Optimasi Pengelolaan Sampah Plastik Melalui Pendekatan Edukatif Dan Pemberdayaan Siswa Sekolah Menengah Pertama (SMP) Di Kecamatan Bangko Pusako Kabupaten Rokan Hilir
Even in the setting of schools, open burning of rubbish is still frequently
practiced. This is in conflict with the government's program connected to the
Pollution Control Strategic Plan (2020–2024), which has the goal of lowering
greenhouse gas emissions, and the waste management policy (Law No. 18 of 2008).
The justification is that the waste cannot be carried to the TPS or TPA, preventing it
from building up and having negative effects like pollution. Lack of awareness, bad
habits, and the idea that burning trash is simple and inexpensive are the causes. This
issue also exists in SMPN 1 and SMPN 5, Bangko Pusako District, where waste is
still managed conventionally by burning it all together without sorting it (visually,
40% of the waste is plastic). The quantity of waste in the two schools, as well as the
timetable for its transfer to the disposal/burning site, have not been under control.
Because the school has not demonstrated any sort of effective waste management,
this requirement makes it more difficult for it to meet the target date for applying for
SMP with the Adiwiyata predicate (in 2022). It is known from interviews and the
findings of research questionnaires that the school is well-versed in the processes and
effects of waste management (including plastic waste). Due to the limited
infrastructure, expense, time, and governing laws, they have not been able to
participate more. Through an educational approach to improving management
conditions regarding the nature of the school as an educational area, and by
empowering students as the main component of the school, an optimization of plastic
waste management strategies at SMPN 1 and SMPN 5 Bangko Pusako was carried
out in this study. Understanding is imparted by repeated verbal socialization,
inclusion in instructional materials, use as an example in school life, as well as the
creation of policies that have been unanimously agreed upon. Each part of the school
is expected to reduce the amount of plastic trash produced, sort waste into its
appropriate categories before disposal, reuse waste whenever possible to keep it out
of the environment's rubbish heaps, and refrain from burning waste. Due to the
majority of the debris being given to scavengers and stacked up, the results indicated
a decrease in the volume of waste produced and the frequency of burning. The trash's
contents may appear more appropriately for each type. Some plastic products have
been replaced with other recyclable materials by students and instructors. This
method of controlling plastic waste in the school setting is anticipated to serve as a
good model for other schools.
