Astra Insurance Not Only Protects Vehicles

Believe that every great achievement must start with simple steps, Astra Insurance through #SimpleSteps planted 1,000 Mangrove seedlings in Berseri Astra Village (KBA) on Pramuka Island, Thousand Islands Administrative Regency on Saturday, June 15, 2024, yesterday.

In addition to involving Garda Oto car insurance customers in last weekend's activities, the special thing is that the Mangrove tree seedlings planted are the result of donations from insurance customers who purchased Garda Oto policies during the period of April 1 - May 31, 2024, where during that period, Astra Insurance conducted the #SimpleSteps for Sustainable Environment program, Buy Garda Oto Policy = Donate 1 Tree.

It is known that Mangrove trees are considered highly effective carbon absorbers because they can sequester a large amount of carbon and prevent it from entering and damaging the atmosphere layer. Therefore, by planting Mangrove seedlings, Astra Insurance hopes to achieve net zero emissions.

Besides that, Mangrove trees can also help coastal areas avoid major climate change threats such as hurricanes and erosion, which are of particular concern to the surrounding community, especially in Pramuka Island because they trigger changes in the coastline.

"Planting 1,000 Mangrove tree seedlings cannot be realized without the collaboration of customers and residents of KBA Pulau Pramuka today. We also extend warm appreciation to the customers who have attended directly and participated in the planting together with us,"
The Chief Compliance & Risk Management of Astra Insurance, Widya Adi Tjahjono, stated through his explanation on Tuesday, June 18, 2024.

To maximize efforts in preserving the environment and ecosystem, Astra Insurance also conducts beach clean-ups to address the plastic waste that pollutes coastal areas coming from the sea. The cleaning of coastal areas from plastic waste is done to protect the coastline from the increasingly concerning pollution caused by trash. According to data from the National Coordination Team for Marine Waste Management (TKN PSL), in 2022, there were recorded 398 million tons of plastic waste polluting the Indonesian sea.

Sure, the presence of the workshop yesterday aimed to create awareness and encourage the community to recycle the waste generated by each household. Due to referring to data from the Ministry of Environment and Forestry (KLHK), as one of the largest waste contributors, Indonesia's national waste pile in 2023 has reached 17.4 million tons and 33.5 percent of that total waste has not been properly managed.
