- Palm oil: environmental curse or a blessing?
It is blamed for everything from deforestation to threatening the extinction of the orangutan, but palm oil is a vital source of income for many developing countries, the crop's producers say.In Indonesia, the world's largest palm oil producer, where the plant provides work for three million people, the government is keen to promote the benefits of the crop.Gatot Irianto, research director at Indonesia's Ministry of Agriculture, pleaded with producers, scientists and NGOs meeting on the holiday island of Bali last week to reconsider the plant's reputation. これは森林伐採がオランウータンの絶滅の脅威に至るまでには、責めて、パーム油、多くの開発途上国の所得の重要なソースですが、作物の生産say.Inインドネシアここでは、工場の仕事を提供する世界最大のパーム油生産300万人、政府はcrop.Gatot Irianto、インドネシアの農業省の調査ディレクター、の利点を促進するため熱望している生産者や科学者、バリでの休日の島のNGO会議では先週、プラントの評判を再考を認めた
- Osama: over to you, Hollywood
Who will be the key players in the blockbuster that's sure to come?Given Hollywood's eagerness to meditate on Osama bin Laden's biggest atrocities, you can guarantee that it won't hold back now his death has gifted it the chance for some sweet catharsis.Kathryn Bigelow is already making a project called Kill Bin Laden in time for the 2013 Oscars, but this is problematic. Not only will everyone have forgotten about the raid by then, but what if Bigelow decides to make it – shock horror – intellectual?No, to properly capitalise on the current global mood, we need a populist director such as Michael Bay (The Rock, Pearl Harbor, Armageddon) to turn this weekend's events into a kneejerk, all-American blockbuster to be released on Independence Day.Now that Barack Obama has shed his bookish image, he can be played by someone tough such as Denzel Washington or – better yet – Wesley Snipes in his full Blade get-up (pictured). Then there are the US soldiers who raided the compound – perhaps Kiefer Sutherland (Jack Bauer), Matt Damon (Jason Bourne), one of the Transformers, and the retired WWF tag team Legion of Doom? For comic relief, Sohaib Athar – the man who inadvertently livetweeted the raid – could be played by Omid Djalili.Speaking of which, there's a prime opportunity to use the technology that created the Winklevoss twins in The Social Network to allow Clyde, the orangutan from Every Which Way But Loose, to portray both Donald Trump and George W Bush. Finally, there's Bin Laden himself; a role for Catherine Zeta Jones or the little girl from the Narnia films?Part-24, part-Rambo, all-Kickass – and with a soundtrack by Bruce Springsteen, John Cougar Mellencamp and every single country singer ever – this film will make you laugh and cry and whoop, and contemplate b 来る？オサマビンラディンの最大の残虐行為について黙想して、ハリウッドの熱意考えることだ大ヒットの重要な選手になることは誰には、今では彼の死は、いくつかの甘いcatharsis.Kathrynのためにそれに才能豊かなチャンスを持って戻って保持していないことを保証することができますビゲローは、すでに2013年アカデミー賞のための時間で殺すビンラディンと呼ばれるプロジェクトを作っているが、これは問題がある
- Complacency over deforestation pushes orang-utan closer to extinction | Jimmy Bond
Illegal logging and hunting continues despite legal protection, so the WWF is raising awareness to help save the orang-utanThe destruction of the world's rainforests continues at an alarming rate. Where I'm from in Borneo, illegal logging, coupled with hunting, is driving species such as the orang-utan ever closer towards extinction.There are three subspecies of orangutan in Borneo and we only have about 2,000 orangutans left in the wild in West Kalimantan province, and through deforestation and hunting their numbers continue to fall. Just last month I heard from villagers that some people are still killing and eating them even though they're supposed to be protected by law.I've just been travelling around the region in this part of Indonesia as I've been running a series of summer schools as part of a WWF awareness campaign to highlight the problems facing the orang-utan.Over the past two years, the main focus for the campaign has been children because we've found it very difficult to change the minds and attitudes of older generations. We invite the kids to come along to these camps from nearby villages and at the last one more than 200 kids turned up. We do many different activities from drawing to tug-of-war competitions but the over-arching aim is to touch their hearts with stories about this wonderful creature and the rainforests in which they live. We want to leave them with the understanding that these unique creatures need protecting.We're also starting to join forces with local government officials and religious leaders to spread the message to communities that live in traditional longhouses. We tell them about a recent success story that acts as a warning against killing orang-utans. One trader in Pontianak, where I'm based, was recently jailed for two years 違法伐採は、狩猟は、法的保護にもかかわらず引き続き、WWFは、世界の熱帯雨林のオランウータンutanThe破壊を救うために意識を高めていますので、驚くべき速さで進んでいます
