On Wednesday (22/4), Indonesia Stock Exchange (IDX) officially launched the “Aku Net-Zero Hero” campaign to coincide with Earth Day, as a strategic step to strengthen the national carbon trading ecosystem. Through this initiative, the IDX is committed to supporting an inclusive low-carbon economic transition by expanding the participant base in the Indonesia Carbon Exchange (IDXCarbon), targeting not only corporations but also individuals. This launch, accompanied by a literacy seminar, aims to encourage the public to take an active role as “emission heroes” through a simple yet measurable approach, in line with the exchange’s efforts to create a sustainable and environmentally conscious capital market.
In its implementation, the IDX collaborates with strategic partners such as Bank Mandiri and Jejakin to provide convenience for the public to calculate, reduce, and offset their emissions through an integrated digital platform. With the “retirement on behalf” mechanism at IDXCarbon, every individual can now purchase carbon credits from green projects and obtain an official certificate under their own name, recorded in the National Registry System for Climate Change Control (SRN PPI). This synergy is expected not only to increase carbon market liquidity but also to foster collective awareness regarding the importance of climate justice and tangible actions in preserving the earth for a greener future.
