Abstract

Mangrove Ecotourism in Tanjung Batu is one of the unique tourist attractions on Lombok Island, featuring a scenic 11-hectare mangrove area with dense vegetation coverage. The site is equipped with several facilities, including a 417-meter wooden bridge, several gazebos, selfie spots, a homestay, and a café. The ecotourism management is handled by the Tourism Awareness Group (Pokdarwis) of Sekotong Tengah Village. This destination is quite popular, with no fewer than 300 tourists visiting each month. However, this area is prone to climate-related disaster risks such as tidal floods, strong winds, high waves, floods, and droughts. Additionally, the ecotourism management has mainly focused on physical aspects and lacks sufficient managerial skills for implementing a sustainable governance system. The proposed solution is to strengthen the Pokdarwis management to improve ecotourism governance, optimizing its potential to deliver greater social, economic, and environmental value while contributing to climate change adaptation and mitigation efforts. The conclusion from the community service activity is that to address these challenges, the community is committed to preserving the mangrove ecosystem, preventing disturbances from both internal and external factors, and managing ecotourism in a way that benefits the surrounding community by reducing climate-related disaster risks. Priority activities include mangrove rehabilitation and enrichment, beach cleanup, monthly management meetings, semi-annual evaluations, and promptly developing plans to strengthen the fishermen's economy through involvement in marine tourism packages

Abstract

Carbon dioxide (CO2) contributes significantly to global warming, leading to climate change that impacts human life. To mitigate emissions, Indonesia has committed to reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions by 29% independently and 41% with international support by 2030, as outlined in its Nationally Determined Contribution (NDC). One of the strategies implemented is the Indonesia’s Forestry and Other Land Uses (FoLU) Net Sink 2030 program, prioritizing the forestry and land-use sectors. This study evaluates the effectiveness of agroforestry-based watershed rehabilitation activities in the area managed by Forest Famers Group (KTH) Hijau Makmur, Gelangsar Village, West Lombok Regency. The results show a high plant density level (>400–600 plants/ha), dominated by high-economic-value multipurpose tree species (MPTS) such as durian, mangosteen, avocado, and stink bean. The observed plants are categorized as seedlings and saplings (1–3 years old, height >1.5 meters, trunk diameter <10 cm). As the plants mature, their stem volume and canopy area are expected to enhance carbon sequestration through stems, roots, litter, and necromass. These findings indicate that agroforestry practices not only provide economic benefits but also support climate change mitigation by increasing carbon storage potential.
