Since forests have increasingly been considered a critical issue under United Nations Framework Convention for Climate Change, a new economic approach to mitigating terrestrial emissions associated with climate change called "REDD+" (Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation) is introduced. REDD+ which is later known as carbon economy is a proposed performance-based mechanism in which developed country donors, corporations, non-governmental organizations, and individuals will compensate developing countries for forest emissions reductions. Southeast Asia hosts a number of early REDD+ type projects. However, there have been distinctive differences between countries that have been successful in implementing REDD+. Portraying on frameworks of national culture, this article is exploring the applicability of carbon economy in the developing country of Indonesia which has been located the most REDD+ projects.
