APAKAH PERUBAHAN IKLIM? Iklim bumi sentiasa berubah sepanjang sejarah evolusi bumi. Perubahan yang perlahan dan beransur-ansur ini dipengaruhi oleh pelbagai faktor. Antaranya ialah kitaran orbit bumi atau ‘Kitaran Melankovich’ dan pergerakan plat tektonik. Proses proses ini menjadikan bumi ini satu planet mampu dihuni oleh pelbagai spesies dan diversiti. Perubahan iklim semula jadi juga telah membentuk perjalanan evolusi dan migrasi hominin (manusia awal seperti Homo Erectus dan juga manusia moden Homo Sapiens ) Walau bagaimanapun, pertumbuhan manusia dan perindustrian yang pesat telah mengubah proses semulajadi perubahan iklim dengan kadar kelajuan yang amat berbahaya. Emisi karbon dioksida (CO2), sejenis gas rumah hijau telah terbebas ke atmosfera pada kadar berbahaya yang memanaskan Bumi dengan ketara. Gaya hidup manusia yang tidak mampan dalam sistem ekonomi berat sebelah yang mementingkan keuntungan korporasi korporasi gergasi, telah menyebabkan konsentrasi CO2 dalam atmosfera meningkat sebanyak 40% sejak revolusi perindustrian dan dijangka bertambah buruk dalam beberapa dekad akan datang. Beberapa minggu lepas, konsentrasi CO2 di atmosfera telah melebihi 400 ppm, satu situasi yang tidak pernah di lihat dalam sejarah manusia moden. IMPAK KEPADA MALAYSIA Kenaikan suhu global! Kenaikan suhu 1.5 °C dan ke atas akan membawa kepada pemanasan laut, pencairan glasier, kenaikan paras laut dan iklim yang melampau dan tidak menentu. Di Malaysia, kesan perubahan iklim yang mula dirasai adalah haba melampau dalam bentuk gelombang panas. Ini meningkatkan risiko kesihatan yang berkait dengan haba, polusi dan kematian. Kepanasan berterusan bakal menyaksikan kemusnahan biodiversity seperti kematian terumbu karang yang merupakan ‘keystone’ habitat untuk hidupan marin, yang merupakan sumber makanan rakyat. Di darat, kehilangan hutan dara, modifikasi sistem penggunaan tanah dan urbanisasi yang tidak mampan juga menaikkan lagi suhu lokal seperti yang dilihat di Borneo yang kehilangan 50% dari hutan daranya. Selain itu, pencairan glasier dan litupan ais adalah penyumbang utama kepada kenaikan paras laut, menyebabkan masyarakat di kawasan pesisiran laut berisiko dinaiki air. Kehilangan penempatan manusia dalam kawasan ini bukan sahaja akan membawa kepada kadar penghijrahan bandar yang lebih tinggi, tetapi ia juga akan meluaskan jurang sosio ekonomi bagi warga yang hidup dalam garis kemiskinan sama ada komuniti marginal, wanita atau kanak-kanak. Golongan terpinggir ini adalah golongan yang paling terdedah kepada perubahan iklim, namun paling kurang bersedia untuk menghadapi risiko perubahan iklim. Musim kering yang berpanjangan juga boleh mengkompromi keselamatan makanan negara akibat tanaman makanan yang musnah disebabkan kepanasan extrem dan masalah irigasi. Sekiranya isu ini terus diambil ringan, bukan sahaja petani mengalami kehilangan mata pencarian, malah produktiviti ekonomi negara juga akan terjejas.

Introduction In 2022, Klima Action Malaysia (KAMY) with the support of the European Climate Foundation (ECF), launched Lensa Iklim, a climate journalism and energy journalism program in Peninsula Malaysia that aims to upskill and empower Malaysian journalists and mainstream news media to improve climate change and energy transition reporting. The program now is supported by Tara Climate Foundation. The gaps & challenges of Climate Journalism in Peninsula Malaysia We conducted a research to investigate this phenomenon. We published a “Climate-Energy Transition Media Reporting in Peninsular Malaysia.” This report runs a data analysis on the climate and energy transition reporting of the news media in Peninsula Malaysia, with supporting analysis of the interviews from journalists and editors of various news media. Access our microsite here! How Lensa Iklim aims to bridge the gap Lensa Iklim was formed to empower journalists in Peninsula Malaysia in climate crisis and energy transition reporting. The long-term aim is to strengthen climate communication in Malaysia, under the Right to Information objective, thus increasing the public’s climate literacy. The program also has a short-term goal to increase the capacity of journalists, in the news media and newsroom sector, in Peninsular Malaysia on climate crises specific to the energy sector and “Just Transition”.

