Indonesia’s Climate Action Towards 2030
schedule 01 Mei 2023

Indonesia’s FOLU Net Sink 2030 agenda was developed at the time when the Country was taking a position of High Ambition on Climate Action, embracing 2022 as the year of Indonesia’s G20 Presidency. The ambitious target of negative emission for the FOLU sector shows extraordinary but realistic determination, built on the performance for at least seven years in alignment with President Joko Widodo’s central message to focus on real work “under promise, over deliver”. Now, we have set the milestone for reaching FOLU Net Sink! The legal basis for Indonesia’s FOLU Net Sink 2030 agenda is the Presidential Regulation No. 98 of 2021 on the Implementation of Carbon Pricing to Achieve the Nationally Determined Contribution Target and Control Over Greenhouse Gas Emissions in the National Development, in the Article 3 Paragraph (4). Guidelines for operation of Indonesia’s FOLU Net Sink 2030 agenda are provided in the Operational Plan document stipulated by the Environment and Forestry Ministerial Decree No. 168/2022. The document outlines detailed mitigation programs and activities, spatial approaches-based operational plan, persons in charge of the activities/programs, human resource needs, facilities and infrastructure, budgeting, and national implementation timelines for 2022-2030. The Operational Plan of Indonesia’s FOLU Net Sink 2030 is directed to reach an emission level at minus 140 Mt CO2e by 2030, and minus 304 Mt CO2e by 2050, leading to the net emission level for all sectors in the national level of 540 Mt CO2e or equivalent to 1.6 tonnes CO2 per capita. The target will be achieved through a set of strategic measures. Reducing the rate of deforestation and forest degradation is at the heart of the measures. It is coupled with the actions to develop plantation forests, implement sustainable forest management, promote social forestry and forest rehabilitation with and without rotation. Furthermore, peatlands and mangrove forests, two essential ecosystems storing high amounts of carbon stock will be highly protected and restored for those that have been degraded. Other measures include biodiversity and ecosystem conservation, law enforcement, development of various new policy instruments, as well as development of monitoring and evaluation systems. Indonesia’s FOLU Net Sink 2030 Agenda has a consequence that efforts and hard work conducted by all parties must be enhanced and aligned in a measurable and accountable manner. Collaboration and synergy amongst the relevant stakeholders, including central government, local governments, academic society, the private sector, and communities in the grassroots level play an essential role in attaining the ambitious agenda. Therefore, substantive climate actions carried out on the ground throughout the Country must be properly documented and systematically communicated to the public. This Book of FOLU Net Sink: Indonesia’s Climate Actions Towards 2030 constitutes an important documentation, not only for communicating strategic actions to address catastrophic climate change that have been thoroughly carried out by the Country, but also providing open information about the good performance of climate change-related stakeholder collaboration. It is delighting to see many parties taking parts in supporting Indonesia’s FOLU Net Sink Agenda. There is a hope that this publication will become a legacy and reference for all of us inmaking Indonesia’s Climate Action Towards 2030 victorious.
