Impact Of Climate Change in Indonesia
Indonesia is one of the countries that is facing the threat of climate change. Floods, long droughts, landslides, forest fires that occur in Indonesia are related to climate change in the world. Generally, climate change that occurs in Indonesia revolves around large-scale deforestation, forest fires, damage to wetlands and the loss of carbon dioxide absorption. Strategies that can be done to deal with climate change are the development and improvement of irrigation networks, integrated natural disaster management, building infrastructure and protecting beaches from potential damage due to abrasion and sea level rise to public campaigns.
This
climate change has a challenge to development in terms of social and economic
environment in a sustainable manner as well as to the achievement of
Indonesia's development goals. To overcome this, we need to immediately
integrate climate change mitigation and adaptation into the social development
planning system.
The
government needs to protect water sources such as conservation of existing
water sources so that they don't break and get damaged, rivers are also secured
and the irrigation network is improved for the efficiency of water distribution.
For
conservation, the government together with the community needs to maintain
existing water sources in order to increase the efficiency of water use and
that is anticipation in overcoming the problem of climate change.
We need to
be able to find a way out together to overcome climate change and the
participation of all parties can be increased because whatever we do is also
influential for the life of the world because Indonesia is part of the world.
Prevent
Climate Change with Clean Energy
In Indonesia the energy sector contributes greatly to overcoming global climate change due to the high consumption of energy in all sectors
One of the
biggest causes of climate change is caused by (sector) energy, especially electricity
Until now,
the portion of the national energy mix is still dominated by energy that
comes from Coal. Steam Power Plant of coal is the largest contributor to
electricity generation with a portion of more than 50%.
In order
to suppress the dominance of these energy sources, the Government needs to
accelerate the development of power plants that minimize greenhouse gas
emissions.
Clean and
environmentally friendly energy plants that have been proven are Wind energy, Hydro
Power and the easiest rooftop PV.
If rooftop
PV.reaches an efficient and easily accessible price in the future. then we can
help reduce the level of emissions and climate change.
In
addition, the Government should also accelerates the presence of electric
vehicles because the energy consumption from the transportation sector that
comes from fossil fuels is also quite large.
So our
step is to use clean energy to help overcome the impact of climate change in
addition to maintaining the sustainability of forests and the replanting of
deforested forests
