Environmental issues on the coast are of concern because of their important existence, but environmental conditions on the coast, especially mangrove forests, are increasingly critical Based on Clark Labs data, the extent of mangrove conversion to ponds from 1999 to 2018. The on going community participation in the mangrove rehabilitation program has its dynamics because it involves many parties. The parties involved include local governments (Forestry Service, UPT Sawitto, and Fisheries Service), farmers, village governments, and communities. During the implementation of the program activities, the main issues encouraging community participation in mangrove rehabilitation such as analysis, strategy, mobilization, action, evaluation, and sustainability are very interesting to be studied further. This research uses qualitative research with a case study approach. The unit of analysis is the mangrove rehabilitation program. Key data were collected through in-depth interviews with key informants. For the data triangulation process, observation of mangrove rehabilitation sites was carried out to complete the research data. Furthermore, the data is analyzed using data reduction, data presentation, and conclusion. The result of this study is an evaluation of community participation in the mangrove rehabilitation program in Tanroe Hamlet, Bababinanga Village, while some issues have not been satisfactory such as participation in evaluation and participation in decision-making. Furthermore, developing a communication strategy run by the Pinrang Regency Government is very good for the short term. In the long term, it has not yielded significant results in some areas of the rehabilitation program. This is influenced by several things, including land rehabilitation and empowerment by communicators, extension programs and public campaigns, community participation in planning and decision-making, diverse communication media, formation of working groups and training, monitoring, and feedback. In principle, the practice carried out is good but still at the exploration stage.

Menekan Laju Global Warming Melalui “Trustation” sebagai Bank Sampah Di Lingkungan Universitas

2024-07-29T22:06:19+07:00

Waste banks are a potential solution for managing waste in tertiary institutions, and TRUSTATION (Trust Your Trash to Our Station) is a waste bank planned to operate within the Indonesian University of Education (UPI) as a revolution in the process of overcoming waste problems. To realize TRUSTATION and show that UPI is taking waste problems seriously, an analysis of the waste management condition within UPI is needed. This research aims to explain the waste management system at UPI, the response of UPI residents to waste management, and the idea of establishing a waste bank. The study uses a mixed-method approach with data collection techniques including interviews, surveys, and literature studies. Data analysis techniques include data reduction, data presentation, and drawing conclusions. Results of the study show that waste management at UPI still relies on sorting and processing at the TPS level. UPI residents choose to hand over their waste to the waste management, but the absence of waste processing facilities on campus or around their residence is a significant obstacle, causing waste to remain mixed at the TPS. Therefore, UPI residents support the establishment of a waste bank within UPI.

Doom Island is a small island in Southwest Papua Province, Indonesia. Located right across from Sorong City, clean water services from PDAM do not yet reach all of Dum Island, so some people on Doom Island still use dug wells or shallow wells. The aim of this research is to determine the influence of sea water, the status of quality standards on the quality of shallow well water in RK 4, West Doom village, and the solution to its influence is to build an absorption well. The sampling technique uses purposive sampling intentionally, determining water quality status using the storet method. The results of the research at sample points 1 - 14, at sample points 1 - 3 there is the influence of sea water on shallow well water with a distance from the shoreline of around 13 - 22 meters with a shallow well depth of around 5 - 6 meters below the ground surface, with a value salinity 1180 – 2130 mg/L. The high salinity test value resulted in the influence of sea water in shallow wells at several well points in RK 4 West Doom Village. On average, most of the shallow wells in RK 4 West Dum District have class B water quality status, namely lightly polluted.
