  Nah, diupdate juga dong; bagaimana pemilahan sampah organik dan unorganik 
yang dulu katanya pernah Bapak gagas dan kabarnya pernah dicoba praktekkan 
bersama bapak-bapak lain di RW 14, terutama mengenai komposting. Apa kendala, 
tantangan dan peluangnya. Di share Pak, agar bisa jadi pelajaran semua. Saya 
copy paste artikel The Jakarta Post hari ini, plus sebuah campaign keranjingan 
tas plastik, siapa tahu berguna. Thx

  Turning plastic trash into valuable products
  ID Nugroho ,  The Jakarta Post ,  Surabaya   |  Tue, 08/05/2008 10:17 AM  |

  Instant noodle wrappers usually end up as landfill, but in the hands of a 
group of housewives in Wonokromo, Surabaya, they can be transformed into 
valuable products.

  The products generate cash and also help clean up the neighborhood and reduce 
the risk of flooding during the rainy season.

  The group's recycling project was initiated by Liestin "Lies" Irsan, whose 
village was one of the dirtiest areas in Wonokromo.

  During a recent visit to her home, Lies' living room was covered in trash, 
mainly plastic waste.

  "The trash is brought to my house by housewives who are members of the 
neighborhood environment cadre," she told The Jakarta Post.

  "It is then sorted and grouped."

  The plastic waste, ranging from instant noodle wrappers, to plastic fabric 
softener containers and straws, is transformed into valuable products including 
handbags, table cloths and photo frames.

  "Many things here, including the sheet on which we're sitting, are made from 
instant noodle wrappers," Lies said.

  The recycling program began in 2005 after 42 Wonokromo residents took part in 
a workshop organized by the Surabaya administration and ESP-USAID. At the time, 
the residents were appointed as environment cadres.

  "The cadres' main task is to raise awareness about reducing the amount of 
neighborhood trash," Lies said.

  With the village located near Surabaya River, Wonokromo residents were 
previously blamed for dumping their trash, and other domestic waste, into the 
river. This gave added impetus to the green program's importance in protecting 
the area's environment as well as preventing floods and the spread of 
waterborne diseases.

  In practice, each environment cadre is responsible for managing trash from 10 
families. Dried trash can be recycled while wet, and toxic waste is taken to a 
landfill site.

  Instant noodle wrappings, straws and used plastic wrappings from fabric 
softener are the most sought-after items, with the remaining plastic waste sold 
to garbage collectors.

  "The wrappings and others are then washed, dried and recycled," Lies said.

  The recycling process is not easy. An instant noodle wrapping is cut into two 
and then folded to hide its brand. The last step is to shave and turn it into a 
plaited sheet.

  "Each wrapping can be turned into a two-centimeter-wide sheet," she said.

  The sheets are then joined together to form one long plastic mat. The sheet 
is then cut up to make patterns for handbags and table cloths.

  A one-meter by 20-centimeter table cloth takes 2,000 noodle wrappers and two 
months to make. A handbag requires between 1,200 and 1,500 wrappers.

  "The most difficult process is to make the sheet from instant noodle. It has 
to be done carefully or it will fall apart during the making process," Lies 
said.

  The easiest items to work with are the fabric softener containers, because 
they come in a bigger size and are more easily formed into wide sheets.

  Drinking straws undergo much simpler process. They are cut into small pieces 
and threaded together. A small handbag requires at least 1,000 straws.

  Through their work, the housewives have inspired many people, and draw 
representatives from cities as far away as Banda Aceh and Jakarta to visit 
Wonokromo to learn the craft.

  A handbag made out of used instant noodle wrapping retails for about Rp 
60,000.

  Despite the relatively high price, the group sometimes fails to meet demand 
because of a shortage of raw materials.

  "Before, it was easy to get the trash. But now it's harder because other 
residents have started to do the same," Lies said.

  In addition to bringing in extra income, the activity has helped free the 
neighborhood from garbage, foul smells and floods.

  "Previously, whenever it rained, our homes would be flooded instantly. But, 
not anymore," Lies said.

  She added apart from handling trash, Wonokromo environment cadres had built a 
"garbage house" -- a place to gather dry trash before turning it into valuable 
products.

  The 15-square-meter shack was built by residents with the money they saved 
from selling unused dry trash to garbage collectors.

