Study of Air Pollution CO2 in Surakarta City (Case Study at Adi Soemarmo Street, Slamet Riyadi Street and DR . Radjiman Street)

Research this was done in the city of Surakarta with the title : "Pollution Studies Air Carbon Dioxide (CO2) in the city of Surakarta (Case Study in the street of Adi Soemarmo, in the street of Slamet Riyadi and in the street of Dr. Radjiman). This research is based on a growing number of motor vehicles in the city of Surakarta, feared to raise the concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) is continuously. The purpose of this research is : 1. To analyze the distribution of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) in the area of research, 2. To analyze the great of the relationship between the concentration of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) with air temperature, wind speed and the density of the motor vehicle in the area of research, 3. To compare the concentration of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) in the streets of the main road research area. The research method used in this research is a method of observation (survey) by doing measurement, observation, records and analysis. The data is collected and used in this research is the primary data obtained with the method of observation (survey) field. The source of secondary data obtained from publication Badan Pusat Statistik Kota Surakarta, Kantor Bersama Samsat and UP3AD Kota Surakarta, and Dinas Perhubungan Kota Surakarta. Data Analysis in graphics, statistics and descriptive. The results of the study showed that the distribution of the concentration of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) spatially in three main road city of Surakarta shows the tendency of the line that increased at a crossroads with the density of the motor vehicle high. The temperature correlation air and motor vehicle against Carbon Dioxide (CO2) 0,889 respectively, with the degree of trust 95% on the streets Slamet Riyadi in the night of the day. The value shows the very strong relationship and direction with significant value column (SIG) each 0,018. The speed correlation wind against Carbon Dioxide (CO2) -0,982, with the degree of trust 99% on the street of Adi Soemarmo at night. The value shows the very strong relationship, but inversely with significant value column (SIG) 0,003. The concentration Carbon Dioxide (CO2) highest from the three roads were in the streets Slamet Riyadi with the average amount of the concentration of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) on the morning of 604 ppm and on the night of 618 ppm. Key Words : air pollution, concentration, carbon dioxid

Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Emissions Due to Motor Vehicle Movements in Pekanbaru City, Indonesia

Land use has a very close relationship with transportation. Transportation is formed as a result of the interaction between land use and its support system. Good land use supported by good infrastructure will result in good movement as well. Accessibility is one of the supporting factors for good interaction between transportation and land use—the better the land use conditions in an area, the greater the movement in that area. However, the interaction between land use and transportation can cause one of the problems: the increase in carbon dioxide emissions due to the more significant movement of motorized vehicles. Motor vehicles are the most significant contributor to carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in the world. The further the route traveled by motorized vehicles, the more carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions will increase. This study aims to analyze the average total emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) resulting from transportation activities in Pekanbaru City into two parts, namely: (1) Based on Travel Time (2) Based on the type of vehicle. Vehicle Kilometers of Travel (VKT) and Emission Factors are the primary data in calculating Carbon Dioxide (CO2) Emissions. The research area consists of 12 zones involving 1,342 households in Pekanbaru City. Based on travel time, 52% of community motorized vehicle movement activities are carried out in the morning. Private cars contribute 65% of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions in Pekanbaru City based on the type of vehicle. This study found that a high number of motorized vehicles cannot be used as a benchmark that the resulting emissions will also be high. However, the emission of carbon dioxide (CO2) depends on the fuel consumption of each vehicle. The higher the fuel consumption, the higher the amount of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions released by motorized vehicles

Air Quality Monitoring System And Air Neutralizer In Hotel Rooms With Notification Via Telegram

Indonesia is rich in natural beauty, and in various regions it presents many tourist objects that attract visitors from various regions and foreign countries. Hotels, as a form of public accommodation, are extremely beneficial to tourists who are traveling by providing lodging services in the form of hotel rooms. The article aims to design a carbon dioxide (CO2) gas detector because CO2 gas is included in air quality and uses the MQ 135 sensor to detect gas in order to provide comfort to hotel visitors. carbon dioxide (CO2), DC fans as air neutralizers in hotel rooms, and with notifications via telegram to find out the levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) gas in hotel rooms

The impact of climate change on agriculture

It is now virtually certain that Australia and the world will experience significant climate change over the next century, as a result of human-caused emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other greenhouse gases.climate change, agriculture

Securing Rights, Combating Climate Change: How Strengthening Community Forest Rights Mitigates Climate Change

This report analyzes the growing body of evidence linking community forest rights with healthier forests and lower carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions from deforestation and forest degradation.This report makes a strong case for strengthening the rights of indigenous and local communities over their forests as a policy tool for mitigating climate change

Greenhouse gas emissions from croplands of China

China possesses cropland of 1.33 million km 2. Cultivation of the cropland not only altered the biogeochemical cycles of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) in the agroecosystems but also affected global climate. The impacts of agroecosystems on global climate attribute to emissions of three greenhouse gases, namely carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O)

The case for direct methods to address CO2 emissions and other negative environmental externalities

Existing policies to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) largely have been structured to subsidize alternative energy technologies. Yet these policies are likely not to be as useful as ones that target CO2 emissions directly, such as an emissions tax or a "cap and trade" program.Energy policy ; Environmental policy

Impact of energy on the environment the case of Japan

The purpose of this paper is to examine how energy resources affect Ja-pan’s environment, using data over a period from 2000 to 2014. Today, prevention of environmental pollution and conservation of environment have a dimension exceeding national borders. The risks that result from us-ing of fossil fuels increasingly (petroleum, coal, and gas) must be decreased. To decrease such risks, besides to increasing of energy productivity, energy resources that emit less greenhouse gases in the atmosphere (like Carbon-dioxide (CO2)) must be preferred. To examine the impact of energy on the Japan’s environment, a linear function was used to develop a model us-ing carbon dioxide (CO2) emission and total energy consumption of Japan. CO2 is the dependent variable and energy consumption as the independent variable. A regression analysis was run on the model to know the relationship between these variables. The empirical results showed a positive relationship between CO2 and energy consumption. The result also showed Japan is highly reliable on non-renewable energy resources such as fossil fuels for its energy needs and these non-renewable energy resources have greater impact on the environment
