Abstract

Ecotourism areas are locations where human activities are prevalent in the surrounding environment, including settlements, trade, and other activities that contribute to the community’s economic, social, and cultural development. However, these activities can also pose a potential threat to environmental quality if not properly managed. A study conducted at the Mangrove Berbas Pantai area, Bontang City, aimed to identify the types, quantity, and abundance of visible (macro) waste. Sampling was carried out using purposive sampling methods. A 100 m x 20 m transect line was placed parallel to the mangrove ecotourism trail, considering areas that visually contained significant amounts of waste. This transect was divided into five lanes, each containing sub-transects measuring 5 m x 5 m as the sampling areas. Visible (macro) waste identified at the research location includes plastic, rubber, metal, glass, and wood. The composition of waste by weight shows that glass waste has the highest percentage by weight (59.2%), even though it is not the most abundant in number. Polynomial analysis indicates a low influence (21%) between waste type composition and waste weight, while the correlation is 46%.
