Aerial view of land clearing by PT KPC, a subsidiary of Sinar Mas Group, close to Sentarum Lake National Park in West Kalimantan. Sinar Mas is Indonesia's largest palm oil producer. Palm oil producers are destroying vast tracts of rainforest for palm oil production, pushing orangutans to the brink of extinction, endangering local communities’ survival and accelerating climate change.
Forest destruction produces about one fifth of global greenhouse gas emissions, more than what emitted by all the cars, planes, and trains in the world.
