The peat swamp forests of Borneo are home to the world's largest population of wild orangutans; and one of the largest networks of illegal logging canals. Canals dry the swamp leading to massive wildfires. We build dams to reflood the swamp, protecting the habitats of orangutans. Give a dam with us.

Wildfires destroy the peat swamp habitats of wild orangutans, impact the lives of local people and release millions of tonnes of carbon impacting the global climate. Illegal logging canals have drained the peat swamp forests, drying it out, making it extremely vulnerable to fires.
We dam the illegal logging canals, over 1000 to date, to restore the forest back to its fireproof state to protect orangutan life, all biodiversity, people and the global climate.
