Environmental damage has a direct impact on human life judging by environmental problems that are increasingly rampant. This damage is caused by human activities that are not environmentally friendly that always occur so that environmental damage does not occur continuously for human life in the future need better recovery. Community participation can be given in the form of thoughts/ideas, materials, energy, and skills to help the success of disaster management programs. The method used in this research is the ethnographic method about the Rejang tribe community as the center of competency cultivation including qualitative research type. Local wisdom of Cao Mukak Imbo Custom in Rejang tribal communities is very rich in forms of local wisdom can be in the form of values, norms, beliefs, and special rules. The form of local wisdom Cao Mukak Imbo Custom is very instrumental in disaster mitigation as for the prohibition contained in the local wisdom is the rule of working on land steep areas or around waterfalls if we review in fact because these areas are water catchment areas and when cultivated and planted plants such as palawija can trigger landslides or floods. Preserving the culture we have will encourage the skills and knowledge possessed by local communities. Local wisdom a noble value prevailing in the community's life system to protect and manage the environment wisely and wisely so that the environment is maintained sustainably.

Disaster mitigation activities require the availability of a potentially flooded area (PFA) map. One of the causes of flooding is the criticality of water catchment areas; the higher the criticality level, the higher the flooding potential. This study aims to determine the accuracy of the model for determining the PFA around Bengkulu City, which was derived from the Level of Critical Water Catchment Area (LCWCA) model developed by the Ministry of Forestry. After obtaining the LCWCA Map, another analysis was performed in order to obtain the PFA Map. Furthermore, the overlaying was carried out with the Existing Flood Map in such a way that the level of accuracy is known. The threshold values from Justice are used to justify the level of accuracy in three categories, namely Good (> 85%), Moderate (70 - 85%), and Poor (<70%). The results showed that in the eight sub-watersheds around the city of Bengkulu, there were two sub-watersheds with reasonable accuracy (> 85%), which means that there was > 85% overlap between areas on the Potentially Flooded Area Map as a result of the analysis of The LCWCA with the area on the Existing Flood Map. There are three sub-watersheds with Moderate accuracy (70 - 85%) and three sub-watersheds with Poor accuracy (<70%)

Spatial planning as a guidance in spatial use, arrange various permitted activities in a space by considering various implications including natural disasters which may not be predictable. Semarang City with diverse topographic conditions has the potential for natural disasters, including flood. One of the flood disaster mitigation efforts is based on the existence of green space and blue-space as water catchment areas. But in fact, the substance of spatial planning has not clearly regulated the urban blue space. This study aims to integrate the blue space in the substance of regional spatial planning as a disaster mitigation instrument in the Semarang City. The research was conducted through a review of the substance of the spatial planning and flood disaster mitigation efforts that have been carried out in Semarang City. Based on the results of the studies that have been conducted, the integration of the blue space plan can be integrated in several contents of the regional spatial plan, starting from the formulation of objectives, policies, and spatial planning strategies to the direction of controlling spatial use.

Abstract An environmental problem that often occurs during the rainy season is standing rainwater. Therefore, some water catchment areas are needed to reduce standing water that will minimize environmental damage instead. In densely populated urban areas the available space for water infiltration is very limited. Using biopore infiltration holes’ technology which uses organic waste to increase the rate of water infiltration into the soil can be an alternative solution. This study aims to determine the effectiveness of biopore infiltration holes with organic waste treatment to increase the rate of infiltration of soil. The methodology used in this study is the Horton test, in which biopore infiltration holes are using PVC pipes with various diameter 3 in, 4 in, and 5 in. The measurement of the infiltration rate observed by decrease in water level every interval of 5 min, 10 min, 15 min, 20 min, 25 min, and 30 min continually. The results show that the effectiveness of biopore infiltration holes using PVC pipe with a diameter of 3 in, 4 in and 5 in are increasing 62.92%, 70.60%, and 54.11% respectively.

Manalu A. 2020. Community based peat conservation. Jurnal Lahan Suboptimal: Journal of Suboptimal Lands 9(1): 11-22.Peat forms naturally in swamp areas when dead plants rot and accumulate, which then decompresses and accumulates within hundreds to thousands of years. Peat can store 20 times more carbon than mineral soil. Indonesia's peatlands store about 46 Gt of carbon or around 8-14% of world peat carbon (Maltby and Immirizi, 1993). Peat has an important ecosystem that acts as a protector of the Earth's atmosphere from the greenhouse effect, ecological buffer, saves biodiversity and a place to live for various flora and fauna. Peat have the ability to resemble sponges which make them suitable as water catchment areas. The purpose of this study is to provide an overview of the importance of protecting and maintaining peatlands as protectors of the Earth's atmosphere, controlling global climate by involving the community. This research was conducted with qualitative descriptive methods taken from various literature and national media. The results showed that land degradation has occurred due to the extensive conversion of peatlands into plantations which in the process of causing environmental damage and peat ecosystems in various regions of Indonesia. For this reason, community-based peat conservation needs to be done so that sustainability is maintained and the community gets economic benefits from peatlands.

Kopeng Village is one of the Vocational Villages in the Getasan Subdistrict. The problems faced by Kopeng Village include the reduction of water catchment areas due to the transfer of land functions into settlements. This is because the tourism sector began to develop and encouraged high physical development such as homestays, housing, and supporting infrastructure.  Agricultural activities also tend to change the hue of nature. Many trees that are located in the fields must be cut down not to block the sunlight. As a result, rainwater also cannot be absorbed into the ground but flows to the surface. Also, Kopeng is vulnerable to landslides. This is because the village's location is in the highlands, and the amount of critical land scattered. Also, the critical land is not covered with plant vegetation, so it is prone to landslides in the rainy season. Many critical lands are located very close to residential areas and are instead used as agricultural land. This condition is undoubtedly dangerous for the safety of residents. Moreover, Kopeng village becomes one of the tourist villages, so disaster mitigation should always take precedence. A lot of vacant lands are also untapped. Whereas if used, adding coverage of green areas is also beneficial for the community's welfare through the results of the tree. Therefore, the greening movement in Kopeng village needs to be one of the urgent programs to be carried out immediately. So that later indirectly will support the existing role as a vocational village and tourist village. The planted plant is a type of annual perennial, considering the fruit commodity is not so good when planted in the highlands. Other than that, the perennial has a solid rooting system and the ability to instigate oxygen. Some commodities that can be planted include fir, red shoots, Dutch teak, and acacia. The selection of perennials is expected to produce wood in the next few years and supply oxygen to strengthen kopeng village as an ecotourism area

The principle of ‘environmental integrity’ is a fundamental aspect of jus post bellum. Human life, economy, and culture depend on a healthy, functioning environment. However, environmental integrity is a complex concept to describe. Doctrinal thresholds for legally material environmental damage (significant, long-term, widespread) do not capture it. This chapter interrogates the jus post bellum literature and then turns to scholarship on wilderness management in the Anthropocene era, which also engages with the meaning of ‘environmental integrity’, ‘naturalness’, ‘unimpaired’, or, in the words of the Factory at Chorzów case which sets the international law standard for reparations of damage, ‘the situation which would, in all probability, have existed if that act had not been committed’. Recognition that pristine or historical conditions are often impossible to recover or maintain leads to the legal, ethical, and scientific analysis of evolving environmental norms that this chapter offers.
