Abstract

Earth is on the verge of rising temperatures above 1.5˚ Celsius. Passing the limit of 1.5˚ Celsius is a significant risk in living on earth as it will increase the risks of natural disasters such as drought, flood, and storm. With forests capable of absorbing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, the need for forest conservation areas is increasing to keep the earth's temperature below 1.5˚ Celsius. The increase in demand is facing hurdles from its financial sustainability, as well as the stakeholder's paradigm, which is still seen as a forest from a direct economic perspective. Market-based initiatives (MBI) are a concept that incentivizes stakeholders in their efforts to preserve nature. While many debates exist, it has become a significant strategy to reduce GHG emissions in many countries. With MBI's implementation, there is expected to be a paradigm shift in forestry business stakeholders from extraction to conserving nature. This research focuses on MBI's implementation in the Indonesian forestry business market through literature and in-depth discussions with MBI's market actors and stakeholders. This research also emphasizes the utilization of preference theory to analyze the significant criteria influencing business decision-maker preference. Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) was used to find the most preferable MBI's on Indonesia's market, and criteria derived the preference. The findings revealed that among the criteria, there were three main criteria impacting business preference over MBIs: market potential (0.476), business goal (0.146), and business experience (0.171). Carbon trading (0.572) is deemed the most preferable MBI alternative, with an overall AHP analysis consistency ratio of 0.02. This research contributes as a basis for future research in other countries on the business preference on market-based conservation.

Abstract

Global warming causes extreme weather and seawater levels to rise. Long-term climate change prediction has been done in various fields, including disaster management. It forced people to adapt to the consequences of climate change in coastal areas. Mitigation and adaptation are complementing each other in addressing climate change risks. Climate change mitigation supports essential aspects of sustainable development, specifically related to the UN Sustainable Development Goals on climate action (SDG13) and disaster risk reduction (SDG11). Making the community sustainable in a disaster is one of the ways to do this. Community sustainable development can be used to mitigate and adapt to climate change. This study aims to determine the potential of the community to become a sustainable community as an act of mitigation. The assessment in this research applies spatial statistics, which define spatial trends regionally by using the Z-score method to determine four equally essential indicators. Four indicators of a sustainable community are every sub-district's economic, social, environmental, and institutional conditions. The result shows that the Tanjungjaya sub-district has the most potential to be a sustainable community as it has high potential in economic, environmental, and institutional indicators. The lowest potential area is the Gombong sub- district. It has low potential in social, environmental, and institutional indicators. By knowing which indicators have higher values, sustainable community development in regions can be carried out by utilizing these indicators to improve other indicators. It can be concluded that the Tanjungjaya sub-district can lead the way to developing a sustainable community, followed by Mekarsari, Citeureup, Panimbangjaya, Mekarjaya, and Gombong sub-district. This research highlights future research should be done by reckoning this research method as a foundation for assessing sustainable development.

Abstract

The plastic packaging industry has become a significant commodity that penetrates almost every aspect of our lives, requiring greater responsibility from the industry for the life cycle management of their products. Several study methodologies are available to measure the industry's environmental impact, with life cycle analysis (LCA) gaining traction in Indonesia. Therefore, this study aims to measure the environmental impact of the plastic packaging industry analyzed using LCA with a focus on the main potential impact categories of global warming, acidification of the earth, toxicity to humans, formation of photochemical oxidants, and fossil depletion, within the scope of cradle to gate which was analyzed using SimaPro software. This research compares with previous research conducted in several countries (such as Poland, Qatar, and France) that conducted LCA on the plastic packaging industry. The results from Bogor, West Java, Indonesia, showed that the increase in the amount of plastic packaging produced contributes to environmental impact. Comparative studies reveal that the environmental impact is influenced by factors such as the quantity of recycled materials, the number of circularity cycles, and waste management strategies. Future LCA studies should also aim to refine inventory data, delving into greater detail for each unit of the process. This will yield more precise insights into the overall environmental impact of the process.

Abstract

The current trend in nature tourism has led to increased tourist visits to coastal areas, including destinations prone to disasters and previously exposed to tsunamis. This research, which aims to analyze the variables influencing tourists' desire to revisit disaster-prone areas, addresses a crucial and timely topic in tourism and disaster management. The research utilized a quantitative approach through a questionnaire-based survey of domestic tourists visiting the Pangandaran Beach Area in West Java, known for its susceptibility to tsunami disasters. The study involved 307 respondents who completed questionnaires between June and July 2023. Data analysis employed Partial Least Square – Structural Equation Model (PLS-SEM) analysis. The findings indicate a moderate level of association among the variables studied, with an R2 coefficient of 0.521. This suggests that destination image, risk perception, regional attractiveness, and knowledge of disaster risks collectively influence tourists' intentions to revisit. Notably, the variable "knowledge" did not significantly impact destination image and revisit intention but did influence risk perception. Additionally, risk perception was identified as a determinant influencing tourists' decisions to revisit Pangandaran. The research underscores the critical role of risk perception in influencing tourists' behavior in disaster-prone areas. This research highlights educating tourists about disaster risks and integrating individual factors in planning, as both influence revisits to disaster-prone destinations.

