Now, the side effects are impossible to ignore.That’s what we call the climate crisis. So, what exactly is the climate crisis? In […]

When we talk about energy in Indonesia, the truth is, we’re incredibly rich. The real issue isn’t whether we have energy resources or not, but which ones we choose to use, and who they’re used for. Our daily lives, from rushing to catch the KRL in the morning to scrolling TikTok before bed, are powered […]

Every year, we rehearse the same empty celebration of Conference of Parties (COP). Member state of United Nation Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) gathered every year to “keep the earth’s temperature rise below 1.5oC” through global climate commitments. The real question is, has this grand annual agenda led to any real change? The bitter […]
