Estimation of CO2 Emissions from Meat Consumption in Indonesia

Authors : Supriyanto

Abstract: Increasing of green house gases cause climate change and it goes up world temperature 2°C. CO2 emissions are one of GHG and it is resulted by anthropogenic. Their source can be derived by primary, secondary and tertiary sources. There is no study about relationship between meat consumption as tertiary source and CO2 emissions in Indonesia. This study analyzed how meat consumption produces CO2 emissions in Indonesia and its province. The calculation used linier regression created from 169 countries in the world. The result of study shows that the average annual of meat consumption is 0.32 kg per capita produce 510 kg CO2 emissions from 2007-2014. Meanwhile in 2015 Kalimantan Tengah (Central Borneo) and Riau become two big provinces which produce CO2 emission come from meat consumption both urban and rural.
