Abstract

Climate change has become a real threat to sustainable living, driven by rising greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from human activities, including agriculture. This study aims to estimate GHG emissions in the agricultural sector in Lembang subdistrict, an area with high agricultural cultivation intensity, and formulate mitigation strategies through an Islamic ethical approach. The study uses a descriptive-qualitative method, focusing on GHG emissions from the use of inorganic fertilizers and soil cultivation. Estimates of agricultural land area and distribution in each village were analyzed using QGIS. The estimation calculations refer to the Tier-1 method of the 2006 IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) and the 2012 Ministry of Environment's National Greenhouse Gas Inventory Guidelines. Input data for mitigation strategies was obtained through interviews with farmers associated with the Walungan Foundation in Suntenjaya village. Based on the results of the calculation, GHG emissions in the Lembang subdistrict were estimated at 2,404.46 tons of CO2e per year, arising from the main agricultural commodities: tomatoes, cayenne pepper, and curly peppers. The highest estimated GHG emissions were from the villages of Suntenjaya, Cikidang, and Pagerwangi, which also had more extensive field/farmland than other villages. Based on these findings, a mitigation strategy was formulated by reducing fertilizer use in agriculture. Based on these findings, a mitigation strategy was formulated by reducing agricultural processes in terms of excessive urea fertilizer use, reducing intensive soil cultivation, and, from an ethical perspective, providing assistance and guidance to farmers with a spiritual and environmental awareness approach to maintaining the balance of nature.

Abstract

Pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB) remains a major public health challenge in Indonesia, with substantial geographical disparities in disease burden across regions. Understanding the spatial structure of PTB distribution is essential for designing effective and geographically targeted control strategies. This study aims to examine the spatial epidemiological patterns of PTB in Indonesia from 2000 to 2023 using a Geographic Information System (GIS) based approach. Secondary data on annually reported PTB cases at the provincial level were obtained from official national sources and analyzed using spatial autocorrelation techniques. Global Moran’s Index was applied to assess overall spatial dependence, while Local Indicators of Spatial Association (LISA) were used to identify statistically significant local clusters of PTB cases. Spatial analyses were conducted within a GIS environment to visualize national and regional distribution patterns. The results reveal a persistent, statistically significant, clustered spatial pattern of PTB throughout the study period. Global Moran’s I value consistently indicates positive spatial autocorrelation, confirming that the PTB distribution is not random. LISA analysis identifies stable High-High clusters concentrated in the densely populated provinces of Java and enduring Low-Low clusters predominantly located in Papua and parts of eastern Indonesia. These findings demonstrate pronounced regional contrasts in PTB burden over time. In conclusion, PTB transmission in Indonesia exhibits strong spatial dependence shaped by regional connectivity and structural disparities, and integrating spatial analysis into national tuberculosis control programs can support more targeted, equitable, and effective public health interventions.

Abstract

Baron Beach is one of the main coastal tourist destinations in Gunungkidul Regency, which, since its early development, has functioned as a center for tourism and local fishing activities. The high intensity of tourist visits can put pressure on the coastal environment if a sustainable management system does not balance it. This study aims to formulate a sustainable ecotourism-based coastal management strategy for Baron Beach by integrating environmental conservation, local community empowerment, environmentally friendly infrastructure development, tourist education, and monitoring and evaluation, all grounded in the area's carrying capacity. The research methods included field observations, structured interviews with managers and local communities, and the distribution of questionnaires to tourists. Environmental quality analysis was conducted by measuring Total Suspended Solids (TSS), pH, Dissolved Oxygen (DO), and Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) in accordance with APHA (2023) standards. Management strategies were formulated using SWOT analysis and prioritized using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP). The results of the study indicate that the water quality of Baron Beach still meets the quality standards for pH, DO, and BOD, but the TSS value is very high and has the potential to degrade the coastal ecosystem. The involvement of the local community in tourism activities is relatively high, but there is still a need to increase capacity and strengthen environmental education. The SWOT–AHP analysis results indicate that the Strengths–Opportunities (S–O) strategy is a top priority in the management of Baron Beach. This study emphasizes the importance of implementing ecotourism-based coastal management supported by a sustainable monitoring and evaluation system to maintain a balance between environmental conservation and community welfare.
