Abstract
Livestock sector is one of the sectors that has significant contribution in Greenhouse Gas Emissions (GHG) emission especially methane CH4 and Nitrous oxide N2O. Each species has specific characteristic of of the emission. This research estimates the number of GHG emitted by livestock sector by using IPCC method and the projection of its increasing for the next 10 years. The GHG emission is calculated for each gas and its CO2 equivalent. The result shows the highest emission is contributed by Kutai Kartanegara Regency 24 % and Beef Cattle 155.14 Gg CO2e or 79%. The projection shows GHG emissions increasing to 340,4 Gg CO2-e in 2030, assuming no significant mitigation effort conducted.
