Abstract

In recent years, climate change has become one of the most popular issues in the world. There are many evidences that show the fact of existence of climate change. Indonesian forest sector has faced a great risk of climate change. Many literatures referred the main risk of Indonesian forest sector. They are increased mean sea level, increased temperature, biodiversity threat, and increased hazardous conditions such as landslide and forest fire. Therefore, climate change adaptation’s strategies have to be done as soon as possible. In this chapter, there are many recommendations strategies of climate change adaptations with possible adaptation strategies in short, medium, and long term. Those strategies are supported by Indonesian regulations and laws. Nevertheless, in order to ensure the implementation synergy of all acts and regulations, there are some gaps that must be overcome to attain the successful implementation of mainstreaming climate change adaptation of forestry sector. Thus, for improving the resilience and adaptability of forest ecosystems to climate change in forestry sector, the Ministry of Forestry has established six priority policies (2011–2015), namely forest area establishment, forest rehabilitation and increasing watershed carrying capacity, forest protection and forest fire control, biodiversity conservation, revitalization of forest and forestry industry, and community empowerment.
