Peningkatan Pemahaman Masyarakat Melalui Sosialisasi Pengelolaan Sampah Berbasis Observasi Sampah Di Mangrove Dompak
AI summary Read the abstract
Researchers conducted waste-management education sessions for communities near the Dompak mangrove ecosystem in Indonesia, measuring a 66.67% improvement in participant understanding via pre/post tests, while field observation revealed plastic waste dominated 80% of macro debris and film-type microplastics comprised 85% of sediment microplastics.
Permasalahan sampah laut di kawasan pesisir, termasuk ekosistem mangrove di Dompak, semakin memprihatinkan dengan dominasi sampah plastik dan keberadaan mikroplastik. Rendahnya kesadaran masyarakat dalam pengelolaan sampah mendorong perlunya kegiatan sosialisasi yang terarah dan berbasis data lapangan. Kegiatan ini bertujuan untuk meningkatkan pemahaman masyarakat melalui sosialisasi pengelolaan sampah sekaligus melakukan observasi jenis sampah di ekosistem mangrove Dompak. Metode yang digunakan meliputi sosialisasi dengan pre-test dan post-test untuk mengukur perubahan pemahaman masyarakat, serta pengamatan langsung komposisi sampah ukuran makro dan mikro di lokasi penelitian. Hasil uji Wilcoxon menunjukkan adanya perbedaan signifikan antara nilai pre test dan post test, sedangkan uji N-Gain menghasilkan peningkatan pemahaman masyarakat tentang pengelolaan sampah sebesar 66,67% pada kategori sedang. Observasi lapangan memperlihatkan bahwa sampah plastik mendominasi hingga 80% dari total komposisi sampah makro, sedangkan mikroplastik yang terdeteksi pada sedimen didominasi oleh tipe film sebesar 85%. Temuan ini mengindikasikan bahwa sosialisasi yang dilakukan efektif dalam meningkatkan pemahaman masyarakat tentang pengelolaan sampah, namun pencemaran plastik di ekosistem mangrove Dompak masih tinggi sehingga memerlukan tindak lanjut berupa aksi nyata dan penguatan pengelolaan sampah secara berkelanjutan.

Sosialisasi Dan Edukasi Mengenai Dampak Mikroplastik Dan Bahaya Plastik Sekali Pakai Pada Siswa Smp Islam Nurul Iman Di Pulau Gili Iyang
AI summary Read the abstract
A community outreach program at an Indonesian island school raised student microplastic awareness significantly, with pre-test scores rising from 44.5 to 68.5 post-intervention (N-Gain = 0.44, moderate effect). Coastal youth education about microplastic hazards supports SDG water quality targets and builds the community-level awareness needed to reduce plastic waste entering marine environments.
Pemahaman Masyarakat Desa Ketapang Kabupaten Pesawaran Tentang Sampah Laut (marine Debris)
AI summary Read the abstract
This community outreach study assessed local awareness of marine debris among residents of Ketapang Village in Pesawaran Regency, Indonesia, a popular coastal recreation area in Lampung Province. Field observations confirmed the presence of both organic and inorganic marine debris at the beach, with organic waste predominating due to the area's proximity to mangroves. The study found that poor public understanding of debris risks—including microplastic formation and entry into the food chain—highlights the need for targeted environmental education in coastal communities.
