Deforestation in Indonesia is destroying the people’s natural environment which is occurring mainly in Borneo and other bigger islands. Villagers and communities rely on these forests as a primary source of food and shelter, and when loggers move in and clear away the forests; a lot of wildlife is driven out, making it harder for these communities to find food. Many Indonesians live with this constant threat of illegal logging which is killing their forest and they would do anything to stop it. The Environmental Investigation Agency provided some villagers of Indonesia with secret filming equipment to provide them evidence to arrest the illegal loggers. The EIA hopes those films will increase investigations into illegal logging and increase overall awareness on this major issue.
