Summary
Hal ini harusnya menjadi fokus perhatian perusahaan dalam pengelolaan lahan di Indonesia jika dunia berharap untuk mengurangi emisi karbon (Pratiwi dan Sari, 2016). Fokus dari kuisioner tersebut mengenai bagaimana kondisi perusahaan dipengaruhi oleh pemanasan global atau langkah yang telah dilakukan perusahaan untuk mengurangi emisi gas rumah kaca. Salah satu cara yang dapat ditempuh adalah dengan menyertakan pengungkapan emisi karbon (carbon emission disclosure) di dalam annual report atau suistainability report perusahaan. Perusahaan yang melakukan pengungkapan emisi karbon memiliki beberapa pertimbangan diantaranya untuk mendapatkan legitimasi dari para stakeholder, menghindari ancamanancaman terutama bagi perusahaanperusahaan yang menghasilkan gas rumah kaca (greenhouse gas) seperti peningkatan operating costs, risiko reputasi (reputational risk), pengurangan permintaan (reduced demand), proses hukum (legal proceedings), serta denda dan pinalti (Berthelot & Robert, 2011)
