Abstract
Decentralised government aimed to enhance local participation in regional development. The regional governments have been mandated by the central government to implement carrying capacity assessment to ensure that the ecosystem services would be maintained and adequate to meet the demands. Based on the carrying capacity assessment in Seruyan of Central Kalimantan, the recommendations related to emissions from deforestation and forest degradation are: 1) to protect all existing forest covers in the north; 2) to restore areas within the forest and national parks; and 3) to restore riparian areas and areas with slope > 45%. By implementing all these recommendations, the district would be able to reduce an annual emissions of 3.7 MtCO2e and 1.3 MtCO2e compared to the district baseline and BAU scenario, respectively, until 2030.
