Our CSR Program in environmental field is about preserving sea turtles.
Why sea turtles?
Sea turtles, one of the Earth’s most ancient creatures, have been in this world for about 200 million years, since the time of the dinosaurs. There are seven species of sea turtles.
Indonesia, due to its strategically geographic position,
has six out of the seven species of sea turtles in the world.
Only within the last 20 years, sea turtle’s population in the world drastically decreased or even can be considered nearly extinct. Four of the total seven species have been identified as
“endangered” or “critically endangered” with another two being classed as “vulnerable”.
The extinction of sea turtles caused mostly by human doing. Beside sea pollution, hunting sea turtles’ eggs also become one of the leading causes of this.
By cooperating with Banyuwangi Sea Turtle Foundation (BSTF), We are commited to help preserving sea turtles and teaching kids to be aware and care for their environment
Banyuwangi Sea Turtle Foundation (BSTF) is a non-profit and non- governmental organization whose mission is to protect and preserve the turtles, especially sea turtles that live outside of protected areas. The foundation was established on July 27, 2011 in Banyuwangi, East Java
