Implementation of Educational Signs on Waste Decomposition to Promote Environmentally Conscious Behavior Among the Public
Abstract
The issue of waste remains a challenge in maintaining environmental cleanliness and sustainability, partly due to the public’s limited knowledge regarding the decomposition times of various types of waste. This community service activity aims to raise public awareness through the creation of educational signs on waste decomposition in RT 08, Sawah Lebar Baru Village, Ratu Agung Subdistrict, Bengkulu City. The implementation methods included field observations, the design of the educational signs, the production and installation of the signs, and outreach to the community. The educational signs contain information on the types of waste and their estimated decomposition times, presented in a way that is easy for the community to understand. The results of the activity show that the educational signs were successfully installed in strategic locations and received a positive response from the community as an easily accessible source of information.
