Penanaman Bibit Mangrove Guna Mengurangi Dampak Lingkungan di Pantai Tirang Semarang

Abstract

This community service activity aims to plant mangrove tree seedlings that are expected to be used as pollutant absorbers and prevent seawater abrasion, educational facilities, carbon storage, and coastal tourism. The method used is by conducting lectures and direct practice by planting mangrove tree seedlings. This service activity is carried out in several stages including observation, coordination, execution, and evaluation. Observations were made by coming to Tirang Beach to determine the location for planting mangrove seedlings. tirang beach was chosen due to beach abrasion due to rising seawater and abrasion. The coordination stage is carried out by the community service team together with the Tirang beach manager. The aim is to coordinate so that community service activities can run smoothly and on target. The execution was carried out by planting mangrove tree seedlings on the beach, especially those affected by abrasion. While the evaluation is by looking at the deficiencies that were carried out during community service activities. The activity of planting mangrove trees is beneficial for increasing public awareness of environmental concerns by planting trees and for reducing greenhouse gas emissions so as to reduce impact global warming.

“…Explains that the level of public knowledge about mangrove forest conservation in in Marunda Jakarta Utara, is classified as in the high category, with an average total score of 2.83. There are two highest indicators, namely knowing that by preserving mangrove forests it can prevent abrasion and sea waves and knowing the functions and benefits both ecologically and economically in mangrove plants, so it needs to be preserved with a score of 2.95 each, this is because the community already have a high awareness of preserving mangrove forests which can prevent abrasion and sea waves as well as ecological functions where ecosystems are maintained so as to increase crab and fish populations and function economically the community uses mangrove forest wood to make charcoal and then sells it to meet household needs (Kundori et al, 2022) . then the second high indicator, knowing that by preserving mangrove forests, replanting is carried out in damaged areas with a score of 2.92, this is a concern for the community in damaged mangrove areas to replant with the aim of preserving mangrove forests.…”

“…The condition of mangrove forests at this time tends to change its function into ponds, housing, industry and is also not maintained for various reasons and interests. As for this planting activity, there are many techniques, one of which is using the mound technique, namely the planting technique with waterlogged land so that the plants do not rot quickly or the plant growth rate is higher (Kundori et al, 2022).…”
