Indonesia declares itself as a country-oriented towards sustainable development. However, sustainable development goals are not clearly realized in every government policy, particularly on the environmental issue. This problem invites the important question of how Indonesia realizes or constructs public policy regarding waste problems. This paper aims to examine Indonesian public policies, both initiated by the community (informal policy) and government programs (formal policy). Based on the review of the amount of data and literature, this paper finds two arguments. First, the objectives of sustainable development are substantially stated in the Indonesian regulations. This legal policy is a government action in fulfilling citizens' rights regarding the good environment as guaranteed in the Constitution of the Republic of Indonesia. However, this formal policy has not been implemented proportionally. Second, the inefficiency of formal policy is actually patched by informal policies such as policy on personal drinking bottles, policy on the use of organic packing and shopping bags, etc. Nevertheless, in reality, the waste problem in Indonesia is far from what have been expected and still requires more sophisticated solutions both in the formal and informal sectors.
Environment is an essential element of life. The domain offers a variety of advantages and functions for humans to carry out activities and reside there. This is normative legal research using secondary sources. According to the study's findings, environmental law enforcement can be conducted both punitively and preventatively, depending on its effectiveness and nature. The lack of coordination between sectors (government officials), the absence of a monitoring plan, and the lack of environmental supervisors are obstacles to ecological monitoring.
Madagascar is a country rich in biodiversity. For decades, this biodiversity had already been under pressure due to deforestation. In 2009, Madagascar entered an unprecedented political crisis. The country fell into a chasm; poverty has increased and illegal exploitation of rosewood (Dalbergia. spp) deepened further. Thus, thousands of tons of rosewood were operated illegally, and national parks (NPs) such as Marojejy and Masoala have become major victims of such activity. In this present article, we discussed and analyzed the factors driving illegal logging of rosewood in those NPs whether the forest legislation and management are partly responsible or not regarding the illegal logging operated inside the World Heritage. Also it made proposals on what could prove to be the solution to protect national parks from illegal exploitation.
Lingkungan hidup merupakan kesatuan ruang dengan semua benda,daya,keadaan dan makhluk hidup termasuk manusia dan juga perilakunya yang mempengaruhi kelangsungan kehidupan serta kesejahteraan manusia dan makhluk hidup lain yang terdapat di dalamnya.
