Abstract. Livestock waste is one of the contributors to greenhouse gas emissions, therefore it needs proper handling so that the impact on the environment can be minimized. Therefore, socialization and education on waste handling is carried out in an effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Socialization to farmer is done online using whatsapp and zoom meetings platform. Partner are farmers from Cileles and Cilayung Villages, Jatinangor Sumedang District. Waste treatment extension activities as an effort to reduce greenhouse gas emissions are carried out by creating audio visuals in the form of videos and e-flyers uploaded to the media youtube and whatsapp partner groups. In general, farmers understand that the waste generated from their livestock activities must be managed properly, but they do not understand that the impact of improper management will result in greenhouse gas emissions. After extension activities was carried out, there was an increase in farmers' knowledge, both on the potential of livestock waste is one of as a greenhouse gases contributors and good waste processing techniques.Keywords: animal waste, organic fertilizer, greenhouse gasAbstrak. Limbah peternakan memberi kontribusi yang cukup besar terhadap peningkatan emisi gas rumah kaca, diperlukan penanganan yang tepat sehingga dampak terhadap lingkungan dapat diminimalkan. Oleh karena itu, dilakukan sosialisasi dan edukasi penanganan limbah ternak sebagai upaya mengurangi emisi gas rumah kaca. Mitra merupakan peternak yang berasal dari Desa Cileles dan Desa Cilayung Kecamatan Jatinangor Sumedang. Kegiatan penyuluhan pengolahan limbah sebagai upaya mengurangi emisi gas rumah kaca dilakukan dengan membuat audio visual berupa video dan e-flyer yang diunggah ke media youtube dan whatsapp grup mitra. Metode yang digunakan adalah penyuluhan secara daring menggunakan media zoom meeting. Secara umum peternak mengerti bahwa limbah yang ditimbulkan dari kegiatan usahanya harus dikelola dengan baik, namun mereka tidak memahami bahwa dampak pengelolaan yang tidak tepat akan mengakibatkan emisi gas rumah kaca. Setelah dilakukan penyuluhan, terdapat peningkatan pengetahuan peternak baik potensi limbah ternak sebagai kontributor gas rumah kaca maupun teknik pengolahan limbah yang baik.Kata Kunci: limbah ternak, pupuk organik, gas rumah kaca

Abstract This paper investigates the impact of aerosol forcing uncertainty on the robustness of estimates of the twentieth-century warming attributable to anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. Attribution analyses on three coupled climate models with very different sensitivities and aerosol forcing are carried out. The Third Hadley Centre Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere GCM (HadCM3), Parallel Climate Model (PCM), and GFDL R30 models all provide good simulations of twentieth-century global mean temperature changes when they include both anthropogenic and natural forcings. Such good agreement could result from a fortuitous cancellation of errors, for example, by balancing too much (or too little) greenhouse warming by too much (or too little) aerosol cooling. Despite a very large uncertainty for estimates of the possible range of sulfate aerosol forcing obtained from measurement campaigns, results show that the spatial and temporal nature of observed twentieth-century temperature change constrains the component of past warming attributable to anthropogenic greenhouse gases to be significantly greater (at the 5% level) than the observed warming over the twentieth century. The cooling effects of aerosols are detected in all three models. Both spatial and temporal aspects of observed temperature change are responsible for constraining the relative roles of greenhouse warming and sulfate cooling over the twentieth century. This is because there are distinctive temporal structures in differential warming rates between the hemispheres, between land and ocean, and between mid- and low latitudes. As a result, consistent estimates of warming attributable to greenhouse gas emissions are obtained from all three models, and predictions are relatively robust to the use of more or less sensitive models. The transient climate response following a 1% yr−1 increase in CO2 is estimated to lie between 2.2 and 4 K century−1 (5–95 percentiles).

AbstractTo perform their business operations, telecommunication companies need to consume energy. This paper aims to analyze and compare the energy consumption and their greenhouse gas emissions for there of the biggest telecommunication companies: Vodafone, Orange and Telekom. Although the scientific literature proposed some analysis on the environmental measures that the telecommunication companies have to take, there is a shortage of researchers focused on GRI reporting data and the pairwise comparison method. The authors compared these telecommunication companies’ emissions under the following criteria: energy consumption (GRI 302-1), scope 1 (GRI 305-1), scope 2 (GRI 305-2) and scope 3 (GRI 305-3) greenhouse gas emissions, reduction of emissions (GRI 305-5), using the pairwise comparison method. To reduce their emissions, companies developed a sustainability strategy. This paper will further emphasize what are the plans to reduce emissions for the company which, following the analysis, pollutes the most. To provide an overview of the future of the company which, by the analysis, pollutes the most, the authors have identified and analyzed what are the main actions that the company should take to reduce their impact on the environment. To do so, the authors firstly analyze the causes of the pollution produced by the telecommunication company using Ishikawa diagram. Then, it identifies what are the main organizational processes that can be improved using APQC standardization, to show that the improvement can be made if the organization adjusts their organizational processes. This paper is an enhancement to the studies form the field because it provides a comparative analysis on three of the most competitive telecommunication companies in the world, uses GRI criteria and pairwise comparison method and gives an overview on the next steps for the telecommunication company to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.

Objective – This paper sets out to assess perceptions of food retailers regarding climate change, greenhouse gas emission and sustainability in the Nelson Mandela Bay region of South Africa. The primary objective of this study is to investigate the food retailers’ greenhouse gas emissions strategies. Climate change catastrophic potential and the harmful effect that it has had on the community and businesses has led to it being given attention from social media and in literature. Methodology/Technique – This paper covered a literature review that provided the theoretical framework. The empirical study that was carried out included self-administered questionnaires which were distributed to 120 food retailers who were selected from the population using convenience sampling. Findings - The results revealed that most of the respondents were neutral towards the impact of operational factors regarding GHG emission in the food retail sector. Novelty - There is limited research that has been conducted among food retailers from the designated population. The study provided guidelines that will be of assistance to food retailers when dealing with climate change and greenhouse gas emissions impact in the food retail sector. Type of Paper: Empirical.
