Now, I will share the article from http://www.un.or.id, hope it can be useful 🙂
Climate change is one of the major challenges of our time. From shifting
weather patterns that threaten food production, to rising sea levels
that increase the risk of catastrophic flooding, the impact of climate
change is global in scope and unprecedented in scale. Indonesia is no
exception: the frequency of severe flooding in Papua and of critically
low yields of crops in NTT are warning signs of the climate change
threat in this country. Adapting to climate change and mitigating its
effects will be more difficult and costly the longer this challenge is
ignored.

While climate change affects everyone, its negative impacts are more
severely felt by poor people. In Indonesia, landslides caused by rains
in deforested lands affect mostly the rural poor. Restoring and
maintaining key ecosystems can help communities in their adaptation
efforts while also creating jobs.

Climate Change management is a top priority for the Government of
Indonesia. The National Medium-Term Development Plan (RPJMN 2010-2014)
highlights the importance of conservation, and utilization of the
natural environment to support sustainable economic growth and increased
welfare of the people. To anticipate the impact of climate change the
Government is working on pollution and emission controls, reducing
deforestation, peat lands management improvements and environmental
rehabilitation. In support of these efforts, the Government seeks to
increase climate change funding sources and to improve the coordination
among related ministries.

The President of Indonesia Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono has made a strong
commitment to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 26 percent by
2020, with additional 15 percent reduction contingent upon international
support. Indonesia’s commitment to this reduction of emissions was
initially announced by the President in Pittsburgh in September 2009
during a meeting of G20 states, and reaffirmed in Copenhagen during the
Summit on Climate Change in December 2009. This commitment was
incorporated in the National Action Plan to Reduce GHG Emissions
(RAN-GRK).
