Methods

This study uses a literature study approach. This data collection method is

used to trace historical data (Bugin, 2008 p. 121).

Data collection in research is obtained from journals, books, news, and

proceedings. The data that has been obtained are then analyzed using

descriptive analysis methods.

Findings and Discussion

Waste Problem Solution

1. Familiarize yourself with good waste disposal methods ranging from household environments to

Temporary Waste Dumps (TPS) using special plastic waste.

2. Organizing Temporary Waste Dumps (TPS) into a more productive utilization center for organic

and inorganic waste.

3. Making the remaining organic and inorganic waste into biogas raw materials or other things that

can be made through the waste residue

4. This community-based waste management program is very effective in breaking the chain of

waste distribution from Temporary Waste Dumps (TPS) to landfills (TPA).

5. Creating new businesses at the community level, which in turn can manifest community

independence in managing their own waste wisely.

Old Pattern of waste disposal. New concept of waste disposal

The problem of waste that never ends has created groups that care about the environment

in various regions in Indonesia. This movement was born as a form of responsibility and

concern for a group of Indonesians towards the waste problem in Indonesia. This activity

gave birth to many institutions called “Bank Sampah".

Many bank sampah are increasingly developing in terms of community empowerment and turn their

areas as waste-free areas and even become tourist attractions

Conclusion

Data has shown that Indonesia is one of

the largest waste-producing countries in

the world, especially plastic waste.

Various programs have been made by the

government to overcome this problem, but

in practice this is still far from what is

expected. But on the other hand, there are

many people who care about the

environment so that environmental

movements and communities are born so

that they are moved to create an institution

called “Bank Sampah" which has been

quite widely spread throughout Indonesia

and some even transformed into a waste-

free area. The activities carried out are

also very interesting and creative. Organic

and inorganic waste is processed into

something that is of sale value and even

some handicrafts have been exported to

other countries.

These phenomena should be an opportunity for

the government to support movements that are

born from the community with budget assistance

and continue to seek synergies and approaches

with various institutions or community leaders

involved in providing education and community

empowerment regarding awareness and

independence of waste organizations into

valuable products and high selling value. In

addition, in overcoming the problem of solid

waste, it is also a very good opportunity for the

government to improve the community's

economy through the creative craft industry

made from waste.
