Simultaneous Tree Planting throughout Indonesia

Tree planting activities are a concrete and strategic effort to overcome the triple planetary crisis, namely climate change, pollution and the threat of loss of biodiversity. All three are interrelated and very urgent to be addressed.
Trees have multipurpose benefits for humans and all living creatures. Not only does it provide oxygen, but it is also a carbon storage place that no other living creature on earth has. The existence of trees is for the survival of humans and the universe, playing an important role in reducing Greenhouse Gas emissions, the source of life for living creatures, storing water, maintaining air temperature, reducing noise, and reducing the strength of the wind.
The presence of trees and good land cover will increase nature's carrying capacity in mitigating climate change, food security, energy and the welfare of all living creatures. Therefore, the Ministry of Environment and Forestry is committed to reducing emissions from the forestry sector and other land uses through Indonesia's FOLU Net Sink 2030.

“Jambi has the most complete forest and land ecosystem on the island of Sumatra. "We have a fairly strong commitment and have REDD+ institutions, as well as consistency in policies to prevent forest and land fires, conflict, Community and Institutional Based Forest Management," he said. said Al Haris.

“We have 3 pillars of Jambi Province's green economic growth strategy. First, sustainable land use, restoration and increased productivity. Second, human and institutional resource capacity through increasing access to development capital and livelihoods as well as utilization of environmental services. Lastly, connectivity and sustainable value chains,” explained.

“Apart from that, people are more prosperous with a good environment, higher people's incomes, agriculture that is environmentally friendly and oriented towards community welfare, and sustainable forests have an impact on the implementation of social forestry and customary law communities that are better and more prosperous,” he said.
Then continued Al Haris in supporting the achievement of Indonesia's FOLU Net Sink 2030 target, namely the target of reducing greenhouse gas emissions, Jambi Province through Real Emission Reduction Programs/actions, one of which is the J-SLMP BioCF-ISFL Program, has been synergized into Long Term Planning ( RPJP and RTRW), Medium Term Planning (RPJMD Jambi Province 2021-2026).

“Jambi Province remains consistent with the programs and activities implemented through regional apparatus, Regional Working Partners, Private Sector and Community Groups in an effort to fulfill the Jambi Province GHG Emission Reduction target and the ultimate goal of contributing to reducing Indonesia's GHG emissions and impacting community welfare,&rdquo ; added Al Haris.

For this reason, said Al Haris, strategic support is needed to achieve the optimal target for reducing greenhouse gas emissions in Jambi Province, which can be done with the following steps, firstly increasing supporting financing to support climate change adaptation and mitigation in Jambi Province; secondly, collaborative programs and activities to support the protection of environmental ecosystems and biodiversity through the role of multi-stakeholders.

“Jambi Province has prepared a Grand Growth Planning (GGP) Document as a guide for intervention activities to prioritize community welfare and improve the economy at the site level; encouraging programs related to fulfilling Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) targets in Jambi Province; increasing the role of cross-sectoral climate change institutions supported by International Donor Institutions; "Finally supporting Jambi Province's policy in developing the One Map Policy,"” concluded Al Haris.
