This project is an interactive data-driven story map that visualizes the ecological footprint of Indonesia's massive nickel industrialization. While the global energy transition drives the demand for electric vehicles, this expansion heavily impacts vital ecosystems at the local level. Focusing on crucial regions like Sulawesi, Halmahera (North Maluku), and Papua, this platform guides users through a geographic narrative that highlights the alarming intersection between mining concessions and primary rainforests.
