The waste generated by industry and households promotes intensive waste management. However, because the government fails to manage the waste, the community must play an active role in assisting. Plastic waste is a dangerous waste if not managed properly, so that the Wiguna Waste Bank is present with anxiety about the dangers of waste. The administrative management of the Wiguna waste bank still uses conventional bookkeeping. As a result, an information system was created to aid in the administration of the waste bank. The system was designed with the primary features of personal data, waste data, deposit notes, and savings. Waste bank managers benefit from the information system because reports can be easily generated, allowing the principle of accountability to be met.

In February 2017 China began to require the regional coordination of four ministries and 28 cities surrounding Beijing to manage air pollution. The Coordination attempts to unify air pollution standards and implements various new methods to monitor air pollution. Leveraging the natural experiment and using a difference-in-differences research design, we note that firms located in the treatment cities invest more in the environment than those in the control cities. In addition, we find that non-state-owned firms (non-SOEs) respond more strongly than SOEs. The findings remain qualitatively the same after accounting for selection bias in the cities included in the Coordination. Most importantly, air quality improves for treatment cities after the implementation of the Coordination. Our findings offer lessons to other emerging markets for implementing their air pollution management programs. Specifically, we sharpen our knowledge of the administrative management needed to improve coordination among government agencies and local officials in the management of air pollution and suggest that the government can play an active role in enhancing air pollution management.

Abstract This paper aims to describe women’s role with active participation in waste management within their communities. The environmental awareness education of citizens combined with the application of the ‘4Rs’ principle (reduce, reuse, recycle, and replant) is necessary to develop waste banks to resolve the issue of waste. Waste bank management is predicted to be the best solution for the municipal waste management and increases the public’s awareness of recycling household waste as a waste management strategy. An increase in awareness begins at the community level. Women can be as social capital in community with the capacity to move the community through their active role in waste management activities. This study considered citizens in Karang Resik, Tasikmalaya, West Java, Indonesia and used the emancipatory participation methods of counselling, educating, and training. The results showed that the presence of a waste bank educated residents to be disciplined in managing their waste and provided extra income from waste collection. Moreover, it strengthened the social cohesion for women within the community. This study shows that local female administrators in family welfare empowerment programmes can be used as role models for other women and can provide a significant impact on waste management.

The increase of solid waste production is a general problem in municipality, particularly of plastic waste. The durability, light-weight, anticorrosiveness, and inexpensiveness properties of plastic make it favorable to be used in daily life, including in Salatiga. However, plastic is one of some non-biodegradable materials that could lead to soil and water pollution as it contains toxic compounds such as aromatic hydrocarbons, phthalates, and organochlorine. Various studies in municipal solid waste management have been conducted. While those studies often applied various approaches separately, researches in regard to the role of stakeholders in municipal solid waste management are very limited. This study aims to explain the plastic waste management in Salatiga based on the role of the corresponding stakeholders. This qualitative study shows that there are four stakeholders who were involved in municipal plastic waste management in Salatiga. They were the households who generate wastes, the scavengers who sorts the wastes, Bank Sampah and collectors who have the same role in order to collect the wastes and treat the plastic wastes through reusing or recycling processes, and the government. Currently, efforts in waste treatment in Salatiga are focused on the system of collecting-tranferring-disposal mode, waste treatment by reuse and recycle processing, and landfilling. Reducing plastic consumption must take into account the sociocultural aspect and environmental awareness, as the people still interested to use plastic instead of using other materials in substitution. Finally, the role of government is central to educate the community in term of sorting activities and reducing waste production, build the capacity of Bank Sampah, and manage the role of scavengers and collectors. Other alternatives include creating synergy between the collectors and Bank Sampah, as well as ensuring final treatment of the unprocessed wastes disposed by collectors and Bank Sampah.

The problem of waste in Batu City can threaten tourism sector in this city. The Waste Management System Program is held by the Environment Agency (DLH) Batu City seems to be unable to access waste problems in the upstream sector, particularly  household waste from residential settlements. This lack capacity of the program followed up by DLH by organizing a waste bank program through the establishment of the Community Waste Bank (KBS) Kartini Sejati which coordinated around 60 waste banks in Batu City to be involved in waste management.This study aims to explain the involvement of KBS Kartini Sejati in waste management in co-production and the obstacles faced by it. The concept of co-production refer to an alternative concept in the implementation of public services where implementation focuses on the dominant role of the community, while the government or other parties such as the private sector are only facilitators. This research  use qualitative method by utilizing data from observations, interviews and documentation. The results of this study indicate that KBS Kartini Sejati in several of its activities which include training in waste management, waste management, and "Sapu Bersih Sanpah Nyemplung Kali" (Saberpungli) have applied the principles of co-production. It is due to those activities have implemented six co-production principles, namely the development of community capacity, mutually beneficial relationships between actors, network development, the government as a facilitator and catalyst, and the community as an important asset in implementing services. However, in its implementation, the waste bank program still has several obstacles such as the limitations of the budgetary resources, the decreasing level of public awareness to be active in waste banks, and the lack of innovation in waste managementKeywords: Co-production; waste management, waste bank

