How can industry and nature thrive together? Join Barito
Pacific Group for an inspiring talk show that explores
real-world biodiversity conservation practices across the
Group’s businesses, including Barito Renewables and Chandra
Asri Pacific.
This special session will also mark the soft launching of the
Barito Renewables ‘Dances of Life Book’, documenting
conservation initiatives around Star Energy Geothermal Salak
and showcasing how industrial operations can coexist with rich
ecosystems.
Reports
【Reflection】
This programme highlighted the initiatives of the Barito
Pasifik Group and its affiliated organisations in building a
sustainable society in harmony with nature. While operating
across energy, petrochemicals, renewable energy, and real
estate, the group has actively promoted a circular economy,
plastic recycling, and the development of waste management
technologies.
Notably, the “Green Guardians” programme by the NGO Yayasan
Bakti Barito has provided climate change and waste management
education in 121 schools, reaching approximately 34,000
students and 11,000 teachers, thereby offering numerous
opportunities to raise environmental awareness.
In addition, the Javan leopard conservation survey, supported
by Star Energi Geothermal, established 39 monitoring stations
within a national park, confirming the species’ presence at
97.5% of locations.
Furthermore, the use of plastic-incorporated asphalt has
improved road durability by around 40%, achieving both waste
reduction and the enhancement of regional infrastructure.
Through lectures and talk shows, participants gained a clear
understanding of how companies, governments, local
communities, and NGOs can collaborate to address
sustainability challenges, and experienced firsthand how
industrial activity and nature conservation can coexist
successfully.
【Post EXPO Initiatives】
Following the Expo, the Barito Pasifik Group released the book
Dance of Life, summarising its environmental, social, and
governance (ESG) initiatives and further strengthening public
outreach and transparency.
The practical application of pyrolysis for plastic waste and
the development of plastic-mixed asphalt have attracted
attention as model cases that simultaneously enhance regional
economic development and reduce environmental impact.
Moving forward, plans are underway to expand these
technologies to a wider scope. Yayasan Bakti Barito continues
to implement climate education and waste management programmes
in schools, aiming to broaden participation and develop
next-generation education programmes, thereby fostering
environmental awareness among a greater number of students and
teachers. In addition, the Javan leopard conservation survey
is being strengthened through expanded habitat protection and
ongoing monitoring, with the goal of advancing scientifically
based conservation plans. Furthermore, the collaborative
framework among companies, local communities, government
bodies, and NGOs is being expanded, extending these efforts to
new regions and projects.
These future-oriented initiatives serve as a pioneering model
demonstrating the coexistence of industry and nature, sharing
knowledge domestically and internationally, and further
raising expectations for the realisation of a sustainable
society.
