Description
As part of #Tezos4Nature challenge, I'm joining this great effort to spread awareness through my documents.
One of the world's oldest rainforests, the Borneo Rainforest is estimated to be 130 million years old and is home to a mind-boggling variety of plant and animal life, including 15,000 different kinds of plants, 3,000 different kinds of trees, 221 different kinds of land mammals, and 420 different kinds of birds. Due to the fact that Borneo is the third biggest island in the world, it is home to a number of species that are found nowhere else in the world. These species' natural habitats are distinct from one another and are threatened with extinction. You can see a variety of Borneo's animals, including pygmy elephants and clouded leopard, watch orangutans and gibbons, and bearded pigs and deer. The rainforest rich and irreplaceable home to a variety of animals, including primates, ungulates, and birds. Borneo's rainforest is home to a wide variety of flowers and plants, including the enormous Rafflesia, which has flowers that can reach up to 100 centimeters in width.
Deforestation is a particular concern in tropical rain forests because these forests are home to most of the world’s biodiversity. Take the case of the world's largest rainforest Amazon, it has been deprived of around 17% of its lush wilderness in the last 60 years, mostly due to forest fire, monoculture, mining and illegal logging. Deforestation in this region is particularly rampant near more populated areas, roads and riverine, but even remote areas have been encroached upon when valuable mahogany, minerals, and oil are discovered.
As per the report from WWF, the world's most ecologically important forest landscapes, including forest homes for orangutans, tigers, and elephants will suffer cataclysmic damage or loss (of about 80 percent) globally by 2030, Up to 420 million acres of forest could disappear between 2010 and 2030 in these "deforestation fronts" if current trends continue. The hot spots are located around the Amazon, the Atlantic Forest and Gran Chaco, Borneo, the Cerrado, Choco-Darien, the Congo Basin, East Africa, Eastern Australia, Greater Mekong, New Guinea, and Indonesia.
