        "content": "<p>The Provincial Government of DKI Jakarta stated that the\nenergy-saving and carbon emission reduction action for one hour, in\ncommemoration of World Environment Day 2026 on Saturday (13\/6),\nsucceeded in lowering carbon emissions by 60.14 tonnes of CO2e.<\/p>\n<p>Head of the DKI Jakarta Environmental Agency Dudi Gardesi said in\nJakarta on Sunday that the 60-minute blackout was not merely a symbol,\nbut also a reminder that simple steps taken together can have a real\nimpact on the environment. From small habits, we can create big changes\nfor a healthier and more sustainable Jakarta.<\/p>\n<p>Dudi said the action aimed to promote a culture of energy saving\nwhile inviting the public to participate in efforts to reduce greenhouse\ngas emissions. The activity is part of the DKI Jakarta Provincial\nGovernment\u2019s efforts to support climate change control and low-carbon\ndevelopment.<\/p>\n<p>The implementation of the activity refers to Governor\u2019s Instruction\nNumber 14 of 2021 concerning the Implementation of Blackouts for Energy\nSaving and Carbon Emission Reduction, which is carried out periodically\nin Jakarta.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, the emission reduction achievement shows that\nbehavioural changes in energy use can produce measurable impacts if\ncarried out consistently and involve many parties. This success was born\nfrom the collaboration of various parties, from building managers,\nbusiness actors, communities, to residents who participated in turning\noff lights and unused electronic devices during the action.<\/p>\n<p>When millions of residents take the same small steps consistently,\nthe impact will be enormous for Jakarta\u2019s environmental quality.\nProtecting the earth and providing cleaner air is not only the\ngovernment\u2019s task, but a joint movement of the entire community.<\/p>\n<p>The blackout action was carried out on Saturday (13\/6) at a number of\nstrategic points and icons of Jakarta, including the National Monument\n(Monas), the Arjuna Wiwaha Statue, the Welcome Statue at the Hotel\nIndonesia Roundabout (HI), the Pemuda Statue, the General Sudirman\nStatue, and the DKI Jakarta City Hall area.<\/p>",
