Our planet may be the luckiest planet...
was created by The Almighty Creator.
Earth is the home and
as well as a provider...
for all living creatures
that live on it.
Nature with all of its greatness,
not only offers the beauty...
but also a hope for human race
to sustain civilization.
Nature and human are
inseparable unity.
Nature sustains the human with
its abundant resources...
while human sustains the
nature by keep preserve it.
Animal, plants, and human, synergize to
maintain the continuity of civilization.
Each has its duties and functions
that complements of one another.
As humans, we can't escape from our
dependence with the nature itself.
History of human civilization can not
be separated from the role of nature.
Perhaps, nature is the
answer to the question...
"How do we survive?"
According to mythology of Java...
Java was formerly lowland which floated
down in the middle of the ocean.
Bathara Guru who does not want the
beauty of the island is sinking,
then ordered the Gods to move half
of the mountain in India to Java.
That Volcano then they put
in west side of Java island.
People call it... Mount Ciremai.
However, because Java being biased...
the Gods cut off part of that mountain
and move it to the east side.
Along the way, soil which is transported by
the gods fallen and splattered to earth.
And scattered on the ground become the
mountains along the island of Java.
Indonesia is a paradise for
thousands of creatures.
Fertile land and beautiful nature,
is a gift from the volcano...
scattered in various parts of
Indonesia on millions years ago.
With 127 active volcanoes which
spread from Aceh to Papua,
make Indonesia known as
"The Ring of Fire".
The island of Java...
has 30 percent from the total of the
active volcanoes in the archipelago.
One of them is Mount Slamet.
The second highest mountain in Java has a
height of 3342 meters above sea level.
The mountain which
covered up of 5 districts...
they are Brebes, Tegal, Pemalang,
Banyumas, and Purbalingga,
to be one of the intact
ecosystem on the Java island.
Lava and volcanic ash that
burst, carrying minerals...
and make the Mount Slamet
rich in biodiversity.
Forests, and all creatures are two
things that can not be separated.
Forests ensure that animals and humans
get sufficient oxygen supply...
for their survival.
When many of forests in the lowlands,
be cleared away to fulfill human desires...
mountain become the last place where diverse
of species refuge behind the trees.
