Indonesia has taken some action in reducing greenhouse gas emissions from deforestation and peatland areas through establishing a One Map policy to improve monitoring and conflict resolutions between stakeholders. [92] According to the Global Forest Watch, Indonesia lost 4.3 million hectares of tree cover between 2001 and 2020. [93]
Indonesia has been called the "most ignored emitter" that "could be the one that dooms the global climate." [21] It is "one of the largest emitters of greenhouse gases" (GHG). [22] 2013 measurements show Indonesia's total GHG emissions were 2161 million metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent which totaled 4.47 percent of the global total. [23]
Indonesia is a transcontinental country in Southeast Asia and Oceania.. The environment of Indonesia consists of 17,508 islands scattered over both sides of the equator. [1] [2] Indonesia's size, tropical climate, and archipelagic geography, support the world's second highest level of biodiversity after Brazil.
To limit global warming to less than 1.5 °C global greenhouse gas emissions needs to be net-zero by 2050, or by 2070 with a 2 °C target. [271] This requires far-reaching, systemic changes on an unprecedented scale in energy, land, cities, transport, buildings, and industry.
[12] [13] As of September 2022, nine global core tipping elements and seven regional impact tipping elements are known. [2] Out of those, one regional and three global climate elements will likely pass a tipping point if global warming reaches 1.5 °C (2.7 °F).
The ash burned and smothered crops, creating an immediate shortage of food in Indonesia.(Cole-Dai et al. 2009) [citation needed] The ejection of these gases, especially hydrogen chloride, caused the precipitation to be extremely acidic, killing much of the crops that survived or were rebudding during the spring.
16 February – Indonesia wins its first gold medal at the Badminton Asia Mixed Team Championships after Muhammad Shohibul Fikri and Daniel Marthin defeat China's Chen Xujun and Huang Di 21-15, 21-9 in the men's doubles at the 2025 edition held in Qingdao, China. [20]
A global atmospheric electrical circuit is the continuous movement of atmospheric charge carriers, such as ions, between an upper conductive layer (often an ionosphere) and surface. The global circuit concept is closely related to atmospheric electricity , but not all atmospheres necessarily have a global electric circuit. [ 2 ]
