Indonesia building its own 'Jurassic Park' despite warnings
Fox News
Construction on an Indonesian tourism project dubbed "Jurassic Park" on social media will continue, the Southeast Asian country's environment ministry said on Thursday, despite UNESCO warnings the plans could have a negative environmental impact.
Last month, officials from the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) told a World Heritage Committee conference that the project required a new environmental impact assessment over illegal fishing concerns and the potential risk to the Komodo dragon's natural habitat. "This project will proceed...it's been proven to have no impact," Wiratno, a senior official at Indonesia's environment ministry, told Reuters.More Related News
