Green Gone Wrong
In this day and age, people in Indonesia, particularly Jakarta, are jumping on the "green" trends bandwagon in a quest to save the Earth from the effects of global warming. Unfortunately, many misunderstand the essentials of going green, and take the term too literally - by wearing shirts with environment messages, joining popular environment groups, and basically wearing all kinds of green accessories. And on a higher level, people start buying biofuel products made from palm oils for their vehicles. Whilst biofuel itself is indeed producing significantly less CO2 emissions, the industry continues to sacrifice hectares of forests daily, destroying the very essence of saving the planet.
