Environmental Concerns Surround Indonesia's New Capital.

The construction of Indonesia's new capital, Nusantara, in Borneo, has raised concerns among conservationists about the impact on endangered species such as orangutans, dolphins, and proboscis monkeys. The government plans to adopt a "forest city" concept with over 75% green space and carbon neutrality by 2045. However, experts worry about the lack of conservation knowledge among the public and the potential for conflicts between humans and animals. The government has promised to prioritize wildlife protection and establish a wildlife response unit and call center.
