Abstract

This study aims to describe the forms of environmental degradation depicted in the novel Teruslah Bodoh Jangan Pintar by Tere Liye based on Greg Garrard’s ecocritical perspective. The research was conducted during 2025–2026, with the novel Teruslah Bodoh Jangan Pintar, published by Sabak Grip Nusantara in 2024, serving as the object of study. The population consisted of all narrative elements within the novel, while the sample comprised excerpts representing environmental degradation. The primary research instrument was the researcher, supported by data cards for recording and organizing the findings. Data were collected through reading and note-taking techniques. The data were analyzed using a descriptive qualitative method, involving data collection, data classification, data categorization, data interpretation, and conclusion drawing based on Greg Garrard’s ecocritical theory. The results reveal that environmental degradation in the novel is represented through four major forms: environmental pollution, deforestation and land degradation caused by mining activities, wildlife habitat destruction, and ecological disasters, including clean water crises, floods, and landslides. These findings indicate that Teruslah Bodoh Jangan Pintar contains ecological criticism of the exploitation of natural resources carried out without regard for environmental sustainability and ecosystem balance.
