The continuing struggle by Papua New Guinea landowners to save their forests

"They used timber authorities, which are actually only for small areas, like 50 hectare blocks, if you're going to build a road, or if you're going to set up a small cocoa block or something like that. They use them for multiple and large areas, including for log exporting."

    It’s important to hold those responsible accountable and make sure these permits are used properly.

      Land conservation easement must remain to be a legally binding agreement between landowner and a land trust or government agency.

              This exploitation should stop! It undermines their efforts to conserve the environment.

                  Very interesting, it's not often we hear about Papua New Guinea, landowners who want to protect nature should be supported by their government
