Help us to restore damaged peatland rainforest, vital habitat for the world's largest remaining protected population of Bornean orangutans.

Story

Much of Borneo's peat-swamp forests have been drained and degraded by human activity, which causes the peat to dry out and become highly flammable. In 2015, forest fires ravaged millions of hectares of forest, burning for weeks on end. Vast areas of forest and their biodiversity were lost, the health impacts for local people were huge, and extensive peat carbon stores were released into the global atmosphere. Help Borneo Nature Trust kickstart their 1 million trees campaign to restore a critical peat-swamp forest ecosystem in Borneo, home to the worlds largest protected population of orangutans. They aim to grow, plant and protect 1 million trees by 2025, sequestering carbon to lead the fight against climate change and protecting a vast biodiversity-rich rainforest.
