DEVELOPMENT OF LOW CARBON SOCIETY SCENARIOS CONSIDERING ENERGY AND AGRICULTURE, FORESTRY AND LANDUSE IN INDONESIA

Abstract

 Among Southeast Asian countries in which population and economic growth is expected, Indonesia is considered especially important in terms of mitigation of global warming because of its population size, wide forestland, and high agriculture production. For such a country where population and economy are growing, increase of food and energy demand is expected, and GHG emission from AFOLU (Agriculture, Forestry and Other Land use) sector has a significant share, we propose an integrated approach for low-carbon society scenario. The methodology was applied in Indonesia and one BaU (business as usual) scenario and three CM (countermeasure) scenarios were developed, and showed an example to consider net effect of biofuel.
