STRUKTUR TEGAKAN DAN STOK KARBON DI RUANG TERBUKA HIJAU PT TOYOTA MOTOR MANUFACTURING DI SUNTER DAN KARAWANG

Abstrak

The reduction of greenhouse gas emissions can be done by utilizing the presence of trees in urban areas that have an important role as carbon sinks. To find out the potential of tree species in absorbing carbon, research was conducted in the green open space of PT. Toyota Motor Manufacturing Indonesia in Sunter & Karawang. The study was conducted by measuring the diameter and height of trees, as many as 53 species of trees in Sunter and 32 species of trees in Karawang, which were five and four years old on average. The results of the calculation of biomass potential and carbon content of the two locations were dominated by three species, namely sengon buto (Albizia chinensis (Osbeck) Merr.), mahogany (Swietenia macrophylla King.), and angsana (Pterocarpus indicus Willd.), each of 126.27 tons (63.14 tons C is equivalent to 231.71 tons of CO₂), 84.45 tons (42.22 tons C is equivalent 154.96 tons CO₂), and 84.07 tons or 42.03 tons C is equivalent to 154.26 tons CO₂.
