Spatial distribution of greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture sector in Indonesia based on inter-governmental panel on climate change methodology using geographic information system and internet technologies

Abstract

Global climate change has become worldwide issues because of the increasing greenhouse gases (GHGs) resulted from human activities, mostly fossil fuel use, land-use change and agriculture. Agriculture activities are the main sources of methane emissions; particularly rice cultivation. In addition to methane, this sector emits other GHGs such as: nitrous oxide, nitrogen oxide, and carbon monoxide.
