Abstract Increasing the amount of waste generation is a problem in every city. This research aims to know the waste transportation and management system to analyze its compliance with the applicable national and local regulations in Indonesia. Demak Regency produced 208 kg/day of waste which this number represent 35.18% of waste generated in Demak Regency from domestic and non domestic sector. The waste is transported and not sorted at sources, as the same with many other cities in Indonesia. Therefore, a proper waste management system is needed for Demak Regency that includes five aspects, which include technical, institutional, financial, regulation, and community aspects. The Environmental Agency of Demak Regency is the institution in charge of waste management in Demak Regency. The analysis shows that improvements are needed to achieve appropriate waste management system in Demak Regency. Therefore, efforts should be made to improve waste management in the Regency, for example, by improving technical performance, human resources, and promoting community-based waste management in the studied area.

Fossil Fuel Emissions

Learning or material on processing waste to produce electricity is needed because demand for electricity increases, while uncontrolled trash. Uncontrolled increase in litter causes uncontrolled pollution in the air anyway. Coupled with the fossil fuel emissions that are contributing to pollution and environmental pollution are greatest. Processing environmentally friendly fuels such as waste must be developed. Learning about the waste that exists today only still lacking and is still text-based or in book form. This leads to a lack of public interest to learn the material on waste management. The existence of this application, a solution to these problems. This application is designed in the form of exciting multimedia learning so as to increase public interest in the field of waste management. In addition in the form of multimedia, this application is also easy to operate, because the location and navigation menu uncomplicated.

Intermunicipal Cooperation

Intermunicipal cooperation offers an interesting alternative in cases when municipalities are too small to individually provide public services at an efficient cost level but are reluctant to form a municipal amalgamation in order to benefit from economies of scale. Forming a body consisting of multiple municipalities with a specific focus provides a way to reduce costs on service provision while maintaining municipal sovereignty in other areas. In our paper, we quantify the cost benefits of utilizing intermunicipal cooperation in the field of municipal solid waste management. We examine this using data from a 10-year period from municipalities in the South Moravian Region in the Czech Republic, where high municipal fragmentation results in many dominantly small municipalities that often are not able to provide public services at reasonable costs. This analysis contributes to the literature by conducting a long-term study of the effects of intermunicipal cooperation on public service provision costs. Our results suggest that municipalities participating in intermunicipal cooperation focused on waste management experienced annual cost savings of approximately 13.5% for provision of this service throughout the examined period of 2010–2019 when compared to municipalities that did not cooperate. These long-term results show how beneficial intermunicipal cooperation can be in reducing service costs. In addition to the direct financial benefits, municipal representatives stated that intermunicipal cooperation often brings other qualitative and non-financial benefits such as better service quality, the possibility to share infrastructure, and relief from administrative and managerial burdens through the utilization of professional management, which was especially appreciated by the smallest municipalities with limited administrative staff.

Stage Of Development

Local governments face the need to achieve sustainability in the provision of public services, and to do so, proper governance is essential. This work proposes a method to assess governance in local waste management systems based on a set of indicators that are flexible and robust enough to allow objective and reliable evaluation even where the information that is available is deficient. The proposal is based on a set of indicators divided into six categories that represent an increasing order of governance maturity: institutional framework; government effectiveness; transparency and accountability; network creation; participation; and corruption control. The article presents the proposal and a first test in two Mexican municipalities, which are an example of municipal solid waste management systems in an incipient stage of development, where there may be serious limitations in terms of access to information. The results show that the methodology can be replicated in different contexts and can be useful for making decisions about improvements in municipal solid waste management systems or for comparing them with others. In addition, sufficient information was obtained for a first diagnosis of the cases studied, which indicates the coherence of the proposed framework. Points for practitioners Proper governance is essential to achieve sustainability in the provision of public services. The assessment of local governance must be robust enough to motivate changes and, at the same time, flexible enough to allow reliable evaluation where the quality of service and the availability of information may be scant. We propose a new framework for the assessment of governance in municipal solid waste management systems that meets these requirements, based on a set of indicators clustered according to governance maturity.
