Abstract

One of the uses of space stated in Law Number 26 of 2007 concerning Spatial Planning is Green Open Space (RTH). This law requires that each district/city have a green open space area of at least 30% of the entire regional area. Ponorogo Regency is one of the districts in East Java Province which has an area of 137,178 Ha. This research will discuss the suitability of the green open space owned by Ponorogo Regency to Law Number 26 of 2007 concerning spatial planning and the potential for developing green open space in the Ponorogo Regency area. This article uses normative research methods with a positive legal approach and an approach using statistical data. The result is that Ponorogo Regency has not yet reached the minimum green open space limit of 30% because it is still at 19%. However, Ponorogo Regency has ambitions with the existence of Regional Regulation Number 1 of 2012 concerning RTRW 2012-2032 which states that the minimum limit of 30% RTH will be achieved in 2032. For the potential for developing RTH areas, Ponorogo Regency has three places, namely roads, river routes and mining areas.

Abstract

This study delves into the legal frameworks governing mineral and coal mining operations, focusing on their implications for community welfare through the prism of environmental ethics. Through qualitative research methods with a normative juridical approach, this research scrutinizes the transition from Law Number 4 of 2009 to Law Number 3 of 2020 and evaluates the juridical ramifications of the latter on societal well-being. Drawing on data from library research, legal document analysis, and stakeholder interviews, including perspectives from entities such as Jatam and PT Selo Argodedali, the study offers insights into divergent opinions regarding the efficacy of the legislative revisions. Findings indicate discord between mining entities and communities, with the former advocating for regulatory revisions while the latter perceive losses due to mining activities. Moreover, the study critiques the 2020 Minerba Law for its perceived neglect of environmental ethics, prioritizing exploitative practices over environmental preservation. Ultimately, this research underscores the imperative for legal policies to uphold community welfare in harmony with environmental ethics, as mandated by constitutional provisions.

Abstract

Currently, Indonesia is grappling with serious environmental issues exacerbated by a lack of public awareness and law enforcement. Law enforcement is crucial in addressing environmental problems, necessitating the use of coercive legal instruments such as criminal sanctions. The primary legal framework governing environmental protection and management in Indonesia is Law Number 32 of 2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management and several amendments to Law Number 6 of 2023 concerning the Ratification of Government Regulation Number 2 of 2022 concerning Job Creation. This article focuses on the changes in criminal sanctions and how these changes occurred by comparing the two aforementioned laws and analyzing them. The results indicate that five articles concerning criminal sanctions have been amended or repealed. This is because four out of the five articles have been simplified for administrative purposes and to avoid legal ambiguities, while one of the five articles cannot be determined due to changes resulting in legal nullity.

Abstract

This paper critically examines Indonesia's application of the Polluter Pays Principle (PPP), revealing a troubling trend where economic interests often trump environmental responsibility. Through an in-depth analysis of case studies and regulatory frameworks, it exposes instances where corporations prioritize profits at the expense of environmental protection, exploiting regulatory loopholes and evading accountability for pollution. Drawing attention to the inherent tensions between economic development and environmental sustainability, the paper highlights the inadequacies in Indonesia's enforcement of the PPP.

Furthermore, the paper interrogates the implications of prioritizing profits over the planet, including the degradation of ecosystems, loss of biodiversity, and adverse impacts on public health and livelihoods. It underscores the urgent need for systemic reforms to align Indonesia's economic agenda with environmental imperatives, promoting a more balanced approach that prioritizes the planet alongside profits. In conclusion, the paper calls for a paradigm shift in Indonesia's application of the PPP, emphasizing the importance of robust regulations, transparent enforcement mechanisms, and corporate accountability measures. It advocates for a holistic approach that integrates environmental considerations into economic decision-making processes, safeguarding Indonesia's natural heritage for future generations while ensuring sustainable development and prosperity.

Abstract

This paper delves into the implementation of environmental pollution and damage prevention instruments in Indonesia, highlighting the inherent issues and challenges. It scrutinizes the efficacy of existing measures in curbing environmental degradation and explores the obstacles hindering their successful execution. The findings underscore a myriad of challenges confronting the implementation process, ranging from regulatory gaps and enforcement deficiencies to institutional capacity constraints. Despite the presence of legislation aimed at safeguarding the environment, enforcement mechanisms often fall short due to inadequate resources, corruption, and lack of coordination among relevant stakeholders. Additionally, the complexity of environmental issues, coupled with rapid industrialization and urbanization, exacerbates the challenges faced in mitigating pollution and preserving natural resources. Addressing these challenges necessitates a multi-faceted approach that encompasses legislative reforms, capacity building initiatives, and enhanced collaboration between government agencies, civil society, and the private sector. Strengthening regulatory frameworks, improving monitoring and enforcement mechanisms, and promoting public awareness are crucial steps towards achieving sustainable environmental management in Indonesia. Moreover, integrating environmental considerations into broader policy agendas and fostering international cooperation are vital for addressing cross-border environmental challenges and ensuring long-term environmental sustainability. In conclusion, while Indonesia has made strides in formulating environmental policies, effective implementation remains a pressing issue. By identifying and addressing the challenges impeding the execution of pollution prevention instruments, Indonesia can bolster its environmental governance framework and pave the way for a greener and more sustainable future.
