Industrial Countries Most Responsible Over Global Warming
|
Forestry Minister Malam Sambat Kaban has said that industrial countries must be objective and appreciate Indonesia's attempt in reducing global warming. Indonesia, according to Kaban, has tried to set reforestation and rehabilitation critical land for reducing the impact over the increase of earth temperature due to forest damage. Within the last four years, Indonesia is capable of cutting down forests damaging as well as rehabilitating critical land. The rehabilitation attempt, said Kaban, is related to Indonesia's commitment in lessening earth warming. Developed countries, according to Kaban, should not always blame developing countries as the agent of the increase of earth temperature. The fact is that 80 percent of global warming originated from industry. “Industrial countries are the most responsible for global warming,” Kaban told Tempo this morning in Medan. Kaban will invite developing countries to strive for accountability from industrial countries over global warming. “Industrial countries must purchase clean air from countries that still have quite fine tropical forests such as Indonesia and Africa instead of accusing them that global warming was an impact of deforestation”, said Kaban.
