1. Sustainable Environmental Management: Lessons from Indonesia
2022 by Jatna Supriatna, Ralph Lenz
Currently, the imminent threat of climate change has reached a critical juncture, casting a shadow over the world's development, particularly in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic's economic aftermath, the energy crisis stemming from the Ukraine conflict, and the overarching climate crisis. Unfortunately, many global leaders underestimate the gravity of the climate change issue, which has now escalated into a full-blown crisis. This crisis has far-reaching repercussions, exacerbating economic and energy challenges while swiftly morphing into a biodiversity catastrophe, water scarcity, and a global hunger crisis. Inevitably, it may also incite political unrest in the form of distrust in government authority to address these crises effectively. This somber outlook necessitates a comprehensive examination and effective, sustainable solutions that extend into the future. In their monumental work, spanning over 600 pages, Professors Jatna and Lenz offer a magnum opus that delves into these interconnected problems and crises, shedding light on the intricate relationships between regions, disciplines, and elements, both in terms of origins and potential solutions. Their presentation is exhaustive, meticulously addressing sustainability and the global context while providing invaluable insights and references for those in positions of influence. This book stands as a remarkable contribution to the field, one that demands recognition and appreciation.
