Central Kalimantan's Environment and the Problems Facing It


What I really love about Central Kalimantan is the forests in it.  As what all of us have known, the forests of Kalimantan are the lungs of the world.  And it is just a pride to the inhabitants of Central Kalimantan that the people in the world are depending on our forest.  Central Kalimantan also has unique animals and plants that another place doesn’t, for example Orangutans and Tingang birds.  But, I also feel sad about the illegal loggings and burning forests that happen in Central Kalimantan.  I think people should’ve known that the forest is really important for human’s lives.  The illegal loggings and burning forests narrowed the habitats of the animals in Central Kalimantan. Some of those animals, like Orangutan, now are almost extinct because they lost their habitats.  It also can cause the imbalance in the forest ecosystem.

  1. We feel the same thing as you about the illegal loggings, etc. Many people do illegal loggings for themselves, they don't care about what the risks are. :) nice post!
