The village of Pante Cermin, in Indonesia’s Aceh province, on the island of Sumatra, is a simple, hand-to-mouth place at the rainforest edge. Like many poor rural communities in Asia, farmers will gravitate toward whatever activity is paying well. In recent years, it’s been logging in the nearby hillsides. Thanks to a brisk trade arising from post-tsunami reconstruction they can earn more than $200—equivalent to a teacher’s monthly salary—for each cubic meter of logged wood.
