“…According to previous studies, the distribution of microplastic in marine sediments depends on the beach morphology, ocean hydrodynamic forces, physical characteristics, and environmental factors (Graca et al, 2017;Naji et al, 2017;Zhang, 2017;Pinheiro et al, 2019;Purba et al, 2020;Thepwilai et al, 2021;Faizal et al, 2022). Beach sediment is prone to the deposition of microplastic because it receives direct contact with human activities (Mauludy et al, 2019;Castro et al, 2020;Yona et al, 2020a).…”

Highlight Research This is the first study of microplastics in four beach sediments in the east part of Java Island. Bahak and Pesona Beach are connected to Java Sea (north part), while Tambak Rejo and Balekambang Beach are connected to Indian Ocean (south part). A higher microplastics were observed on the beaches of the north part compared to the south part. Local sources and oceanographic parameters of the beaches influence the presence of microplastics in the study areas. Abstract Microplastic pollution in beach sediments has been studied intensively worldwide, but there are limited studies in the beach areas of the eastern Java Island, Indonesia. This study aimed to identify the distribution of microplastic in four beaches in Indonesia: Bahak, Pesona, Tambakrejo, and Balekambang. The first two beaches are located in the north of Java Island and influenced by the east Java Sea, while the last two are located in the south and influenced by the Indian Ocean. Sediment samples were collected along the strandline inside the 1 × 1 m transect quadrate in the top 5 cm using a stainless-steel shovel. Microplastic and granulometry analyses were conducted to obtain microplastic and sediment grain size data, respectively. Physical parameters of the beaches, such as wind, wave, and ocean current, were calculated using Copernicus and NASA (PODAAC), respectively. The total abundance of microplastic ranged from 54.7 ± 48.6 to 103.3 ± 4.7 particles kg-1 with the following descending order: Bahak > Pesona > Tambakrejo > Balekambang. Although there was no statistically significant difference in microplastic concentrations among the beaches, the beaches connected to the Java Sea accumulated more microplastics than the ones connected to the Indian Ocean. Fiber and blue were the dominating type and colors of microplastic. The results confirm that the distribution of microplastic is associated with the morphology of the beaches and the local source.

“…Bekasi Regency is one of the areas in Indonesia which is prone to generating enormous amount of plastic marine debris (Faizal et al, 2022;Sakti et al, 2021). Bekasi Regency is located directly adjacent to the sea with a coastline of 72 km which borders its land area to the Java Sea.…”

Abstrak: Sebuah kegiatan edukasi lingkungan berbasis permainan bagi Generasi Alpha telah dilaksanakan. Kegiatan ini bertujuan menumbuhkan kesadaran lingkungan pada anak-anak usia dini, sekaligus memberi ruang bagi mahasiswa Teknik Lingkungan Universitas Presiden dalam menginternalisasi nilai-nilai luhur Pancasila dalam konteks penyelamatan lingkungan. Mitra kegiatan ini adalah sebuah panti asuhan di Kabupaten Bekasi yang mengasuh 30 anak-anak generasi Alpha. Metode yang digunakan meliputi edukasi mengenai isu lingkungan dari limbah plastik, praktik aksi nyata dalam bantuk kreasi kriya dari plastik bekas pakai dan penanaman nilai-nilai Pancasila terkait gotong royong untuk menjaga lingkungan. Evaluasi dilakukan dengan cara memberikan quis impromptu di akhir kegiatan yang mengukur pemahaman peserta mengenai pemahaman dampak lingkungan dari sampah plastik, kesadaran untuk menjaga lingkungan dari cemaran plastik dan keterampilan dalam mengolah sampah plastik. Hasil evaluasi menunjukkan bahwa 100% mitra peserta kegiatan mendapatkan peningkatan pemahaman, kesadaran dan keterampilan terkait pengelolaan sampah plastik.Abstract: An educational activity to raise environmental awareness for Generation Alpha has been carried out. This activity aims to foster environmental awareness in young children, as well as providing space for Environmental Engineering students at President University to practice the noble values of Pancasila in the context of saving the environment. The partner for this activity is an orphanage in Bekasi Regency which cares for 30 children of generation Alpha. The methods used include education about the environmental issue of plastic waste and real action practices in creating crafts from used plastic which are framed within the framework of Pancasila values. Evaluation is carried out by giving an impromptu quiz at the end of the activity to measures participants' understanding of the environmental impact of plastic waste, awareness of protecting the environment from plastic pollution and practical skill in processing plastic waste. The evaluation results show that 100% of activity participants have increased understanding, awareness and skills related to plastic waste management.
