The Forest's Fury - Inga Simpson at Ubud Writers & Readers Festival

Our lives depend on forests. Among the oldest living systems on Earth, they sustain biodiversity and water systems, provide oxygen, and carry ancestral knowledge. Yet across Australia and Indonesia, forests continue to come under threat from commercial logging, development, and increasingly severe fires driven by climate change. What is lost when forests disappear, and what can be done to protect them? What can our neighbouring countries learn from each other? Join Australian ecologist and conservation biologist David Lindenmayer, Indonesian researcher and activist Agung Wardana, and Australian nature writer Inga Simpson, led by moderator Suzy Hutomo, for a cross-cultural conversation about the beauty, wisdom, and preservation of forests.

Kehidupan kita bergantung pada hutan. Sebagai salah satu sistem kehidupan tertua di Bumi, hutan menopang keanekaragaman hayati dan sistem air, menyediakan oksigen, serta menyimpan pengetahuan leluhur. Namun, di Australia maupun Indonesia, hutan terus menghadapi ancaman dari penebangan komersial, pembangunan, dan kebakaran yang semakin parah akibat perubahan iklim. Apa yang hilang ketika hutan lenyap, dan apa yang dapat dilakukan untuk melindunginya? Apa yang dapat dipelajari oleh kedua negara tetangga ini satu sama lain? Bergabunglah bersama ekolog dan ahli biologi konservasi asal Australia, David Lindenmayer, peneliti dan aktivis Indonesia, Agung Wardana, serta penulis alam asal Australia, Inga Simpson, dipandu oleh moderator Suzy Hutomo, dalam sebuah perbincangan lintas budaya tentang keindahan, kearifan, dan pelestarian hutan.
