Abstract

Contaminants entering marine systemts have become environmental issues because of their significantly negative impacts. Coasts of Rumah Tiga Village are connected to Ambon Bay and provide marine habitats and tourist attractions due to their location close to Merah Putih Bridge (including recreations, restaurants and aquaculture sites). These human related activities contribute to the discharge of wastes into marine waters. Due to their location at inshore outer Ambon Bay, marine pollutants from the bay tend to be applied at the location. Because of the concentrated pollutants at the location, the coasts of Rumah Tiga Village are a suitable location to conduct beach clean-ups in Ambon Bay. The beach clean-up activities also aim to allow Study Program of Marine Science of Faculty of Fisheries and Marine Sciences, Pattimura University to raise awareness to its students and local community to care for environment.

Abstract

This Community Service activity aims to improve the understanding of Rehoboth Christian Middle School students in Ambon regarding marine debris, its sources, and its impact on marine organisms through an interactive educational approach. Ambon Bay, as a semi-enclosed body of water, faces a serious problem in the form of accumulated plastic waste, most of which originates from land-based activities. The activity was carried out through a presentation-based socialization, pre-test, discussion, and post-test. The evaluation results showed a significant increase in three main aspects: understanding marine debris, waste sources, and how to reduce it, from 53–63% in the pre-test to 100% in the post-test. The material provided emphasized the local context of Ambon Bay, including waste sources, its ecological impact on biota, and prevention efforts in the school environment. This activity succeeded in raising ecological awareness and encouraging concrete actions such as sorting waste, reducing single-use plastics, and maintaining a clean environment. This program has proven effective in fostering environmental awareness from an early age.
