The Orangutan Project.

In this episode, I interview Leif Cocks the founder of The
Orangutan Project. Leif has worked with and campaigned for
orangutans for almost 30 years. Leif’s years in the field have
earned him respect within the conservation field. He has been a key
player in developing conservation plans for orangutans and
influencing positive change for orangutan protection and
survival.  The Orangutan Project: collaborates with several
orangutan conservation projects, as well as providing habitat
protection and land acquisition through its own programs to deter
wildlife poaching, illegal logging, and land clearing in Indonesia.
We talk about: Why Orangutan's habitat is being destroyed Why
economically it is bad for local communities What consumers can do
to shop smarter to protect Orangutang habitat I hope you enjoy
listening.
