RED (LIST) ALERT 🚨Support our Projects in Borneo and Protect the Rainforest
RED (LIST) ALERT 🚨
According to the world's first Global Tree Assessment, more than one in three tree species are now at risk of extinction 🌳🌴
These stark figures have emerged at a pivotal moment, with world leaders gathered in Colombia for hashtag#COP16, the 2024 UN Biodiversity Conference. We won't know the outcome until Friday, but negotiators are hoping to approve a raft of new legislation aimed at ending nature loss by 2030 — a target as ambitious as it is absolutely necessary.
We use a variety of native trees as part of our hashtag#reforestation initiatives in Borneo, including threatened species such as red balau (Shorea balangeran). Planting at-risk species helps to preserve tree diversity and re-establish a healthy ecosystem, in turn supporting an abundance of plant and animal life.
We've collaborated with Verdant Brew Co & Heavy Friends!
We're collaborating with unfiltered beer heroes Verdant Brew Co and vinyl music junkies Heavy Friends to host a "Green theme" vinyl night at the Penryn Taproom in Cornwall. We have launched the "Green Dopamine" pizza that helps fund our climate action too.
If you're in the area come and celebrate with us, play records, eat Pizza and protect rainforest.

Happy International Orangutan Day!
On August 19th we celebrated International Orangutan Day for very good reason 🦧
In the last 12 months alone, not one, not two, but 3 baby orangutans have been born close to one of our camps in Borneo's peat-swamp rainforests.
Borneo is officially home to the world's largest population of orangutans; another reason why we must unite to protect Borneo any way we can.
We know that when communities are resilient, when forests are healthy and when ecosystems are balanced - life thrives.
This baby boom is proof that our connected approach to conservation works.
We're going to keep fighting to protect biodiversity, all biodiversity, and to restore rainforest in Borneo.
A big thanks to our family who continue to support us to do incredible things in rainforest: The Orangutan Project, Orangutan Appeal UK, Orangutan Land Trust, Orangutan Conservancy, Orangutan Outreach, Orangutan Republik and many more! 💚 Join us, help us help oranugtans.
