The City

Carbon dioxide, a major greenhouse gas has become an indicator in global warming and climate change. Meanwhile, cities are a medium whereby the source of carbon dioxide is released due to the urbanization and transportation sector. This situation leads to unpredictable impact to the environmental, social and economic condition of the city. Kuala Lumpur is a capital city that experiences rapid growth and was chosen for input-output analysis while Bukit Bintang road and Tunku Abdul Rahman road were chosen for ambient air monitoring due to traffic congestion problems in the city centre. The ambient air quality monitoring was measured on Saturday, Sunday and Monday for 8 hours. The sampling started at 7.00 a.m until 3.00 p.m. with a 5-minute log interval. The study found that carbon dioxide emission from both roads in Kuala Lumpur contributed to 376 ppm of carbon dioxide showing that transportation was a massive source of greenhouse gas emission in the city. Meanwhile, the input-output analysis in Kuala Lumpur showed a significant increase between 2010 and 2016 where electricity consumption, food consumption input, water consumption, gas emission and wastewater output rise due to urbanization and increasing population in the city. In contrast, the enforcement of mandatory waste management by the government has resulted in the decrease of solid waste output in Kuala Lumpur. The greenhouse gas released output in terms of Global Warming Potential from the input-output analysis was 5.88 MMtCO2eq. The study showed that the impact of urbanisation such as ambient air pollution is closely related to energy consumption and greenhouse gas emission.

Linkage Effects

Preventing global warming caused by increased CO2 emissions is a major global problem. It is necessary to find and cultivate an efficient industry with a small amount of CO2 emissions and a great impact on the national economy. This article used input–output analysis to quantify the linkage effects on the Korean economy by dividing the Korean industries into 36 categories, according to the OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development) industrial classification criteria. In addition, the total amount of carbon dioxide emitted during the year was described by its criteria to compare how much of one industry emits carbon dioxide. The analysis shows that Korea still has an economic structure centered on traditional manufacturing and the characteristics of these industries include CO2 emissions. According to the result, in the construction industry, the carbon dioxide emissions are considerably high, but the linkage effects of the industry is small. By quantitatively analyzing the impact of an industry on the economy and carbon dioxide emissions generated in the production process, this study aimed to identify Korea’s eco-friendly and highly related industries with other industries and objectively present sustainable development.

Planning Models

Input -output analysis is being widely used in developing countries for planning purposes. For a given level of final demand, input-output analysis allows us to project the required level of gross output to ensure consistency of plan. These projections are made on the assumption that the existing production structure is optimal and it implies that an increase in demand will be met through the expansion of domestic output even when it can be satisfied through an increase in imports. On the other hand, according to the semi-input-output method, we do not have to increase the output of international sectors in order to meet the increase in demand because the level and composition of these activities should be determined by comparative- cost considerations. These are the only national sectors in which output must increase in order to avoid shortage. The semi-input -output method has been such a useful and important contribution, yet, regrettably, its influence on the planning models had been rather limited.
