To celebrate this year, GEC is organizing a mangrove planting activity in Kuala Gula, Perak this weekend (6 February 2010). Our dedicated Sahabat Hutan Bakau group have been caring for thousands of mangrove seedlings over the past year in our mangrove nurseries and the seedlings are now ready to face the real world on their own!  Students from local schools as well as community members will be involved in planting 1000 mangrove seedlings. Stay tuned for some awesome photos of the event!       HELP PROTECT THE KOTA DAMANSARA FOREST! GEC along with other organisations like MNS and Wild Asia have been working with the community to help protect the Kota Damansara Community Forest Park for the past few years. However, there is a new threat on the way. A private housing development is being proposed in the forest area, which will lead to further destruction of the 100-year old forest!
