For some economic players, especially industry — Net-Zero has started to become a problem now. Although the target for achievement is still 2050, the world’s financial industry, banks and insurance have begun to withdraw their support for industries that are still polluting the environment.

On the other hand, the Net-Zero target can be a real solution so that no more of our critical land is left unplanted, so that the environment is saved, so that floods, landslides and droughts can be prevented. In my calculations, if energy SOEs want to plant trees for their Net-Zero achievement strategy, then all of our critical and very critical lands of 14 million hectares will be planted with all productive trees.

Then what about other industries, heavy industry, basic industry and even light industry and small industry which must also have a Net-Zero strategy to still get banking and insurance support?

The solution we offer uses one of the carbon capture technology options to capture the CO2 that is still being emitted out of your industry. So what is this CO2 for after being captured?

The next solution that we also offer is to use it for microalgae cultivation. We can choose the species, depending on the desired product, namely fat/oil, protein, carbohydrate or phytonutrient and pigment. From this microalgae cultivation, all the necessities of life can be produced, from fuel, food, feed and feedstocks.

So CO2 is not a problem, but is an opportunity for the basic raw material in the primary production process in plants or what is commonly known as the photosynthesis process. This is where all life processes begin, and we can maintain the continuity of this life if we can manage CO2.
