Abstract

Plastics are widely distributed across organisms of various trophic levels and in terrestrial, freshwater, marine, and other environments. Recently, plastics have emerged as significant environmental pollutants, attracting public concern. This systematic literature review identifies sources of plastic waste, including food packaging, household hazardous waste, and wood waste, highlighting their detrimental impacts on water bodies, environmental health, and animal life. Analytical techniques such as Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy (AAS), and Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) are essential for detecting and quantifying plastic pollutants. Prevention strategies, including source reduction, public awareness campaigns, legislative measures, and the implementation of pollution control techniques, are crucial in mitigating plastic waste in water bodies. Future research should focus on developing innovative materials and sustainable alternatives to plastics, enhancing waste management infrastructure, and fostering global collaboration to address the plastic pollution crisis effectively.

Abstract

Heavy metal pollution not only affects the environment but also the behavior of people who are greatly dependent on their surrounding environment for their survival. There are both natural and anthropogenic sources of heavy metals but their pollution by manmade activities are quite faster than natural sources. A person gets exposed to heavy metals by four major exposure pathways i.e. inhalation, ingestion, dermal exposure and injection. After exposure to heavy metals, internal normal body functions of an individual gets disturbed. This in turn alters the human behavior from normal to an abnormal state. Various behavioral changes are associated with heavy metals exposure such as depression, anxiety, irregular heartbeats, stress, decrease in strength and power, lack of confidence, restlessness, lack of tolerance and aggressions among the individuals and the society as a whole. This review entails the information regarding sources of heavy metals, exposure pathways and health effects of heavy metals resulting in behavioral changes in humans.

Abstract

Agriculture in Indonesia faces major challenges in terms of sustainability and productivity, especially with the high dependence on chemical fertilizers that can damage the soil in the long run. This study aims to determine the impact of chemical fertilizer substitution with MOL organic fertilizer on rice productivity in Village X, East Java. This research used a quantitative approach with a comparative case study. Data were collected during one rice growing season from two treatment groups using different fertilizers. Primary data were obtained through field observation, direct measurement, and sample analysis, while secondary data were collected from village reports and previous studies. Data analysis was conducted using descriptive statistics and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The results showed that chemical fertilizer increased rice productivity higher in the short term than MOL organic fertilizer. Independent T-test results showed significant differences, with chemical fertilizers producing significantly higher yields (t-value 12.45, p-value 2.306). However, the use of chemical fertilizers negatively impacts soil quality and the environment in the long run. In contrast, MOL organic fertilizer improved soil quality despite lower yields. SEM analysis showed that the substitution of chemical fertilizer with MOL organic fertilizer had a significant effect but with a smaller estimated coefficient compared to the use of chemical fertilizer. MOL organic fertilizer provides long-term benefits by improving soil fertility so that to achieve high production and protect the environment, a combination of using chemical fertilizers at optimal doses and gradually using organic fertilizers is highly recommended to support sustainable agriculture.

Abstract

Bener Meriah Regency is known for its significant agricultural and plantation potential, particularly in horticultural commodities like vegetables and fruits. Arabica coffee is the primary crop, with 39,702 hectares dedicated to its cultivation. Cocoa has notable development potential, and locals in Pintu Rime Gayo District have begun cultivating it without scientific guidance. The study aimed to determine suitable areas for cocoa development using economic and land evaluation systems. The quantitative economic analysis included indicators such as Gross Margin (GM), Benefit-Cost Ratio (BCR), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), and Net Present Value (NPV). Land suitability was assessed by comparing the agricultural needs of cocoa with the area's land characteristics. The study found that the land in Pintu Rime Gayo is generally marginally suitable (S3) or not suitable (N) for cocoa. Several limiting factors for the development of cocoa commodities that can be identified in the analysis process are water availability (wa), rooting media (rc), nutrient availability (na), flood hazard (fh), and erosion hazard (eh). Financially, the price of dry cocoa beans is IDR 8,650 per kilogram, with a gross margin of IDR 1,652,922 per hectare per year and a BCR of 0.93, indicating that each unit of capital yields 0.93 times its value in revenue. The IRR was 15.33%, and the NPV was 684,848.
