Save Our Forest to Action Protect Climate

The countries with the rate of deforestation in the world such as Indonesia, Brazil and Congo became the drivers of gas-emissions of greenhouse gases and accelerate the impact of disturbed climate change we have felt. Indonesia is losing forest faster than countries in the world other owners. Indonesian forests decreased 1.8 million hectares per year, placing Indonesia ranked third emissioner state gas-greenhouse gases in the world. Deforestation is the main source of emissions of Indonesia. Until now, Indonesia has lost three-quarters of its natural forest area (about 72%) and from this amount 40% has been lost at all.

The main factors driving the high deforestation in Indonesia is a large-scale logging for paper industry, wood, peat land clearing for oil palm and increasing forest fires area occur every year for forest clearing. Floods, droughts, changes in climate patterns will affect food security, one of which caused the destruction of forests in Indonesia. The moratorium does not only help stop the emission, but also protect biodiversity, protect the lives of people dependent on forests across Indonesia.
