Postcards From the Future

The global call for this year's Earth Day was for everyone to work together to Restore Our Earth. Here in Malaysia, Malaysians are being called upon to plant 100 million trees by 2025 to promote the country's green agenda, but despite this, the degazettement of many forests are still being proposed by local authorities. While contemplating this disconnect, we will also look at how campaigners for environmental causes are getting creative to fight green-fatigue, and zoom in on the Postcards from the Future campaign, another weapon in the arsenal to stop the degazettement of the Kuala Langat North Forest Reserve.
