How can we redesign the way land is used in Indonesia to support orangutans and people at the same time?
Problem: Oil palm is a plant that provides a key ingredient for foods and cosmetics. Oil palm uses less land to grow compared to other crops, but it grows in the same places as tropical rainforests. Oil palm is a cash crop that provides farmers in Indonesia with a steady income to support their families. When farmers clear land to plant oil palm, they sometimes cut down tropical rainforests. This is related to decreases in orangutan and tiger populations.
