It’s been a lot of heavy news lately, so we’re taking a breather to celebrate #WorldOrangutanDay! In Malay, “orangutan” means “forest people.” While they’re actually primates not people, they are very similar to us, sharing 97% of our DNA!! (1/4) Image
The Sumatran Orangutan is an arboreal creature, which means it lives, eats, & sleeps almost exclusively in the tree tops of the rainforests of Sumatra, Indonesia - this is part of the reason it’s so important to #KeepForestsStanding 🌳(2/4)
Of the 14,000 Sumatran Orangutans left in the world, 85% live in the Leuser Ecosystem of Indonesia, which is constantly under threat by greedy corporations looking to chop down the habitat for palm oil plantations, pulp & paper, or wooden furniture. (3/4)

@danatariganz Tarigan, Direktur WALHI daerah Sumatera Utara mengatakan “PJB Investasi sebagai sponsor proyek dan pemegang saham 25% dari PT. NSHE harus menghentikan pembangunan proyek PLTA Batang Toru. #SaveOrangutanTapanuli #WorldOrangutanDay #TheLast800 #TapanuliOrangutan
Pencapaian target 23% bauran energi terbarukan pada tahun 2025 bukan berarti harus menghancurkan ekosistem yang kaya akan biodiversitas seperti Batang Toru #SaveOrangutanTapanuli #WorldOrangutanDay #TheLast800 #TapanuliOrangutan
Proyek PLTA skala besar bukanlah pilihan yang tepat, harusnya pemerintah fokus pada pengembangan proyek listrik skala kecil yang melibatkan peran serta masyarakat dan ramah terhadap lingkungan hidup” Pungkasnya. #SaveOrangutanTapanuli #WorldOrangutanDay #TheLast800
