The method used in this study is a normative research method with a conceptual approach, statutory approach, conceptual approach, comparative approach, and analytical approach. The results of this study indicate that there has been massive forest destruction, for this reason the application of the concept of ecological justice in forest management on Sumbawa Island still needs to be implemented massively. This departs from the fact that massive forest destruction (natural exploitation) and/or environmental damage continues to occur, but an effective settlement of environmental cases has not yet been found. Likewise with the forest utilization policy on Sumbawa Island which still really needs a concrete role from the government and also the regional government of NTB .

As the government as the guardian and/or executor of the law on the protection and management of the environment provides a sense of fairness in managing the environment.
