demand for palm oil
demand for timber
the chinese wanting to build dams

# data[].attributes.body
The demand for palm oil and timber affect deforestation. As well as the plan of the Chinese engineers to build 12 dams.

# data[].attributes.body
Demand for palm oil as a biofuel, timber and space for dams that will generate electricity.

# data[].attributes.body
There is a demand for palm oil, timber and the Chinese wants to implement 12 dams without considering the environmental factors like the orangutans. They only what to generate electricity

# data[].attributes.body
One cause of deforestation is Chinese engineers planning to build 12 dams which will cut through virgin land and displaced thousands of native people.
As well as this the demand for timber also increases the need for deforestion.
Half of Borneo’s rainforest have been cut down , the wood sold is then turned into oil palms

More tree loss by the coast
Easier to transport

# data[].attributes.body
1) all the areas of tree loss has been near and along the coast
2) this is because exporting wood and palm oil can be easier

# data[].attributes.body
1) The tree cover loss is more concentrated near the coast and this may be because it is more accessible near the coastline.

# data[].attributes.body
The income is too large to turn down, so TNCs keep cutting down forests

# data[].attributes.body
1) there is more cover tree loss cover (deforestation) towards the coastline while there isn’t much if any when going initially the centre
2)When the trees are cut down towards the coastline, it isn’t easier for people to export it

# data[].attributes.body
1) There’s more tree cover loss near the coasts , compared to the middle.

# data[].attributes.body
Borneo under threat from Chinese engineers to build 12 dams that will displace thousands of native Dayak people.
Will create 1.5m jobs.
The Bakun Dam has displaced an estimated 10,000 indigenous people.
Almost half of Borneo’s rainforests have been cut down, the wood sold and the land turned over to oil palms.
Will make the elite more rich.
About 85% of the world’s supply of palm oil.
Lots of floods.
Pesticide leeches into the soil.
Fish are also scarce, because the logging silts up the rivers.
Enormous fires cast a perpetual pall of toxic haze, making Indonesia the world’s third largest greenhouse gas polluter after China and the United States.
The Dayaks are being forced out of their villages because engineers from SinoHydro, a second Chinese contractor, are building a second dam.

1. There is more tree cover loss near the coast
2. Exporting trees from the coast may be easier as it is easily accessible by ships.
3.Demand for palm oil and timber, Chinese want to implement large dams but don’t care about the effect that it will have on orangutans.

# data[].attributes.body
There are less trees near the coast because of settlement taken place. This is because most people want to stay near the coast as it has a better views and easier trading/transporting goods.
Demand for biofuels such as palm oil. Also, for crops as they need water.

# data[].attributes.body
Reduction of canopies are beginning to increase, more than 30% loss of the canopy density which is displayed by the rising colours of pink showing deforestation.

# data[].attributes.body
One reason for the increase in deforestation is the world demand for timber and palm oil. Palm oil is known as ‘green gold’ and is used in many day to day products. The Chinese want to build big dams yet they are not considerate of the environment.

# data[].attributes.body
The further away from the coastline, deforestation has occurred less.

# data[].attributes.body
1) Deforestation is most concentrated in the areas near the coast.
2) This may be because this makes it easier to import the timber to other countries.

# data[].attributes.body
1) Deforestation occurs more near the coast

# data[].attributes.body
It has descrased due to deforestation. And destroyed woods

# data[].attributes.body
1.The forest canopy have become less dense, near the coast.
2. It is less dense near the coast as this is where deforestation has taken place, it is easier to transport the trees near the coast.

# data[].attributes.body
Deforestation has occurred the most on the edges of the forest this is because it will be easier to export demand for palm oil, timber and Chinese want to build dams

# data[].attributes.body
The loss of tree covers is concentrated on the coastline. These areas gradually decrease as you get further away from the coastline. This may be done because it makes it easier to transport the wood out of the country if the ocean is easily accessible.
