The Rainforests of Borneo are the World's oldest Forests.
The Forests are believed to be more than 150 million years old with no interuption from Ice Ages, since the climate has remained tropical here. The Forests have some of the highest bio diversity of any biosphere on earth.
We teach the children at Borneo Child Aid Society's more than 60 Learning Centres in Sabah's remote areas to appreciate the forests and to understand the enormous wealth in having unspoiled nature and wildlife. www.borneochildaid.org
