The amount of MSMEs units about 99.99 percent of the overall number of business operators in Indonesia showed that MSMEs play a significant role in economic growth and development. At the same time, MSMEs cumulative contribution to environmental issues is not recorded MSMEs participation in the cleaner environment has not yet been noticed. Thus, the environmental management system for MSMes is crucial. This study is a literature review about the implementation of the ISO 14001 environmental management system in MSMEs, challenges and its future potential. The result and discussion discussed the case study of ISO 14001 implementation in Indonesia and other countries. Case studies from Indonesia and other countries showed that implementation of ISO 14001 is possible for MSMEs. The biggest challenges of its implementation is cost, the competence of employees, and resources available for the organization. An alternative for overcoming these challenges is implementing other models of EMS that is more suitable for MSMEs. The important aspects is the environmental awareness of the stakeholders and the internal and external drivers within the organization. Further studies can be done to research specific case studies of EMS such as ISO 14001 or AMEMs implementation in MSMEs. AbstrakJumlah unit UMKM sekitar 99,99 persen dari keseluruhan jumlah operator bisnis di Indonesia menunjukkan bahwa UMKM memainkan peran penting dalam pertumbuhan dan perkembangan ekonomi. Pada saat yang sama, kontribusi kumulatif UMKM terhadap masalah lingkungan tidak dicatat. Partisipasi UMKM dalam lingkungan yang lebih bersih belum diperhatikan. Dengan demikian, sistem manajemen lingkungan untuk UMKM sangat penting. Studi ini adalah tinjauan literatur tentang penerapan sistem manajemen lingkungan ISO 14001 dalam UMKM, tantangan dan potensi masa depannya. Hasil dan diskusi membahas studi kasus implementasi ISO 14001 di Indonesia dan negara lain. Studi kasus dari Indonesia dan negara lain menunjukkan bahwa penerapan ISO 14001 dimungkinkan untuk UMKM. Tantangan terbesar dari implementasinya adalah biaya, kompetensi karyawan, dan sumber daya yang tersedia untuk organisasi. Alternatif untuk mengatasi tantangan-tantangan ini adalah menerapkan model EMS lain yang lebih cocok untuk UMKM. Aspek penting adalah kesadaran lingkungan dari para pemangku kepentingan dan pendorong internal dan eksternal dalam organisasi. Studi lebih lanjut dapat dilakukan untuk meneliti studi kasus EMS tertentu seperti penerapan ISO 14001 atau AMEM di UMKM.
<p>As the first step to air pollution control and public health protection, Air quality monitoring systems provides information that indicate the extend of pollution in an area, the source of pollution and the types of pollutants. Therefore, the aim of this study is to evaluate Jakarta’s air quality monitoring system by comparing it to the US, which participates in Indonesia’s air quality monitoring system by using their own system. In specific, parameters such as air quality index, monitoring stations, regulation and data availability are to be compared through reviewing various literatures in detail. The result obtained shows that the monitoring station amount is already ideal and complies to the U.S regulation. Indonesia’s ambient air quality standard need to be stricter and Air Pollutant Standard Index should include PM<sub>2.5</sub> as a parameter obtains significantly better results. Air quality data is available and accessible, although it needs to be integrated and provide real time information in a simple and effective way.</p>
Goal 6 of the SDGs has a target for clean water and sanitation, by 2030 the UN has a target of providing universal access to sanitation. Safely managed sanitation can support the progress to supporting socioeconomic development and promoting equality. In developing countries, a majority of the general population does not have access to proper sanitation. Therefore, there are still many challenges faced for sanitation in developing country. Unmanaged sanitation has a negative impact to human health and the environment. In developing countries that has a lot of under developed and rural area, community-based sanitation program is one of the approach for educating and improving sanitation. This study has an objective to evaluate the current implementation of community-based sanitation programs in Indonesia. This study is a literature review that analyzed various sources in a systematical way to evaluate the implementation of community based sanitation programs in Indonesia. In conclusion, the implementation of community based sanitation programs yield a positive impact for the targeted community. The factors that has influence are community involvement, funding and enforcement of sanctions.
In recent years, because of the changes in the environment and an increase in the global population, there is an increase in the threat of water scarcity. Therefore, there a need for developing water supply systems that is sustainable and resilient. Rainwater harvesting (RWH) systems are a decentralized sustainable water supply system that has the potential to be implemented. Industries, as one of the sectors that will be affected, could potentially gain many benefits through the implementation of RWH systems. This paper is a literature review that has the objective of explaining the general concept of RWH systems and understanding several aspects that go into planning a rainwater harvesting system. RWH system is an old concept that has benefits and disadvantages. In planning an RWH system, there are many considerations and calculations. The catchment area, water storage, treatment train needs to be carefully chosen. In some cases of implementation, it has been observed that RWH systems have resulted in water and financial savings. There is much potential for further study of the implementation of RWH systems in industrial settings.
Higher education institutions has a huge population that induces the large consumption of drinking water, the large consumption of electricity, the production of large quantities of garbage, the use of high transport and the rise in the building of facilities. Thus the implementation of Environmental Management System in Unversity Campus is crucial to achieve sustainability campus. This study is a literature review about the implementation of the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System in University campus and its recommendation. The discussion also discussed its implementation in indonesia’s campus as well as in other country campus. The implementation have to be done is start from environmental policy that made by campus adjusting to the ISO 14001 , the environmental management planning , implementation , and assessment for evaluation. Several campus has been implementing environmental management system but still need improvement. Universities should start implementing environmental management practices that promotes sustainable development and protection of the environment. These initiatives can focus on various environmental aspects, depending on the needs and culture of the campus. Although some case studies have shown that the solid waste management is a common aspect that many institutions focus on.
