Lac Tamblingan à Buleleng, Bali, Indonésie. Les dommages causés à l'écosystème forestier ont causé le rétrécissement des lacs Buyan et Tamblingan qui soutiennent de nombreux villages de la régence de Bueleng, à Bali. Un chef de communauté traditionnel a déclaré que le niveau d'eau des deux lacs n'avait pas augmenté, même en saison des pluies, comme l'a cité Kompas.com le 29 juin 2021. Les deux lacs rétrécissent d'environ 100 mètres, ou équivalent à 4 mètres de baisse du niveau d'eau depuis 2000, a déclaré le rapport.

Lakes and other water resources are threatened by climate change, but Bali is aware and ready to conserve A report published on Science Daily on 23 Dec 2020 quoted a team of scientists who stated that inland lakes are threatened by climate change, but (generally) "receiving less attention." However, Bali is an island where its traditional communities and and tourism practicioners are always paying a close attention to environmental issue, and water is considered as holy. In 2019, a declaration was made by tourism industry stakeholders in the island to conserve their water resources. Bali also has a traditional, spiritual water management system (irrigation for agricultural landscape) that is a UNESCO's World Heritage. According to the 2022 report by Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), as quoted by Circle of Blue on 1 March 2022, the water cycle (worldwide) is speeding up. "Warming temperatures are causing rapid shifts between wet and dry, flood and drought. These impacts are not linear—they accelerate with more warming. Unless people adapt to rapid environmental change and greenhouse gas emissions are slowed, the risks to biodiversity, water security, food production, infrastructure stability, and health are much higher toward the end of the century, " wrote Brett Walton in the report.
