ByDeforestation in Borneo due to palm oil plantations
The issue of deforestation in Borneo due to palm oil plantations is that palm oil company’s are taking down a lot of the trees. That forces all those animals out of there homes so they either get trapped by them or they leave there family members behind for them to get trapped or tranquilized to get put in a zoo. Oil palm is the most productive oil seed in the world. A single hectare of oil palm may yield 5,000 kilograms of crude oil, or nearly 6,000 liters of crude, making the crop remarkably profitable when grown in large plantations. As such, vast swathes of land are being converted for oil palm plantations. Oil palm cultivation has expanded in Indonesia from 600,000 hectares in 1985 to more than 8.6 million hectares by 2015, according to U.N. FAOSTAT.
One of my goals would be to stop them from taking down anymore trees because it gonna force the animals out and possibly die. They can just build whatever they want on the land the already took trees down from.
A team that wants to stop it is Malaysia’s central government, there setting rules to it so that will slow the process of deforestation down. My family and friends will help because they know its not right of what there doing. I selected that team because Malaysia knows the land and the rules and my family and friends support me. Malaysia has an asset that they can add rules and adjust the rules to it they can stop it when there not following the rules.
The resources I would need would be protesters so they would realize what they are doing is not good and they can find somewhere else that doesn’t need to be deforestation. I don’t think I would need money, I would need loyal people that would protest.

“In 2018, a wave of protest erupted when the public learned that the Sarawak government had granted the company Radiant Lagoon two oil palm concessions, amounting to 4,400 hectares (10,900 acres) of secondary rainforest bordering the western edge of the park.”
“Malaysia’s central government, including then-Primary Industries Minister Teresa Kok, who said she confronted a top Sarawak official about the plantations. “
“Though the company withdrew much of its machinery and has halted clearing since late 2019, the controversy over the concessions exemplifies the tensions that can arise between the environmental policies of Malaysia’s central government”
