Abstract

Marine litter surveys can be used to evaluate the effectiveness of policies to prevent litter pollution. This study aims to use land-based marine litter distribution data to evaluate the waste management facilities at Kenjeran Beach, Surabaya. The survey was carried out by systematically dividing 120 m length of the beach into five transects, with each transect having a length of 20 m. The litter was collected from the highest strandline, three times within three weeks. The collected litter was identified by count, weight, density, material, and object category. The waste management facilities at the beach, consisting of waste bins and collection services, were identified by direct observation. Both the litter and waste management facilities data were analyzed to evaluate the effectiveness of the facilities provided. The survey results showed that the northern side of the beach featured a high litter density. The major litter materials collected on each transect were plastic, wood, and cardboard, while the major litter objects were related to food, beverage, packaging, and others. The absence of waste bins on the northern side possibly caused the high land-based marine litter density. In terms of segregation, the waste bins must be segregated by litter material, prioritizing plastic waste, while the waste collection frequency must be increased. Thus, the waste management facilities at Kenjeran were less effective and not data driven. Based on the land-based marine litter survey data, improvements in waste bin segregation and distribution and waste collection frequency are needed.

Abstract

Environmental degradation is a consequence of using resources for economic purposes only. The impact of entrepreneurial activity, especially as industry, deteriorates the environment. University-offered entrepreneurship programs produce entrepreneur that can solve unemployment and low-income problems. By extension, more entrepreneurs will increase business activity and increasingly degrade the environment. The aims of this research were to examine the intentions of university students to become entrepreneurs using personal attitude, subjective norms, and self-efficacy as the driving factors; find the social intention of university students to become entrepreneur using empathy, self-efficacy, and exposure as inspirations; and explain the role of entrepreneurship education can play in environmental sustainability. In this research, the sample was chosen using quantitative methods from a population of President University, Faculty of Business students, Cikarang, West Java. The data collection method was a survey using a questionnaire, assessed by multiple regression data analysis. The results showed that entrepreneurial intention was significantly influenced by personal attitude, subjective norms, self-efficacy, and socioentrepreneurial intention. Internal factors significantly influenced students’ ambitions to become entrepreneurs. In term of environmental sustainability, entrepreneurship education was needed to implement ecopreneurship approach.

Abstract

Destination images are important information for marketing professionals, local planners, and travel bloggers on social media. The rise of social media has allowed more tourists to share their knowledge, emotions, and experiences from their travels. However, despite the popularity of adapting online narratives to destination images, little or no qualitative analysis has been conducted about island’s sustainable tourism development in the Philippines using information from social media. One type of destination are small islands in the Philippines. The examination is worthwhile inasmuch as the literature has been silent on destination images of top island retreats in the country, although there are many negative images of overcrowded and unsustainable resorts posted by both international and local tourists. Method of this research are using data from 83 travel blogs written from January 2013 to February 2018by visitors of Boracay, the current study extracts underlying themes and subthemes relating to visitors’ overall impressions, cultural exchanges, economic development, and environmental changes. It was determined that tourists are interested in the white beaches, breathtaking landscapes, and varieties of activities offered, such as island-hopping and “mermaiding.” There is also evidence that Boracay continues to face issues concerning its sustainability, such as threats on its unfortunate transportation system, losing its cultural identity, uncontrolled urbanization, and unsustainable solid waste management practices. The findings here are useful for local government, small island tourism planners, and service providers in understanding visitor perceptions of quality and value, which in turn have influenced the island’s competitiveness and sustainability.

