Kapolda Riau: Penanganan Karhutla Tak Henti di Pemadaman, Harus Ada Restorasi
Kapolda Riau Irjen Pol Herry Heryawan menekankan penanganan karhutla tidak boleh hanya berhenti pada pemadaman, melainkan harus dilanjutkan dengan upaya restorasi lingkungan dan perubahan mindset masyarakat, termasuk rencana penanaman satu juta pohon pada Oktober 2026. Hingga kini Polda Riau telah menangani 47 kasus karhutla dengan 51 tersangka dan total 3.066 hectares lahan terbakar, disertai penegakan hukum untuk efek jera. Penanganan dilakukan secara kolaboratif lintas instansi dan masyarakat melalui mitigasi sejak ancaman El Nino terdeteksi, diperkuat sistem peringatan dini seperti Lancang Kuning, SiPongi, Sipakar, dan Green Policing Presisi.
