, on Earth. They support many cultures - over 12% of the world’s existing languages are spoken there - and a rich diversity of plant and animal species. A recent report revealed that more than 1,000 new species have been discovered on the island of New Guinea and scientists say this is just scratching the surface of what is yet to be discovered.<br />
<br />
Devastatingly, this rich diversity of life is being lost at an alarming rate. Over 60% of PNG’s intact forests have already been destroyed by logging and industrial agriculture and the loss continues today.<br />
<br />
The World Bank estimates 70% of logging in PNG is illegal and the United Nations has questioned PNG on the recent rollout of over 5 million hectares of agricultural leases. These leases - known as Special Agriculture and Business Leases (SABLs) - cover about 20% of the country’s forests. Representing one of the worst contemporary cases of cultural land grabs, they will decimate PNG’s remaining forests and biodiversity unless they are overturned. Photo: Paul Hilton / Greenpeace
