Abstract
This article aims to provide an alternative to one of the problems related to environmental sustainability. Garbage is an important problem that can destroy the balance of environmental ecosystems. Based on Bappenas calculations in the Indonesian infrastructure book in 1995, it is estimated that waste generation in Indonesia is 22.5 million tons and will more than double in 2020 to 53.7 million tons. It is a special challenge for Indonesia to find new efforts that are able to meet the needs of food, energy, transportation, community psychology that can minimize all negative impacts on the earth. The implementation of 3R or reuse, reduce and recycle waste is one of the best programs in the context of environmental conservation because it prioritizes the handling of waste from its source. This challenge must be answered by development in various fields with a sustainable approach. The planting of sustainable values must be introduced from an early age, one way is by introducing ESD (education for sustainable development) in schools, with the hope that students will have sustainable values so that they are able to preserve the natural, social and cultural environment.
