“…Many oil palm plantations are cleared on shrub and other marginal lands. This is supported by research of Gunarso et al (2012) who has conducted a land cover analysis of Landsat imagery with results showing that in the period of 1990-2010 there was an increase of 6.7 million ha of oil palm plantation from waste land of 43%, agricultural land of 14%, industrial forest estate of 12%. In general, land conditions are degraded land and low-carbon.…”

Abstract. Oil palm is a strategic mainstay product with a crucial role in the national economy, and it can also be carbon sink to mitigate the negative impact of global warming when managed in environmentally friendly manner. Therefore, management and surrounding community need to have an understanding of the environment, and pro-environmental attitude and behaviour. Action research, which aimed at mitigating global warming through the local action of environmental education (EE), was conducted toward oil palm plantation employee and surrounding community. The EE programme was expected to be able to shape understanding and pro-environmental attitude and behaviour in the target group. Rapid observation and interview were carried out in collecting data for EE programme development. A needs assessment was conducted in developing the EE subject; based on local environmental problems and gap of target group's perception of the problems. Global warming-related environmental problems found in the location included air temperature increase, drought and difficulty in determining planting season. Spatial analysis based on 1989 and 2014 satellite imagery showed a decrease of the water body, tree vegetated land and open areas, and an increase in non-tree vegetated land and built land, accompanied by an increase in areas with higher temperature range. Both employees and the community had a good knowledge of the environment, but less in conservation. The environmental education provided for them had been able to increase their perception on environmental conservation. However, repetition and intensive assistance are still needed to strengthen the perception.Keywords: community, employee, environmental education, global warming mitigation, increase in perception, students.

“…So far there have been many accusations stating that 67% of oil palm plantations are obtained from forest conversion [13]. Gunarso et al [14] tried to examine the truth of forest conversion in Indonesia for oil palm plantations. This is done by using data from disturbed and undisturbed forest land cover classes according to the carbon stock sequence published by the Forestry Planning Agency in 2011.…”

Climate Change in Asia and Africa - Examining the Biophysical and Social Consequences, and Society's Responses

The impacts of climate change are changes in rainfall patterns, sea level rise and extreme weather or extreme meteorological events. This impact will further provide dangers that threaten the sustainability of human life. The main causes of climate change are deforestation and forest degradation and the growth rate of industry and transportation modes that are not environmentally friendly. Therefore, Indonesia is participating in the Paris Agreement and implementing the Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation program, role of conservation, sustainable management of forest and enhancement of forest carbon stocks in developing countries (REDD+). In an effort to increase the prosperity of the State, many forests have been transferred to other uses such as the development of oil palm plantations, agricultural land and urban expansion etc. In fact, many agricultural lands have changed their function into settlements. If this happens, the forest area will continue to decrease again because after the agricultural land has turned into residential land, the forest land is converted again for agricultural expansion, this happens continuously. When viewed from the CO2 flux, there will also be changes in the basic CO2 flux from forest land, plantation land, agriculture and urban areas. The problem of deforestation and forest degradation is inseparable from the large number of forest conversion functions into oil palm plantations, expansion of agricultural areas and other uses such as urban development and infrastructure. Opportunities for climate change mitigation and adaptation include the implementation of the REDD+ program, financing of climate change mitigation and availability of climate information. The challenges faced include the lack of synergy in the policy framework and implementation of climate change control, recognition of indigenous peoples’ rights and uncertainty in the implementation of the REDD+ program.

“…Development of the palm oil sector is often highlighted as a major driver of deforestation, and previous studies have shown that 56% of oil palm plantations in Indonesia were developed via forest conversion [7,43]. However, the deforestation caused by oil palm plantations that were developed on primary and secondary forest land represents a minor percentage and most oil palms were planted on farmland rather than secondary forest and marginal land [9].…”

“…While 56% of oil palm plantations involve forest conversion [7], it is, however, claimed that the proportion of plantations originating from the conversion of primary and secondary forests is very small. Most plantations were planted on agricultural land, followed by secondary forest and marginal land [9]. Despite large increases in the extent of plantations, there has been a decrease in the proportion of plantations replacing forests, from 54% during 1995 to 2000 to 18% during 2010 to 2015 [10].…”

Optimization of Crude Palm Oil Fund to Support Smallholder Oil Palm Replanting in Reducing Deforestation in Indonesia

Smallholders play a significant role in the Indonesian palm oil industry. They cultivate more than 40% of the total plantation area, and their production contributes to the national revenue. However, despite their significant role, smallholders continue to face crop management, financial and environmental challenges. The fact that some smallholder plantations are illegally located in state forestland poses challenges for smallholders as regards getting access to finance, improving yields, and obtaining sustainable certification. Government policy on the collection of levies from exported crude palm oil (CPO fund) and its derivative products provides smallholders the opportunity to replant and support their sustainable practices, thereby reducing deforestation. This paper discusses how fiscal incentives of the CPO fund may have been optimized to prioritize these outcomes. We should prioritize the use of the fund not only to support smallholder replanting, but also to clarify their land tenure rights, so that they could get access to sustainable certification and financial institutions. It is also recommended that funds be allocated to subsidize loan interest to the bank and build productive capital during the grace period. These efforts have to be accompanied by building and improving smallholder databases and strengthening local government.
