Green jobs in Indonesia are defined as work that contributes to preserving the environment. Indonesia's economic growth has been coupled with rising greenhouse gas emissions. Committing to emission reduction targets will create new green job opportunities across sectors like forestry, energy, and construction by making industries more efficient. For example, developing geothermal energy has created green jobs in energy, construction, and carbon markets. Realizing its emission reduction commitments will guide Indonesia's development strategy and finance new green jobs over the long term.

Historical
Projection
2005 GHG emissions: 1,791 MtCO2e
2020 emissions projected to reach 2,950 MtCO2e
LUCF and peat major sources of emission until 2020
Energy-related emissions will be the fastest-growing

Our emission reduction commitment

Emissions reduction commitment in 2009 devised from LULUCF and energy mix
policies, setting targets of 26% with own resources and additional 15% with
international support, by 2020 against BAU scenario.
