I AM HONOURED TO SHARE MY FILMS WITH YOU, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO SHARE THEM WITH YOUR FRIENDS 

The films I'd especially draw your attention to are GREENLOSING TOMORROW and LIFE IS ONE to help you appreciate the startling reality of what is becoming of the Indonesian rainforest and its wildlife. ALMA shows you the driving forces behind the destruction of the Amazon in Brazil, and THE CATHEDRAL FOREST gives an insight into the threats facing the Congo Basin forest. 

Please share this website with your family and friends. You can also organize screenings of the films at your school, university, workplace or at any non-profit, non-commercial event. The DVDs of GREEN, ALMA and LIFE IS ONE can be purchased for better screening quality

There is also a website for the film GREEN, for teachers and students, created by Professor Dan Brockington of Manchester University, UK. 

BE AN EXAMPLE

One way to help protect the rainforest around the world is to consider your own actions that may have an effect in its destruction. To stop taking part in deforestation is, of course, is more easily said then done, but it is something we can all individually strive towards. I don’t like to tell people what they should do or should not do, but I invite you to follow my example if you think it’s right. In order to minimise my impact and not be part of rainforest destruction, here is what I try my best to do to (or not do):

It is hard to constantly be diligent in ensuring that a good practice is followed, and each person has to make their own decisions and form their own best practice. On a daily basis, I try my best to limit my consumption of all the items in the above list and to minimise my personal general consumption.

Last but not least, I have no chrildren which allows me to have even less of a footprint on the planet, to give all of my fatherly love to sun bear orphans and to dedicate myself fully to environmental and animal protection.