Abstract

Educational games are essential in explaining theories to students as such activities create a fun learning environment. Most educational games in supply chain management (SCM) are focused on SCM or logistics theories. In the last decades, the research in environmentally conscious SCM has increased. However, the educational games related to such SCM are limited. This work is the first to use the detailed life cycle assessment (LCA) approach in teaching students SCM. The research output is a game called “Robo Factory,” which involves a simulation of a robot production supply chain. The research objective is to educate undergraduate students about the SCM structure, the duties and responsibilities of SCM actors, the LCA approach, and the cost types in SCM and LCA. The paper describes the game design process. The game design entails three steps: (1) game conceptualization and prototype design; (2) prototype trial, evaluation, and finalization of game rules; and (3) final games. Evaluation results indicate that the game successfully teaches undergraduate students about the theory of LCA in SCM in an enjoyable manner. The posttest shows an overall increase in students’ knowledge. The paper presents the future research directions and implications for scholars to enhance their contributions.

Abstract

In developing countries, on average, one out of five children die from pneumonia. Death from pneumonia is most prevalent in Southeast Asia, particularly in Indonesia. Many factors can cause pneumonia. In Jakarta, the prevalence period of pneumonia in toddlers reached 19.6‰, which is higher than the national prevalence period of only 18.5‰. This study used a cross-sectional research design to analyze the relationship between disease prevalence and risk factors simultaneously. Results showed that, out of 721 children under 5 years old investigated in this study, 31 toddlers suffered from pneumonia. Furthermore, bivariate analysis showed that two variables were related to the incidence of pneumonia, namely, low maternal education (odds ratio [OR] = 2.325, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.093–4.946) and living room ventilation10% of the total space because the lack of air circulation induces the transmission of pneumonia.

Abstract

In 2015, Peterongan Market was one of the traditional markets in the city of Semarang which was widely discussed there because of its relocation according to new government sustainable development policy. This study aims to determine the social, cultural, economic, and environmental impacts of that relocation. It follows a qualitative descriptive approach using qualitative data obtained from interviews with various sources such as traders, buyers, and parking attendants, who were most directly affected, as well as field observations and literature studies from various relevant journals and newspapers. Furthermore, qualitative data analysis uses three activity streams in the form of data condensation, presentation, and conclusions. The results of the study show that the environmental aspects of the new market look dirty because it has not been matched by adequate relocation preparations for traders. On the economic side, the lack of preparation of the proposed locations that are more feasible and accessible to buyers will likely cause a loss in trader income. From a sociocultural perspective, the lack of comprehensive justice in the policy has lost profits for traders and buyers even before they have moved. If the policy is balanced with better preparation, the market environment will look neater, cleaner, and more secure. The proposal to relocate the market is an appropriate strategy for supporting sustainable development in the city, but it must be accompanied by better preparations so that it is easy to socialize and is not rejected by the recipient of the policy.

Abstract

Since the middle of the 20th century, pesticide use has been a primary foundation of global agricultural development. However, the massive usage of pesticides can have detrimental impacts on human health and the environment, particularly in the aquatic ecosystem. This study determined the use of pesticides in the agricultural area of the Upper Citarum River Basin (UCRB); a crucial water resource on Java Island. A survey of 174 farmers was conducted in eight districts along the basin by using the random walk and quota sampling method. The questionnaire was designed to acquire data about the amount and types of pesticides used by farmers. Pre-survey was conducted to evaluate the feasibility of the questionnaire draft. The respondents’ answers were inputted into an equation to estimate the pesticide use per year. The survey results showed that 31 different pesticides were used for 21 types of crops. Profenofos and Mancozeb were the two most used pesticides, among all. The highest annual average used per hectare was reported for Chlorothalonil on tomato (32.2 kg/ha/year), followed by Mancozeb on corn (28.6 kg/ha/year), and Chlorpyrifos on chili (26.1 kg/ha/year). Overall, the pesticide use estimation in the study area is relatively high, with an annual average of 24.6 kg/ha/year. A comparison between prescribed and actual use on rice (representing more than 64% of the total surveyed area) showed that most pesticides are used in line with the prescriptions, but about a quarter is used in larger amounts than recommended. This comparison also revealed that some farmers use pesticides for rice that are not recommended for rice farming. In conclusion, the data presented in this study can be used to estimate pesticide emissions for environmental risk assessment and to support water quality monitoring, especially since public accessibility of pesticide information is commonly limited in Indonesia and other low- and middle-income countries.

