Indonesia aims to rehabilitate 12 million hectares of land and sell carbon offsets. The plan follows a sharp rise in forest loss reported during 2025.
Indonesia will rehabilitate 12 million hectares of degraded land to expand its carbon offset inventory. Forestry Minister Raja Juli Antoni announced the plan to integrate reforestation with international credit sales. The move aims to monetize environmental recovery as President Prabowo Subianto seeks new revenue streams for his administration.
### Carbon Credit Integration and Local Partnerships Indonesia has established regulations to govern high-integrity carbon offset sales involving local communities.
