Kyoto Protocol: Beyond 2012 | November-2007
A publication of Pelangi (2004)
The ratification of Russia as a party to the Kyoto Protocol has relatively secured the global efforts up to 2012, it is time to move to the question “what to do beyond 2012”? Will industrialized countries lead? Can EU provide credible leadership for climate policy? What are the views for Japan? What about the US with their non-Kyoto efforts? And, what about the developing countries? How can the negotiation on “beyond 2012” commence smoothly, given developing countries are rather reluctant to start? What are the current discussion in the developing countries? And Indonesia?

Climate Change
The threat of climate change is real, affecting our environment and people from all walks of life. Being a developing country which most of its population relies on natural resources, Indonesia is highly vulnerable. Development programs in various sectors must incorporate climate change issues in its planning for Indonesia to be better prepared with changes caused by global warming. Pelangi Indonesia plays its part by mainstreaming climate change into national and local policies. It includes collaborations in climate change mitigation and adaptation activities as well as participation in international climate change negotiations.
Energy
The diminishing supply of global fossil fuels and Indonesia’s inefficient use of energy have brought about negative consequences. Our over reliance on fossil fuels must be reduced because it burdens the national economy and contributes to global warming. In exchange, efforts must be made to promote the use of various renewable energy sources which are available in abundance locally. Pelangi Indonesia joins this effort through policies supporting energy efficiency and energy shifting from fossil fuels to renewable ones in order to ensure local and national energy security.
Transportation
The transportation systems in Indonesian cities tend to favour personal vehicles. In Jakarta the number of personal vehicles has tripled in the last ten years while public transport remains stagnant. On the other hand, roads are continuously built to accommodate the increasing number of cars and motorcycles. It leads to persistent traffic jams and large consumption of fuel causing air pollution and emission of greenhouse gases. Pelangi Indonesia works to promote an urban transportation system that adheres to sustainable development through integration between low emission per capita modes of transportation with non-motorized transportation in urban area.
