Abstract

Indonesia’s target is to reduce GHG emissions to between 26-41% (0.767-1.244) Gton CO2e from base year 2010 to target year 2020. Kupang is one of the cities targeted to achieve this. This research begins by introducing current solid waste management, the development of a Kupang input output (IO) table, introducing pollutant sectors and count amount of CO2e caused by economic activity indicated in the IO table. The results are compared with global warming potential (GWP) for a ten and a hundred year period respectively which show 0.073 Giga Ton (GTon) CO2e or 9.479% and 0.069 GTon CO2e or about 9% emitted by economic activity without being treated properly. As a tool for the Kupang government, we outline a framework for future implementation as the best solution to integrate a number of natural resources and to treat wastes (in the form of CO2, CH4, N2O, NOx, SOx, COD, BOD) before emitted into the environment. This research is the first study that constructs an IO table at a municipal level and counts the amou
