Continuing Justin's personal mission to help save the planet he has now put in place the next chapter as he heads to Indonesia on the Leuser Ecosystem Rainforest in Sumatra.
From his blog:
"Next I am off to India and then Indonesia where I have been in contact with the conservation groups there. Force for the Forest, SOS Orangutans, Turtle Survival Alliance.
I have been working with Tortoise Welfare UK while in England, making their website and helping with the sanctuary. Through them have attended conservation conferences and talks. Many tortoises come from Indonesia and are very endangered there, so through the B.C.G. (British Chelonia Group) I am applying for funding from them to do initial research on tortoises over there. I have completed GPS training and will be taking out GPS devices and cameras for the rangers, then I can train them on the use of the equipment.
After three months in Indonesia I shall head back to Portugal for a festival, well even conservationists need a break! Then to Morocco to do further tortoise research. After this I hope to join a Sea Shepherd ship for a few months."
