Description
Summary:According to the Marketing Services and Development of PT TWC, waste around the Borobudur Temple Tourism Park area reaches 4 tons per day, consisting not only of organic waste such as leaves but also plastic waste. This issue is one of the causes of climate change that can trigger various environmental disasters if not managed properly. This research aims to determine the relationship between knowledge about waste and waste management among the community with waste management awareness in the Borobudur Temple Tourism Park. It is a quantitative study with a crosssectional approach, sampling 375 people using random sampling. Data analysis was conducted using bivariate tests (Chi-Square). Variables related to waste management awareness include knowledge about waste (p-value = 0.0004) and knowledge about waste management methods (p-value = 0.0003). The conclusion of this research is that knowledge about waste and knowledge about waste management methods are associated with waste management awareness in the Borobudur Temple Tourism Park environment.
