Rapid population growth in Indonesia impacts increasing the amount of waste or household waste. Based on data from the Ministry of Environment and Forestry that in 2020, the total national waste production will reach 67.8 million tons/year. In 2021, Bogor City will produce 673.76 tons of waste/day. One of the efforts that can be made to encourage community participation in waste reduction and management is through the Waste Bank program. This study aims to analyze the implementation of the ASYIK 19 Waste Bank based on interviews, document reviews, and field observations. This study used a qualitative approach carried out on November 14th, 2021, at the ASYIK 19 Waste Bank. The appointment of informants used a purposive sampling technique. The study results found that there are still aspects in buildings and waste bank management systems that have not complied with Minister of Environment Regulation No. 13 of 2012. Waste saved to the ASYIK 19 Waste Bank is grouped into five categories based on the type of waste. The working mechanism of the ASYIK 19 Waste Bank consists of registration, waste saving, weighing, recording, selling waste to collectors, and withdrawing savings funds from customers. The highest amount of waste saved occurred in August of Rp. 1,782,150. In addition, sales of waste to collectors in October increased by Rp. 2,121,677. The ASYIK 19 Waste Bank has helped the community around Bojonggede in economic income and proper and correct waste management. However, several aspects of the operation of the ASYIK 19 Waste Bank have not met the applicable waste bank requirements.
Plastic waste is a world problem that has not been solved until now. Indonesia produces national waste reaching 68.5 tons in 2021; as much as 17% or around 11.6 million tons is plastic waste. This study aimed to determine the relationship, attitudes, availability, and janitors with community behavior in plastic waste management in Pancoran Mas Depok District in 2022. Quantitative research method with cross-sectional research design are applied in this study. The population in this study is the entire community in the Pancoran Mas District, Depok. The sampling technique was carried out by nonprobability sampling and obtained as many as 117 samples divided into 6 villages. The data used are primary data distributed through questionnaires. Data analysis was performed univariate and bivariate with a chi-square test. The results showed that there was no relationship between knowledge and pvalue = 0.094 (p> 0.05), there was a relationship between attitude and p-value = 0.020 and OR = 2.662, there was a relationship between the availability of facilities p value = 0.000 and OR=12,473, and there is no relationship between cleaning staff with p value=0.631 (p>0.05) with community behavior in managing plastic waste during the COVID-19 pandemic in Pancoran Mas District, Depok. The knowledge and cleanliness of the community in Pancoran Mas Subdistrict, Depok City, is good, so it has nothing to do with plastic waste management behavior. However, there are still some people who have poor attitudes and the availability of facilities, so there is a relationship between attitudes and availability of facilities with the behavior of plastic waste managers in Pancoran Mas District, Depok City.