COVID-19 RESPOND Misi bantu oa #MisiBantuOA is a disaster response intervention run by youth groups; Shaq Koyok, Gerimis Project, KUASA, Diri Bumi Ecological Practice and KAMY specifically to coordinate and centralise the efforts for immediate relief to Orang Asli communities in Peninsular Malaysia Our targets are the Orang Asli communities located in the interiors and communities living by the fringes of degraded forests - all now facing a severe economic and health crisis, as well shortage of supplies due to CMO amid COVID19. Communities facing decades of environmental injustice and human rights violations will be disproportionately affected by COVID-19 and other future shocks including climate impacts. The loss of these crucial communities will not only cost us the fight for forest protection for climate mitigation & adaptation. Often understated, ethnobotany and irreplaceable indigenous knowledge aids in our understanding of the forest health and composition among many others— including our relationship with the earth. Based on the principles of #ClimateJustice , KAMY through #MisiBantuOA will refocus on how to increase Orang Asli community resilience. Throughout the 1st phase of #MisiBantuOA , we collected a lot of information and identified gaps in food sufficiency within the indigenous community. We also realized that women, especially young women with the child are disproportionately affected by the pandemic. Covid19 coupled with forest degradation and systematic genocide of the indigenous culture in peninsular Malaysia have eroded the food sovereignty of indigenous communities. PROTECT OUR FUTURE Seek for a GREEN and JUST transition to our post COVID-19 future! Read #MisiBantuOA public document here bit.ly/MB-OA We are now planning the 2nd phase : post COVID-19 recovery, pilot project in Pos Lanai villages, Pahang Email us at nadiah@klimaactionmalaysia.org to contribute or inquire PROJECT PHASES Phase 1 | Misi Bantu OA Disaster respond during Covid19 by sending aid to Orang Asli in the peninsula of Malaysia. We send supplies, food, Cov19 sanitary kits, dignity kits for young women, children, and OKU Co-building the Orang Asli open repository with our partners in the OA collective and Jabatan Kemajuan Orang Asli Malaysia (JAKOA) to build a platform of resources and strategy sharing among grassroots to increase the indigenous community resilience during Covid19. #MisiBantuOA urges for transparent communication, information and resource sharing between government agencies and CSOs/NGOs during a crisis. Phase 2 | Kebun Mandiri OA Establishing cash crop and food garden (2 acres) in indigenous Semai's Pos Lanai villages in the interior of Pahang using the funds from #MisiBantuOA and other external funds. We call this project Kebun Mandiri OA Pos Lanai. Phase I: Increase food sufficiency of the community during the pandemic Phase II: Leadership and organizational capacity building, mainstreaming gender balanced mechanism Phase III: food security, sustainbility, cultural rights, visibility and marketing. Phase 3 | CAK Art Project In tandem with Kebun Mandiri OA, we are setting up CAK. CAK means ‘eat’ in the Semai and Temiar language. A simple word that carries an important and deeper meaning of survival, culture, and relationship to the land. What do we eat when we eat? What are the origins of our food? During MCO and the global lockdown, many countries including ours experienced a disruption in the food supply chain (rice, vegetables, poultry, etc.). CAK aims to introduce Kebun Mandiri OA initiative to the public through an exhibition with various programming where the public can immerse and interact with engaging information, discourses, and key community members. Some key points are how climate change affects crop production and the loss of heirloom seeds. The urgency of protecting these seeds and native, edible plants that can become our food bank during a food crisis or when we are cut off from the global supply chain. We collect data and share resources on several projects. MisiBantuOA is also a part of a larger collective of NGOs and CSOs working to empower the Orang Asli communities in Malaysia.
