Abstract

Illegal dumping represents a critical environmental and public health challenge in Indonesia, exacerbated by rapid urbanization, inadequate waste management infrastructure, and socio-cultural attitudes toward waste disposal. This study employs a descriptive literature review methodology to analyze illegal dumping trends over the past decade, synthesizing data from peer-reviewed articles, government reports, and case studies. Findings reveal the proliferation of unauthorized dumpsites, particularly in urban areas, alongside the increasing prevalence of plastic waste as a dominant component. Socio-economic factors such as poverty, limited access to formal waste management systems, and insufficient public awareness are identified as key drivers of this issue. Illegal dumping causes significant environmental degradation, including water contamination and ecosystem disruption, and poses substantial health risks through exposure to hazardous materials and vector-borne diseases. This research underscores the necessity for integrated interventions, highlighting the need for a comprehensive and multi-faceted approach to effectively tackle illegal dumping. Specifically, this entails strengthening regulatory frameworks, enhancing enforcement mechanisms, promoting community engagement, leveraging technological innovations, and making substantial investments in the strategic development of waste management infrastructure.

Abstract

Indonesia is an archipelagic country consisting of more than 17,500 islands. Urbanization and community agglomeration in urban areas in Indonesia are increasing the complexity of solid waste management in Indonesia. The old paradigm of 'collect-transport-disposal' waste management still occurs frequently in cities in Indonesia. This research is designed to be a systematic qualitative review. The relationships between good environmental governance and sustainable solid waste management are synthesized from a perspective of current conditions in Indonesia. The solution to sustainable waste management is generally carried out through well-organized waste management in an integrated manner from upstream to downstream with a 'cradle-to-grave' mindset, including the impacts that may arise therein. Implementing sustainable solid waste management requires commitment and support from all aspects of stakeholders. Good environmental governance is a comprehensive, dynamic, and complex concept that attempts to improve environmental conditions while promoting sustainable solid waste management. The results show that good environmental governance is very influential for sustainable solid waste management, but it still needs to be implemented optimally in Indonesia. Integration and synchronization of policies between the central government and local government must be further improved to implement good environmental governance.

Abstract

A significant amount of global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions comes from Indonesia, largely driven by deforestation and land degradation. As a developing nation, it is also dealing with the growing pressures of urban expansion. This study assesses the distribution of carbon stock in Parepare City, South Sulawesi, Indonesia. Notably, Parepare City has not yet experienced extensive land-use transformations, retaining substantial carbon stock, which positions it as a proactive case study for preventing future carbon loss amidst ongoing urbanization. Using the InVEST Carbon Storage and Sequestration model with SPOT 7 satellite imagery (2016) and global carbon density data, the research quantifies carbon storage across various land use/land cover (LULC) types. Analysis reveals natural ecosystems, particularly mixed forests and fields, hold the highest carbon storage potential. The total estimated carbon stock in Parepare City is 1,456,909.41 Mg C. These findings emphasize the urgent need for climate-responsive land management, including forest conservation, and urban greening, to enhance local carbon sinks and support Indonesia's climate change mitigation goals. This assessment provides crucial insights for urban planners and policymakers to balance growth with ecosystem conservation for a susta00inable future.
