In the Mekong - Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand and Vietnam - we’re up against major challenges: big business, huge infrastructural plans and weak governance, as money is extracted from our shared forest resources and the defencess they provide for us from dangerous carbon dioxide levels are stripped away. From communities displaced by a gold mine in Myanmar to illegal poaching and logging in the Cardamom mountains of Cambodia and the expulsion of indigenous peoples from their ancestral lands in Thailand, this is a region where our voices are often shut down.

The #ShowMeYourTree campaign - inspired by Rainforest Journalism Fund and Rainforest Investigations Network reporting - is a simple, actionable call for all of us (really all of us) to weaponize our social media to defend our environment, share knowledge on our forests and make those in power listen.