This study aims to describe the current state of the implementation of waste management as part of public service provision in Pontianak Municipality, West Kalimantan, Indonesia. For this purpose, this study employed a qualitative descriptive approach by applying SWOT analysis accompanied by lessons learned from Japan. The findings indicated that there has been an increase in waste transportation services year by year and that the waste management carried out by Pontianak Municipality still primarily relies on landfill. Waste reduction efforts through 3R programs such as integrated waste treatment plant and waste bank have not shown significant results in reducing the generation of waste. Using SWOT analysis, several factors that affect the performance of waste management in Pontianak Municipality were identified. By considering those influencing factors and learning from best practices executed by Kyoto City, this study suggests that the government needs to develop an integrated waste management based on priority scale with measurable and realistic objectives, particularly those related to reduction and recycling activities as well as stakeholder‘s engagement.

The change of waste management paradigm becomes an important thing to do, as a step adaptation to the increasing rate of waste generation every year in Indonesia. 100% management target has been divided into two parts, namely the reduction (30%) and waste handling (70%). Reductions focus on source limitation and 3R program optimization, whereas handling involves collecting and final processing activities. However, the current level of waste reduction is still very low (12%), the government made various efforts to increase it, one of its with the waste bank program. DIY province as a pioneer in the concept of waste bank continues to develop to increase the participation of the community, from 166 locations in 2013, increased to 792 locations in 2017 and 495 of its as the waste bank (62.5%). Average waste bank with 43 customers, able to manage the waste up to 2,078,064 kg/month, with the data can be estimated the amount of waste that can be managed in the city of Yogyakarta, Sleman and Bantul Regency. The city of Yogyakarta has 433 units of the waste bank, capable of managing waste up to 899,801.8 kg/month, Sleman Regency has 34 units of the waste bank (78.966,4 kg/month) and Bantul has 24 units of the waste bank (49.873,5 kg/month). The integration of formal and informal sectors through waste banks can increase the percentage of waste management services. The level of service in Yogyakarta City increased from 85% to 95.5%, Sleman District from 30.71 to 31%, and Bantul Regency from 7.49 to 7.7%

ABSTRAKBerbagai macam aktivitas yang ada di Pulau Bali, menyebabkan seluruh elemen masyarakat bergerak dalam berbagai bidang pekerjaan yang tersedia. Hampir sebagian besar aktivitas masyarakat menimbulkan sampah baik skala rumah tangga maupun skala industri salah satunya di industri pariwisata. Pada industri pariwisata di bali yang merupakan salah satu penopang utama kehidupan masyarakat bali, sampah ini hampir ditemui hampir disemua objek wisata seiring dengan makin masifnya kegiatan pariwisata. Meningkatnya penumpukan sampah ini bukannya tidak disadari oleh pemerintah dan masyarakat, tetapi perlu ditingkatkan gerakan dalam pengelolaan sampah yang ada. Hal ini terlihat dari adanya Peraturan Gubernur Bali nomor 97 tahun 2018 tentang pembatasan timbulan sampah plastik sekali pakai yang menunjukkan bagaimana pemerintah peduli akan permasalah sampah yang sudah lama terjadi selama ini terutamanya dalam menjaga citra pariwisata bali. Meskipun masih cukup tinggi timbulan sampah yang sering ditemui di beberapa tempat. Penelitian ini akan mencari beberapa gerakan masyarakat baik yang terorganisir seperti pada komunitas Trash Hero Indonesia maupun yang belum dalam mengurangi timbulan penggunaan sampah untuk menjaga citra pariwisata bali. Sehingga didapatkan beberapa tindakan alternatif yang mendukung Peraturan Gubernur Bali nomor 97 tahun 2018 yang mampu secara efektif dalam mengurangi resiko pencemaran lingkungan dengan adanya sampah plastik tersebut. Diharapkan tindakan alternatif ini dapat menjaga dan memberikan warisan yang positif bagi generasi berikutnya. Kata Kunci : Citra Pariwisata, Plastik, SampahABSTRACTVarious kinds of activities that exist on the island of Bali, causing all elements of society to move forward in various fields of work. Most of the community's activities cause garbage both in household scale and industrial scale, one of which is in the tourism industry. In the tourism industry in Bali which is one of the main pillars of the life of the Balinese people, this waste is almost found in almost all tourism objects along with the increasingly massive tourism activities. Increasing the accumulation of waste is not realized by the government and the community, but it needs to be improved in the management of existing waste management. This is evident from the existence of the Bali Governor Regulation number 97 of 2018 concerning restrictions on the generation of disposable plastic waste that shows how the government cares about the long-standing waste problem especially in maintaining the image of Bali tourism. Although it is still quite high, waste generation is often found in several places. This research will look for some well-organized community movements such as the Trash Hero Indonesia community and those who have not reduced the use of waste to maintain the image of Bali tourism. So that there are several alternative actions that support the Bali Governor Regulation number 97 of 2018 which is able to effectively reduce the risk of environmental pollution in the presence of plastic waste. It is hoped that these alternative actions can maintain and provide a positive legacy for the next generation. Keywords: Waste, Plastic, Tourism Image