Abstract

Small-scale fisherfolks contributed to the livelihood and economic aspects of the fishery sector in the region. However, they are vulnerable regarding potential risks and threats caused by various conditions. This study explored the vulnerability of fifty-two small-scale fisherfolks selected from six barangays near Laguna's Northern West Bay, Philippines. The case study design guided the data collection from multiple sources, including survey questionnaires, unstructured interviews, and document analysis for triangulation and analysis of fisherfolks' exposure, sensitivity, and adaptive capacity. Results show that there are indicators that contribute to the vulnerability of fisherfolk in terms of exposure, which involves hydrometeorological hazards, water quality, and biological indicators; Sensitivity, which involves the type of fish, fish consumption, family size, number of times fishing, age of fisherfolks, catch rate, gear dependence; and adaptive capacity which involves the health benefits, domestic credits/loans, fishery cooperative, seminar and training, income, educational attainment, alternative livelihoods, boat types, house types, presence of fry fishery, size of fish, mode of communication, presence of infrastructures and fishing experience. There is a need for appropriate interventions and doable programs by the government authorities in addressing the areas that contribute to the high level of vulnerability of fisherfolks for them in return to be able to sustain their means of livelihood and ability to contribute to the industry of fisheries in connection with the indicators of the Sustainable Development Goals. This research highlights the necessity of a systemic approach in assessing the needs of small-scale fisherfolks to help them reduce vulnerability while supporting their industry. Additionally, it recommends a practical framework and scale for assessing the vulnerability of small-scale fisherfolks, along with supporting policies for a long-term strategy to boost this sector.

Abstract

The groundwater status of Northwestern Bangladesh is a complex and challenging issue due to its arid and semi-arid climates, increasing population, overexploitation for domestic and irrigation purposes, lack of adequate rainfall, and limited water resources. The study aimed to assess the suitability and health risk of groundwater quality for drinking purposes. A total of one hundred groundwater samples were collected from shallow tubewells in two seasons, the monsoon (MON) and post-monsoon (POM), in northwestern Bangladesh (Ganges River basin) and analyzed using standard methods of analysis (Atomic adsorption spectrometry, UV-visible spectrometry, graphite, ion chromatography). The trends of predominant cations were Ca2+ > Na+ > Mg2+ > K+, and anions were HCO3− > Cl− > SO42− > NO3− > PO43- in both seasons. The dominant cation and anion are Ca2+ and HCO3−, and the water type of the groundwater was Ca-Mg-HCO3. Contamination of trace metals, including Fe, Mn, and Pb, in the groundwater of the study area follows the trend of Fe > Mn > Pb in two seasons. The study observed that the POM showed a higher concentration of trace metals than the MON season. The results indicated that a higher concentration of Cr, Fe, Mn, Ni, and Pb, as well as the WQI, HMPI, HMEI, and CD posed threats to human health. The quality of the studied samples is poor to undrinkable. The non-carcinogenic risk to human health was not found for both adults and children in both seasons. The study observed that over-extraction, pollution, trace metals, low rainfall, and climate change threaten groundwater quality and availability. The study suggests that groundwater is unfit for human consumption without treatment, particularly for Fe, Mn, and Pb.

Abstract

Massive mask usage during the COVID-19 pandemic has been causing increased mask waste problem. Improper mask management can spread virus in the environment. Proper mask waste management behaviours must be investigated to better understand the underlying factors. Studies have focused on mask waste management in Indonesia, but none have used a comprehensive behavioural framework. This study integrates the Theory of Planned behaviour (TPB) and the Norm Activation Model (NAM) aiming to determine the factors that influence the intentions of Pekanbaru’s residents in managing mask waste. The survey involved 384 respondents selected through a systematic cluster random sampling. The data was analysed with PLS-SEM to verify the model. We hypothesised that awareness of consequences, the ascription of responsibility, subjective and personal norms, attitudes, and perceived behavioural control positively affect behaviour. Attitudes (p < 0.05, t = 2.681), personal norms (p < 0.05, t = 6.708), and perceived behavioral control (p < 0.05, t = 5.846) are also positively and significantly related to mask waste management intention. Awareness of consequences has a significant indirect effect on mask waste management intention through attitude (p < 0.05, t = 2.638), and the highest indirect effects are through ascription of responsibility and personal norms (p < 0.05, t = 4.885). The consequence of awareness, ascription of responsibility, and personal norms are essential elements in enhancing motivations for taking responsibility and participating in household waste management. Demographics such as age and monthly expenses significantly affect mask waste management intentions. This work offers a novel integration of TPB and NAM, which enhances research on the behavioural intents of household mask waste management. Based on the results, the policy implications of how to motivate society to sort waste were discussed, and research limitations were indicated.

Abstract

The examination of sustainability within the textile industry necessitates an exploration of various environmental pollution issues. This study aims to tackle challenges in the synthetic dye industry by reviewing past research on textile dyeing, providing scientific insights, identifying patterns, and highlighting research gaps. It is hypothesized that the cultivation of Indigofera tinctoria with optimized NPK fertilization can significantly enhance its growth and yield, contributing to sustainable natural dye production. Using a mixed-methods approach, this study integrated bibliometric analysis of 1320 Scopus articles with field experiments. The bibliometric analysis, conducted with Vos Viewer software, identifies India and the United States as leaders in textile dye research. Key terms include indigo, indigo carmine, I. tinctoria, and natural dyes. A significant research gap is identified in the cultivation of I. tinctoria, particularly concerning the application of NPK (16:16:16) fertilization. Field experiments analyzed using R-studio demonstrate that NPK significantly increases the fresh weight of I. tinctoria at 11 weeks after planting. Pearson correlation analysis showed a significant correlation between the fresh weight of I. tinctoria on the dry weight of the plants (0.91***) and specific leaf weight (0.60*). These results indicate that advancing research on natural dye indigotin and the cultivation of I. tinctoria plants in the field is highly relevant to addressing research questions concerning the development of natural dye research and the cultivation methods of indigo dye plants in field conditions. NPK fertilization enhances the growth and yield of I. tinctoria, supporting sustainable cultivation in Indonesia. This research contributes to present a viable strategy for promoting sustainable natural dye production and addressing the identified research gap in the cultivation of this important dye-producing species. Future research should focus on optimizing NPK fertilization strategies to maximize yield and sustainability.
