Boomerang Rock Band in Central Kalimantan

Greenpeace traveled to Central Kalimantan and found schools closed, hospitals full of children with respiratory illnesses, and forests with fires, smoke and distressed wildlife. In one location near the Nyaru Menteng Orangutan Sanctuary west of Palangkaraya, Greenpeace found burned peatland and forest remains, planted with oil palm seedlings. The most recent public maps, several years old, do not indicate any oil palm concession has been granted there. Unless government ensures that all company land tenure is available for public scrutiny, those profiting from fires cannot be held accountable.
