Kalimantan forest is in crisis. Plants and animals living in it is threatened with extinction. Many cultures and communities of the forests for their livelihoods are also threatened. But not all is bad news. There is still hope to save these forests.

These forests maintain environmental systems that are important to life on earth. They influence weather by controlling rainfall and evaporation of water from the soil. They help stabilize the global climate by storing large amounts of carbon which, if not saved will contribute to climate change.

Inviting the community to protect the forests, planting new trees, and preventing people to use as a livelihood.

Approximately one million hectares of forests previously under government control early flourish, now ruined. Supervision should be given to the public that after under the supervision of local community groups.

State control over forests is not effective because the government failed to invite local communities to keep the government forest, when supervision is given to the local community, this makes them become more responsible.
