Environmental Resilience: 1,000 Trees to Help Combat Drought and Climate Change in Gunungkidul

MUHAMMADIYAH.OR.ID, YOGYAKARTA – The Muhammadiyah Council for Environmental Preservation, in collaboration with the ‘Aisyiyah Council for Environmental Preservation and Disaster Management, and Universitas Muhammadiyah Yogyakarta (UMY), launched a tree-planting initiative on Saturday, February 22. The planting of 1,000 trees aims to address climate change and droughts, to improve water retention, and strengthen local ecosystems.

A Step toward Environmental Resilience

Gunungkidul is known for its dry climate and limestone-rich soil, which makes water conservation a challenge. Frequent droughts remain a major issue for the community, and this reforestation effort aims to increase green cover, enhance groundwater absorption, and reduce the effects of climate change.

Secretary of the Muhammadiyah Council for Environmental Preservation Djihadul Mubarak emphasized the importance of taking real action to protect the environment, especially as Ramadan approaches. 

“Planting trees is a way of caring for nature and the future. With this 1,000-tree program, we are not only addressing drought but also building a stronger ecosystem,” said Djihadul.

The project, led by the Forest Farmer Group of Sedyo Makmur, is expected to become a sustainable program, serving as a model for sustainable environmental conservation that benefits both nature and local livelihoods. Djihad encouraged Muhammadiyah members, students, and the wider community to take an active role in protecting the environment.

“Caring for the environment is not just the responsibility of the government or specific organizations. It is a shared responsibility. Simple actions such as planting trees, saving water, and reducing waste can create real change if we all contribute,” explained Djihadul.

Sustaining the Green Movement

The tree-planting initiative brought together various stakeholders and is seen as a step toward broader environmental efforts. With strong community participation, it is expected to have a lasting impact, not only on forest preservation but also on long-term climate adaptation.

Dr. Gatot Supangkat, Chairperson of the UMY Community Service Office, expressed his hopes for the initiative, emphasizing the need for continued efforts beyond this event.

“Actions like this should become a habit. Planting 1,000 trees is just the beginning. We should keep working to ensure our planet remains green and sustainable. Ramadan is a time for reflection and self-improvement, so let’s start caring for our environment,” expressed Gatot.
