Reduce your consumption of paper and wood products. Making paper and wood products requires logging, which contributes to the destruction of the silvery gibbon's habitat. To help reduce your impact, you can reduce your consumption of paper and wood products. Here are a few examples of how you can make a difference:
Choose digital options over paper whenever possible. For example, use e-books instead of paperback books, pay bills online, and use electronic greeting cards instead of paper ones.
Recycle paper and wood products. Many local recycling centers accept paper and wood products for recycling, which reduces the need to harvest new materials.
Purchase recycled paper and wood products. Buying products made from recycled materials helps to support recycling and reduce the demand for new materials.
Spread the word. One of the best ways to help save the silvery gibbon from extinction is to spread the word about this critically endangered species. Talk to your friends, family, and colleagues about the silvery gibbon. Share information about them on social media. Support organizations that are working to save the silvery gibbon by educating the public. Help to inspire others to protect this extraordinary primate.
