Men perform traditional songs and dance to welcome the Greenpeace flagship, the Rainbow Warrior in to the Port Moresby Harbour. The forests in the Western Province of Papua New Guinea are under threat from illegal, unsustainable logging. Already logging companies have acquired 70 per cent of the available forest resource in Papua New Guinea, threatening local forest communities who depend on the forests for food, clean water and medicine. Greenpeace launched the Global Forest Rescue Station (GFRS) when tribes from Lake Murray invited them to help protect their ancient forest. Volunteers from all over the world set about ‘boundary marking’ over 300,000 hectares of remote forest, declaring ownership and rights to the land passed down to the tribes through the generations. The landowners were then trained in forest management as they prepare to implement new eco-forestry businesses in the area.
