Q & A

What is the primary cause of climate change discussed in the transcript?

The primary cause of climate change discussed is the emission of greenhouse gases, especially carbon dioxide (CO2), which contributes to the warming of the Earth.

Which country in ASEAN has the highest carbon emissions?

Indonesia has the highest carbon emissions in ASEAN, as indicated by the transcript.

What are some of the major sectors contributing to carbon emissions in Indonesia?

The major sectors contributing to carbon emissions in Indonesia are transportation (28%), electrical power (26%), and industry (22%), with other sectors such as commercial and agriculture contributing smaller amounts.

What does 'mitigation' refer to in the context of the transcript?

'Mitigation' refers to the prevention or reduction of carbon emissions, focusing on sectors where emissions can be prioritized for reduction.

What is meant by 'low carbon products' in the transcript?

Low carbon products are those that are designed and produced with a minimal carbon footprint, helping to reduce the amount of greenhouse gases emitted into the atmosphere.

What are some examples of products mentioned that go through a long production process, impacting carbon emissions?

Examples include clothing, bicycles, and shoes. Each product requires raw material selection, production processes, and transportation, all of which contribute to carbon emissions.

What is the role of transportation in carbon emissions related to product delivery?

Transportation significantly contributes to carbon emissions during product delivery. Different modes of transportation (e.g., trains, cars, planes) produce varying amounts of emissions, with trains having the smallest carbon footprint.

How does the cement industry contribute to carbon emissions?

The cement industry is a major contributor to carbon emissions, with the largest source being the chemical reactions during cement production (56%), followed by fuel use (34%). The transportation and raw materials sectors also contribute to emissions.

What is the role of industrial engineering in reducing carbon emissions?

Industrial engineering plays a key role by optimizing production processes, improving energy efficiency, using renewable energy sources, and designing products and systems that minimize waste and carbon emissions.

What strategies are being implemented to reduce emissions in the cement industry?

The cement industry is working on strategies such as using electric trucks for transportation, switching from coal to biomass for fuel, and implementing a roadmap to achieve net-zero carbon emissions by 2050.
