JAKARTA - Efforts to anticipate air pollution continue to be the main concern of the community. NASA said there has been an increase in the area of green area on Earth over the past two decades. The increase occurred by 5 percent, or more than two million square kilometers of green area when compared to the 2000s. However, the increase in green areas on Earth is also accompanied by an increase in air pollution, which continues to increase by up to 4 percent.

The rate of increasing air pollution has resulted in the process of absorbing pollution through plants in green areas not occurring optimally. Especially in Indonesia, the problem of air pollution in recent times has continued to increase.

The air quality index, precisely in Jabodetabek, is always in the red and orange categories, unhealthy and unhealthy for sensitive groups, causing a spike in cases of upper respiratory infection / ISPA in hospitals and various other diseases.

The Mobility Beam, Asia Pacific's largest sharing micro mobility company, has started the first step towards reducing air pollution through the provision of micromobility services. BEAM Mobility provides environmentally friendly transportation to help reduce air pollution and support sustainable lifestyles for the community.

Country Manager of Beam Mobility Indonesia, Devraj Sathivelu said, Beam Mobility continues to strive to introduce micro mobility services in various regions in Indonesia.

"Currently, micro-mobility strategies are an alternative trend chosen by various countries to help reduce congestion and reduce carbon/CO2 and NO2 emissions," he explained in a written statement, Thursday, September 7.

The Indonesian government continues to strive for handling air pollution, especially to achieve the Net Zero Emission 2060 target. In Indonesia, Beam Mobility has been present in several cities and areas including Bogor and Bali, educational areas such as the University of Indonesia to residential areas such as Bintaro, Jababeka, Alam Sutera, Jakarta Garden City, Citra Raya, Sedayu City, and several other residential areas.

Beam Mobility itself has operated ride-sharing scooter and electric bicycle services in more than 60 cities in Australia, New Zealand, Malaysia, Thailand, Korea, and Turkey.

Devraj explained, after almost 1 year of presenting the Beam Mobility service in Indonesia, we saw a change in community mobilization activities, one example of which was in Bintaro where we saw an upward trend in the use of our fleet of up to 300 percent for the commute from and to train stations in the last 3 months.

"This is our main goal of being established, namely to fulfill the brief mobilization activity without having to use fossil fuel vehicles. More than that, Beam Mobility is not just an environmentally friendly ridesharing e-bike service. But Beam Mobility is an initiation program that stimulates the participation of the community to live a new lifestyle that is more sustainable. consequence," added Devraj.

In 2019 Beam received Neutral Climate certification as a company that pays attention to eliminating carbon emissions. Beams are also targeting to go further to reduce carbon emissions by implementing a Reduction Action Plan by switching to using an electric fleet from certified renewable sources, as well as converting to certified energy sources for all of its operational activities.
