JAKARTA - The coastal ecosystem is a very important area in the sustainability of life on earth. This region is a transition between land and sea, which provides various benefits.
These benefits include habitat for many species, natural resources, protection from natural disasters, and space for economic activities such as fisheries and tourism.
However, waste disposal in coastal ecosystems is increasingly becoming a big problem that can damage the balance of nature. The impact of garbage in coastal areas is not only harmful to the environment, but also has an impact on human health and the economy.
This time, the Indonesian Ministry of Forestry collaborated with the Nusantara Nature Conservation Foundation (YKAN) to protect nature and preserve life in several regions in Indonesia.
Secretary General of the Conservation of Natural Resources and Ecosystems (KSDAE) of the Indonesian Ministry of Forestry, Ammy Nurwati, said that the preservation of biodiversity is the government's main concern.
However, challenges such as pollution, addition, illegal hunting, as well as illegal activities such as logging, fishing, and mining pose a serious threat.
He also added that the existence of 6,000 villages around the conservation area is a challenge, especially related to the welfare of the community
"Securities have an impact on coastal ecosystems, including mangroves, seagrass, and coral reefs. Loss of biodiversity due to additional, hunting, and other illegal activities also continues to increase," said Ammy, when met in the City Forest by Plataran, Jakarta on Wednesday, December 4, 2024.
"We need to involve the community to overcome this. If people get economic benefits, they tend to protect the area," he continued.
Ammy admitted that the Government is looking for various solutions to preserve the natural environment. Conservation is an effort made by humans to preserve or protect nature.
"The government may not experience problems in one solution. As an illustration, this area demands the efforts we need to find a solution. What is the solution? Conservation and natural resources that preserve," he explained.
Not only the Government, this event is also a challenge for companies and society to continue to protect nature and biodiversity.
"The future challenge to preserve biodiversity is very large, diverse and complex. The government cannot overcome these challenges alone." he continued.
