The research is examines the local wisdom values of Sak Uwong Sak Uwit as environmental protection in the context of local regulation. After the issuance of the regulation, of course it must be understood how the implementation of the regulation and how to supervise the implementation of this policy in Pegandon Village, Pegandon District, Kendal Regency. This research is a sociological juridical research with a qualitative approach, with research locations in Kendal District Community and Village Empowerment Agency and Pegandon Village. The technique of checking the validity of the data uses source triangulation and technique triangulation techniques. Analysis of the data used is an interactive analysis model. This study concluded that, first, in Pegandon Village running the program of Sak Uwong Sak Uwit (SUSU) or One Man One Tree was only at the beginning of the year, because of its lack of approval by the people who had to bear the burden of costs, non-existent planting land and management of unclear results. Then, the second shows that the lack of seriousness of the Regional Government in terms of guidance and supervision of this program has an impact on the Implementation of the Sak Uwong Sak Uwit (SUSU) Local Regulation.

“…Одной из особенностей научных исследований экологического сознания как отечественных, так и зарубежных ученых является амбивалентность их выводов. Так, в одних изысканиях отмечается, что во всем мире растет уровень экологического сознания (Weng, Hsu, & Liu, 2019), в то же время в других работах, напротив, обращается внимание на низкий уровень готовности населения к деятельности по улучшению экологической ситуации и пассивность экологического сознания (Florova, 2016;. При этом общие выводы во всех работах ориентированы на воспитание гражданского ответственного отношения к природе.…”

The article considers the issues of ecological education of schoolchildren, in particular, the development of environmental awareness and environmental competence. An analysis of theoretical and applied research led the authors to conclude that the concept of environmental consciousness and the environmental competence developed on the basis of that competence are incomplete. It lacks an element that reflects the safety of the subject of environmental activity. Foreign concepts of ecological consciousness are critically evaluated, including as a necessary element of such consciousness a “guilt complex” for former non-ecological behavior. The paper demonstrates the harm of such concepts to the psychological health of the student. It shows empirically that the problem of the safety of environmental actors is especially relevant for schoolchildren. Lacking sufficient environmental competence in the field of hygiene and hazard assessment of household waste, survey data shows that they are unprotected in environmental terms. The paper concludes that modern environmental education programs should include, as a necessary element, provisions on reasonable prohibitions on environmental activities. Sections on teaching safe behavior when participating in environmental activities should also be included in environmental education programs for schoolchildren.

This study aimed to reduce the holistic environmental impacts of insulation materials proposed for the accommodation of a marine cargo ship, and suggest the optimal option for cleaner ship production, using life cycle assessment. With a commercial bulk carrier as a case ship, three major insulations were assessed, which were wool-based material (mineral wool or glass wool), expanded polystyrene, and polyurethane foam. The analysis was scoped based on ‘from cradle to grave’, while focusing on the following five representative environmental indicators: global warming potential100years, acidification potential, eutrophication potential, ozone depletion potential, and human toxicity potential. The assessment was performed in the platform of the GaBi software. The results showed that polyurethane foam would have the greatest impacts, especially in regard to global warming, eutrophication, and human toxicity. On the other hand, expanded polystyrene and wool-based material showed better environmental performance than polyurethane foam. For example, wool-based insulation was found, in terms of GWP and HTP, to produce 2.1 × 104 kg CO2-eq and 760.1 kg DCB-eq, respectively, and expanded polystyrene had similar results with respect to GWP, AP, and EP as 2.1 × 104 kg CO2-eq, 23.3 kg SO2-eq, and 2.7 kg Phosphate-eq, respectively. In fact, the research findings point out the shortcomings of current design practices in selecting insulation materials for marine vessels, while providing meaningful insights into the importance of the selection of appropriate insulation materials for marine vessels for cleaner shipping. Therefore, it is believed that this paper will make a sound contribution to enhancing future design practice and regulatory frameworks in response to environmental issues in the marine industry.
