Community Participation In Improving Environmental Protection and Effort Management

Abstract

Abstract The aims of this study to examine and elaborate community participation in anticipating and tackling pollution and environmental damage, thereby creating a healthy and sustainable life. Environmental issues are essential to ensure and make the earth and the natural surroundings a livable space for a peaceful and prosperous life. The actions that pollute the environment are tantamount to killing life. Environmental mismanagement can at least be caused by various factors such as education level, economic problems, lifestyle, weakness of the legislative system, and weak supervision of environmental management, causing pollution and damage to the environment. A normative legal method was used to conduct qualitative research. Data were gathered from various sources, including literature, books, laws and regulations, legal theory, and legal expert opinions, with a focus on environmental management and preservation in Indonesia. The results show, the public’s awareness of the environment is limited due to the general public’s ignorance of environmental aspects and not knowing the consequences of polluting and destroying the environment. For this reason, efforts are needed, such as counseling, guidance, role models, and community involvement in tackling environmental problems. Increasing law enforcement activities with an educative-persuasive and preventive dimension needs to be improved and encouraged again. Government performance is also essential to create public participation or awareness of the importance of their environmental functions by working together to clean and maintain.
