Abstract

Background: The Food Estate policy or national food granary program is a food development concept that is integrated with agriculture, plantations and animal husbandry, one of which is in the area of openings in natural forests covering an area of 156,000 ha in Central Kalimantan. This program is designed to prepare national food security in order to respond to the Food and Agriculture (FAO) Report on the threat of a global food crisis due to the impact of the Covid 19 pandemic. Changes in forest cover from previously green land to agricultural land will cause loss of forest cover in the form of vegetation or trees that have ecosystem services as carbon dioxide absorbers from the air. Methods: The impact of forest conversion is analyzed by conducting spatial analysis of land cover and calculating potential carbon stocks lost, as well as providing suggestions or solutions to problems or gaps from an economic, social, and political environmental perspective. Findings: From the results of literature studies, the government must learn from the experience of food estate projects on peatlands in the past where peatlands became thin and when the dry season arrived, the land would be flammable due to lack of attention to the biophysical aspects of the soil. Conclusion: In addition, economic and social aspects involve and assist the community in carrying out food security programs and agricultural technology sophistication. Novelty/Originality of this Study: This analysis provides a unique perspective on the climate change impacts of forest conversion for food estate programs, bridging the gap between national food security policies and environmental conservation imperatives.

Abstract

Background: Motorcycle riding as a means of daily transportation in Southeast Asia, especially Jakarta, Indonesia, manifests the struggle to use the road. This struggle - associated with congestion, irregularity, and lack of control - can lead to physical harm or material loss. Studies on deviant behavior related to motorcycle use mainly discuss motorcycle gangs and traffic violations. This paper intends to explicate how the context of this struggle informs the different meanings of the deviant behavior of motorcyclists in daily traffic life. It employs concepts of innovation and ritualism, learning, harm, visuality, and secret deviance to shatter the prevailing understanding of motorcyclist traffic behavior. Methods: This study chooses T.B. Simatupang Street, one of the busiest roads in Jakarta, as a research location. A mixed method is used to examine the context of the struggle, first qualitatively by utilizing visual data collected through (a) direct video recordings on the road and (b) aerial drone video recordings. Both recordings captured images of motorcyclist behavior considered deviant and can cause harm, such as stopping illegally, clamoring while cutting lanes and other vehicles, and slipping between two automobiles. Then quantitatively, it conducts a survey to collect data on motorcyclists' experiences. Included in the survey were questions with images captured from the direct video recording footage to collect responses toward motorcyclist riding behavior. Findings: The survey findings show that responses toward images of motorcyclist behavior—concerning harm—show a lack of understanding of driving safety and traffic rules, and some consider it as just the daily routine of motorcyclists. Conclusion: Therefore, the visuality of motorcyclist traffic violation is learned through innovation (driving recklessly) or ritualism (daily habit) as a struggle that is ironically visibly secretly upheld by fellow motorcyclists. Novelty/Originality of this Study: This study offers a novel perspective by framing motorcyclists' behavior in Jakarta's traffic as a form of adaptive struggle rather than mere deviance or rule breaking. It uniquely utilizes visual criminology to argue that what is often seen as traffic violations may be better understood as contextual adaptations to urban congestion, thereby challenging prevailing interpretations of motorcyclist behavior.

Abstract

Background: Palm oil plantations and transmigration in Indonesia, implemented since the New Order era until now, aim to boost economic growth with the intended consequence of improving community welfare, particularly for transmigrants and local residents. Methods: This study employed a case study approach focusing on Mantadulu Village in East Luwu Regency, South Sulawesi. Data was collected through secondary sources, including government documents, news articles, and reviews of research results on palm oil plantation expansion and transmigration in Sulawesi. The data was analyzed descriptively, with a focus on the historical context, conflict trajectories, and socioeconomic impacts. Findings: However, this study reveals a contrary outcome; the presence of PTPN XIV in Mantadulu Village, South Sulawesi has resulted in the exclusion of the surrounding community. This, in turn, has led to the confiscation of their production factors, widening the poverty gap for both transmigrants and local communities. The expansion of palm oil plantations, coupled with the transmigration program, created a surplus labor force, potentially leading to worker exploitation and reduced wages. Conclusion: The transmigration program and palm oil plantation expansion in Mantadulu Village have largely failed to improve the welfare of transmigrants and local communities as intended. Instead, these initiatives have increased the risk of poverty through land exclusion and unfavorable farming schemes. Novelty/Originality of this Study: The novelty of this study lies in its focus on the intricate relationship between the transmigration program and palm oil plantation expansion in South Sulawesi, an area often overlooked in existing research. It uniquely highlights the socio-economic conflicts and class dynamics arising from these programs, providing a fresh perspective on the grassroots impacts and conceptual challenges underlying transmigration and agricultural policies in Indonesia.

Abstract

Background: Increasing greenhouse gasses concentration in the atmosphere is perturbing the environment to cause grievous global warming and associated consequences. Following the rule that only measurable is manageable, mensuration of greenhouse gas intensiveness of different products, bodies, and processes is going on worldwide, expressed as their carbon footprints (CF). Methods: The methodologies for carbon footprint calculations are still evolving and it is emerging as an important tool for greenhouse gas management. The purpose of this paper was to determine the CF of the Malawi University of Science and Technology (MUST) campus and identify the stressors. The greenhouse gasses (GHG) protocol separates emissions into three scopes which include scope 1 of direct emissions, scope 2 which is indirect emissions, and scope 3 of other indirect emissions. Findings: The estimation of CF from transportation measured 930670.2 kgCO2e, and from electricity measured 2824243.2 kgCO2e while from the use of charcoal fuel measured 30804 kgCO2e. Results showed that emissions generated by gen-sets and transportation produced the highest contribution of 669124.8 kgCO2e and 238991.4 kgCO2e respectively to the MUST campus in the year 2018-2019 as compared to previous years (2015-2017). Conclusion: The study strongly suggested that for the whole 5 years period the use of gen-sets in the campus was the main stressor and this was due to frequent blackouts. Second was transport and as the university grows, the demand for transportation will also increase hence more emissions from transport. Therefore the study recommends that the university should be more considerate of these carbon dioxide sources so as it is trying to meet its needs and demand from these activities, it should also consider reducing the carbon footprint of the campus. Novelty/Originality of this Study: In a pioneering effort for Malawian higher education institutions, this study quantifies the carbon footprint of the Malawi University of Science and Technology campus, paving the way for targeted greenhouse gas management strategies in academic settings.
