A group of Papuanese traditional dancers greets Greenpeace's vessel Esperanza during a welcoming ceremony at Jayapura port. Greenpeace's "Forests for Climate" ship tour to Indonesia aims to highlight the catastrophic impacts of deforestation for palm oil, logging and other industry expansion, on the global climate, biodiversity loss and forest-dependent people. Papua is the last frontier of intact ancient forest in Indonesia. The Esperanza (Spanish for "hope") carries the message ‘Melindungi Hutan, Menyelamatkan Iklim’, Indonesian for ‘Protecting Forests Saves our Climate’.
