The government of Indonesia has launched environmental policies to address the

risks of climate change at the national to local levels and involves all elements of

development: economy and business, education, environment and forestry, and

transportation. In fact, behavioral change is seen as unsustainable, particularly

in people’s everyday lives. As this problem emerges, Indonesian young people

through youth-led environmental organizations hold environmental activities to

alternatively introduce and educate communities and schools to recognize and

identity climate change impacts. The author then presents two successful youth

organizations: Greenpeace Youth Indonesia (GYI) and the Indonesian Students

Climate Forum (ICSF). GYI’s actions are more stirred with Greenpeace’s ideology,

which focuses on direct campaigns, protest, and young activist mobilization, while

ICSF’s repertoires for mitigating climate changes are more community schools-based

educational outreach. Although both of them are distinct in nature, their works have

been transformative and applicable.