  "The garbage house is now standing, but since we do not have sufficient 
savings, it still has no roof," Lies said.

  Berita untuk perhatian kita bersama, siap-siap suatu saat sampah tidak 
terangkut, apalagi yang belum bayar iuran!!!
  Mulailah berpikir untuk mengolah sampah secara mandiri.

  Warga Protes Keberadaan TPA Pondok Rajeg Bogor
  Penulis : Dede Susanti


  BOGOR--MI: Keberadaan Tempat Pembuangan Akhir ( TPA) sampah Pondok Rajeg, 
Kabupaten Bogor, saat ini diprotes  warga sekitar. Aksi protes warga pun 
dilampiaskan dengan menggelar demo dan pemblokiran sejumlah unit truk sampah 
yang hendak menuju TPA tersebut, Senin (7/7). 

  Warga menuntut agar TPA Pondok Rajeg yang ada di sekitar Perumahan Dephan, RW 
11, Pondok Rajeg, Kecamatan  Cibinong, Kabupaten Bogor itu ditutup. Aksi 
berlangsung sekitar dua jam. Dalam askinya, tidak kurang dari 150 warga  
mengusung tuntutan agar TPA tersebut segera ditutup. Menurut mereka tuntutan 
itu tidak bisa ditawar-tawar lagi karena  kondisinya memang sudah tidak layak. 

  "Ini dulu kan cuma tempat pembuangan kecil (TPST,red) saja. Tapi kenapa 
sekarang semuanya dilimpahkan ke sini. Kami di sini yang jadi korban. Gak bisa 
napas,"kata Sulis Ketua RW setempat. 

  Warga juga mengaku keinginan agar TPA tersebut ditutup, karena mulai dari 
awal TPA itu berada, hingga saat ini  dengan keadaan yang merusak kenyamanan, 
tidak ada satupun janji dari pihak pengelola dalam hal ini Dinas Cipta Karya 
(DCK) Kabupaten Bogor dipenuhi. 

  "Pengelolaan tidak sesuai. Tidak ada teknologi yangg diterapkan dan terjadi 
penumpukan sampah.  Kalau kemarau  terbakar atau sengaja dibakar dan asap serta 
baunya perumahaan. Sedangkan kalau hujan sampah yang meluber ke  Sungai 
Ciliwung dan pencemaran semakin meluas.Tidak ada itu kompensasi apa-apa 
termasuk untuk kesehatan yang  diberikan pada kami,"ujar Sulis. 

  Aksi yang berlangsung sejak pagi itu akhirnya berakhir setelah ada pihak dari 
DCK yang datang dan diperoleh  kesepakatan.  "Tadi ada yang datang dari 
pengelola. mereka mengajak berembuk untuk mencari solusinya dan kami akan 
berkumpul besok di DCK. Kita lihat saja nanti. Tapi kalau solusinya tidak 
sesuai dengan yang kami inginkan, kami tetap  akan menuntut untuk penutupan 
saja," kata Sulis. 

  Untuk diektahui, tidak kurang dari 2000 warga yang tinggal di sekitar TPA 
Pondok Rajeg, yang mengeluh karena  daerahnya tercemar.Terutama dengan bau 
busuk yang kelar dari sampah yang saat ini sudah meluber melampaui area  TPA 
dan bercecaran ke area pemukiman warga. 

  Menurut Sulis, sebenarnya kondisi tersebut sudah dirasakan warganya sejak 
empat tahun lalu. Namun, saat itu tidak separah seperti yang dialami warga 
belakangan ini. "Parah-parahnya dua minggu terakhir ini. Sampahnya sudah  
meluber kemana-mana. Sedangkan disini lokasinya padat penduduk yang mayoritas 
warga yang usianya masih muda  dan anak-anak. Buat orangtua saja sudah 
mengganggu, apalagi untuk kesehatan anak-anak. Di sini banyak anak kecil,  yang 
masih di TK dan SD,"kata Sulis. 

  Pihaknya mengakui sudah coba melakukan aksi dengan pengiriman surat kepada 
pihak terkait dan berdialog sejak 2  tahun lalu. Namun tetap saja tidak ada 
penanganan serius dan pengelolaan dari pihak DCK. (DD/OL-03)
