Sampah Bernilai: Inovasi Berkelanjutan dalam Pengelolaan Sampah Organik dan Anorganik

Abstract

This initiative aimed to address environmental challenges related to organic and inorganic waste by introducing waste management concepts in a community setting. The focus of the study was to promote sustainable waste handling through education and community engagement. Organic waste management techniques, such as composting and eco-enzyme production, were introduced to provide environmentally friendly methods that could enhance soil fertility and reduce the use of chemical fertilizers. Inorganic waste, like plastic, was discussed in the context of a planned waste bank, which would allow community members to exchange waste for potential monetary or point-based rewards. This educational approach was designed to foster a circular economy mindset, encouraging community members to view waste as a valuable resource. Preliminary findings indicate a positive response and increased interest in waste management practices among participants. This initial engagement demonstrates the potential of community-based waste management systems to support both environmental sustainability and economic opportunities in the community.