Abstract

The global pandemic of 2019–2020 is changing not only the lives of citizens, but also approaches to business management. The activities of audit companies have not escaped. Problematic and debatable issues need to be addressed to formulate a comprehensive approach to audits in a transformative economic environment and minimize the global economy's eco-anxiety. The purpose of the article is to determine the role of the audit in minimizing the eco-anxiety of the world economy. The study's materials were indicators of the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic in the world, public writings of scientists, official reports of international organizations, regulations, and among other things. COVID-19 has had a negative impact on the economy. Simultaneously, uncertainty in the economies of countries around the world remains, which has implications for reporting organizations and companies providing audit services in Ukraine and around the world. Given the increasing impact of the coronavirus on the global economy and the resulting high uncertainty, conducting a high-quality audit is critical to ensuring that financial statements are properly informed. In many cases, auditors will need to consider the development of alternative auditing procedures to gather sufficient and appropriate evidence. COVID-19 has been a real shock to the global economy. Audits have become an effective tool to minimize the eco-anxiety of the world economy.

Abstract

Soil salinity, which poses one of the greatest threats to sustainable crop production worldwide, can be ameliorated through various approaches, such as leaching, mulching, and amendment application. The effects of leaching and amendments on saline soil reclamation have been studied separately, but their interaction is poorly elucidated. Therefore, a column experiment was designed with soils that were subjected to leaching with 2 and 4 pore volume (PV) of water and compared with non-leached soils (NLS) to observe the effects of leaching on saline soil and leachate characteristics under different organic (vermicompost [VC] and wood ash [WA]) and inorganic (zeolite) amendments at two different rates (1 and 2 g 100 g−1) and their combinations. Results revealed that the electrical conductivity (EC) of the soil decreased, whereas the EC of the leachate increased as the PV of water increased. Regardless of the treatments, the concentrations of sodium (Na+), potassium (K+), calcium (Ca2+), and magnesium (Mg2+) in the leachate increased. By contrast, their concentrations in the leached soils decreased as the PV of water increased. WA contributed to a significant increase (p < 0.01) in the EC and the concentrations of cations, especially K+ and Ca2+, in the soils and leachates. The higher the rates of the amendment, the greater the increment in the EC and cation concentrations. Incorporating amendments could be important sources of cations, thereby limiting the entry of Na+ into the exchange complex and facilitating leaching with percolating water. The response of spinach (Spinacia oleracea) in terms of yield parameters to 2 PV of leached soils was significantly better than that of NLS, suggesting that soil leaching could significantly influence plant functioning in highly saline soils. This study suggested that the irrigation of saline soils under different organic and inorganic amendments before cultivation might affect salt leaching and soil nutrient dynamics, thereby influencing plant growth and yield.

Abstract

This research aims to analyse the impact of quarrying on the health and perception of neighbouring communities. A standard questionnaire survey was conducted to collect data from quarry neighbours in a residential neighbourhood located in the city of Lavras, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Residences were distributed based on proximity to a quarrying company, resulting in three distances divided by three equally distant radii, named as Area I (closest to the quarrying company at 630 m), Area II (730 m), and Area III (farthest from the quarrying company at 830 m). Data gathered from 177 residents were analysed with logistic regression models. Results indicated significant differences between Areas I and III, and as expected, disturbances decreased as the distance from the quarrying company increased. Area III residents provided the most favourable response to quarrying activities, and the noise was the main complaint in the three areas. The number of residents who complained about noise was 91, 77, and 63% for Areas I, II, and III, respectively. The employed method can be used satisfactorily for neighbourhood impact evaluations, considering personal experiences, human perception, and seasonal effects.
