ECOLOGICALL FOOTPRINT AND BIOCAPACITY ANALYSIS FOR FLOODING PREVENTION IN SOUTH SUMATERA
Abstract: Planning is the
beginning of development activities towards sustainable environmental urgently
needed and by integrating ecological footprint into development planning in the
region, especially the Spatial Plan (RTRW) that is effective and has a strong
tenure. This research aims to analyze existing ecological footprint in South
Sumatra, to be able to note the condition of regions ecological footprint. Data
analysis is carried out through a quantitative analysis, such as calculating
where Ecological Footprint (EFA) and Counting Biocapacity (BC). Results of the
analysis obtained EF EF = 0.967 and 1.088 that BC = EF <BC which means
undershoot, which needs space do not exceed the space available to support the
population lives in the region of South Sumatra. Recommendations are given in
integrating Ecologicall Footprint in South Sumatra RTRW is making patterns of
spatial use directives that integrate the needs of consumption and waste
disposal populations, both individually and as a community.
