Pendekatan mitigasi dan adaptasi perubahan iklim melalui reklamasi lahan dan konservasi air

Climate change is a condition of temperature change and rainfall distribution. Extreme climate events or anomalies such as very high rainfall intensity in short time cause floods and landslides. There is no rain in a long time that will cause drought. Flood and landslide disasters are a form of hydrological disaster in this study. The approach to mitigation and adaptation to climate change focused on how to prevent the occurrence of hydrological disasters, namely land reclamation and water conservation. The method of this research was descriptive research. Descriptive research methods aimed at describing, explaining, and validating the phenomena which became the object of this research. From the recapitulation results of the Indonesian Central Statistics Agency, the temperature of the last 25 years has increased dramatically to reach around 7.5oC. While rainfall figures have also experienced significant fluctuations. The ups and downs are not easily predicted, which will have an impact on human activities in daily life. To anticipate the climate change in Indonesia, two policy approaches are used to develop development patterns, namely mitigation and adaptation. In the concept of a mitigation approach based on research results, intermittent irrigation has proven to be effective. The concept of adaptation approach about the development of the database system expected that the primary foundation for the government and the community was the early warning system for disasters. Principally, the ways of handling climate change mitigation and adaptation through land reclamation and water conservation are quite extensive and varied. The latest in the implementation is the reclamation of ex-mining land, the development of agroforestry systems, and rainwater harvesting systems.
