Edukasi Pengelolaan Sampah Pada Anak Usia Sekolah Dasar Sebagai Upaya Membentuk Generasi Peduli Lingkungan

Elementary school children still have minimal knowledge and concern for waste management. Where many children do not care about what they do, such as littering. Education about waste management must be given to everyone as early as possible, so that children care more about the environment. Community service activities carried out at SDN Kebonsari 2 Cilegon were carried out by conducting initial research related to the conditions of students and the environment of SDN Kebonsari 2 Cilegon, then identifying factors for low awareness of sorting waste to providing education through lecture methods, questions and answers, and discussions and conducting practices. The results of this community service are that students are able to understand the differences between the types of organic, inorganic, and hazardous waste, understand recycling of organic waste, and to recycle inorganic waste into crafts. The awareness and skills of elementary school students are important to be developed so that the younger generation can make a concrete contribution to the cleanliness of the surrounding environment from an early age.
