Background: Indonesia has pledged to reach its Net Zero Emission target by 2060, necessitating the shift to renewable energy sources. To achieve this, Indonesia must transition from its current reliance on fossil fuel power plants to renewable energy generators, ensuring the same or greater electricity capacity. One viable renewable energy source is organic waste. This study aims to explore strategies for developing organic waste as an alternative energy source to bolster Indonesia's energy resilience and environmental sustainability. Method: The research employs a qualitative approach, including literature reviews and qualitative descriptive analysis. Result: Waste to Energy (WtE) processes convert waste into electricity and/or heat, aiding in greenhouse gas reduction, improving waste management efficiency, and supporting sustainable development. WtE technologies can utilize both thermochemical and biochemical methods to convert waste into energy. The Indonesian government is known to have 12 projects to accelerate the installation of Waste Processing into Electrical Energy, both the Waste Power Plants that have been in operation and under construction and using gasification as the method. The development of WtE faces various challenges ranging from completeness and consistency of regulations, high tipping fees, complex cooperation mechanisms and business models, problems with the characteristics and nature of Indonesian waste that need special handling, and rejection from residents. Conclusion: Strategies that can be implemented in developing WtE in Indonesia include drafting policies and regulations, increasing public awareness, collaboration with the private sector, choosing the right technology, developing infrastructure, increasing the efficiency of waste collection, and international partnerships. Novelty/Originality of this study: This research offers concrete strategies to develop Waste to Energy (WtE) technology in Indonesia, including policy formulation, increasing public awareness, and collaboration with the private sector to utilize organic waste as a renewable energy source to support the 2060 Net Zero Emission target.

Background: Rainfall and temperature variability are a threat to sustainable agricultural production in Malawi. Main crops which include rice are highly affected due to climate variability since this crop is grown during wet season. A study was therefore conducted in one EPA named Mitole in Chikwawa district in southern Malawi to determine the impacts of precipitation and temperature variability on rice production. Method: Secondary data of climate variables and rice data was used for a period of 16 years which was obtained from Department of Climate Change and Meteorological Services (DCCMS) in Blantyre and Mitole EPA in Chikwawa respectively. Before data analysis data quality control was done where outliers were manually corrected and also errors were corrected using homogeneity test in which single mass curve for each data were plotted. In data analyses; excel and R was used to do trend analysis. Mann Kendall test was used to test if there were significant trend of data or not. To determine the relationship between climate parameters and rice production correlation analysis tested. Regression analysis was also used to predict the results if the climate variables keep varying. Result: The results showed that only minimum temperature had a negative significant trend and other variables had trends which were not significant. Correlation analysis showed non-significant relationship between climate parameters and rice production and also the results of regression analysis had non-significant relation therefore there was enough evidence to predict the results in future. Conclusion: Since the results did not provide enough evidence that climate variables specifically rainfall and temperature affect rice production in the area, it was recommended that more research must be done to discover the way farmers must follow to maximize the production.

Green open space (GOS) plays a very important role in realizing a sustainable city and has a balance of ecological and psychological functions for urban communities. Green open space (GOS) can be divided into two categories, namely public GOS and private GOS, but only public GOS can still be controlled directly by the government. Until now, there has been no study regarding the use of public green open spaces in Denpasar City. The aim of this research is to identify the availability of public green open space in Denpasar City, analyze the implications of using public green open space in Denpasar City, and formulate strategies and policies for managing public green open space in Denpasar City. Data collection techniques in this research were interviews and questionnaires. The data analysis techniques in this research are qualitative and quantitative descriptive analysis techniques to determine the availability of public GOS, SWOT analysis for the use of public RTH, and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) to determine management strategies and policies. The availability of public green open space in 2011 was recorded at 2,341.48, or 18.32 percent. The availability of public green open space in 2019 was recorded at 1,572,990 hectares, or 12.49 percent. The difference between 2011 and 2019 was 768,490 ha, or 5.83 percent. The minimum area of public green open space in accordance with the regulations, namely 20 percent, was 1.68 percent in 2011 data and 7.51 percent in 2019 data. The implementation of the utilization of Denpasar City Public Green Open Space (GOS) based on the results of the analysis that has been carried out does not comply with the standards of Minister of Home Affairs Regulation Number 1 of 2007 concerning Arrangement of Green Open Space in Urban Areas and Minister of Public Works Regulation Number 5 of 2008 concerning Guidelines for Providing and Utilizing Green Open Space in Urban Areas. Management still needs to be improved both in terms of handling, security, and maintenance as well as maintaining the availability of existing public open space.

Make awig-awig and village regulations on waste water management that are used as the basis for regularity in community life.

The extraction process is a process of separating a substance based on its dissolution difference against two different dissolved liquids, usually water and the other an organic solvent. Vegetable oil is an oil that can be extracted from various parts of the plant that is processing the stems, leaves, seeds, flowers and fruit peel. Seed is one of the main ways plants to regenerate. Seeds contain large and distinct quantities of macromolecule reserves, which are stored as a source of spare food to support early germination. As an alternative to the healthful drugs of the body from various diseases that will attack the human body and have other important benefits. In this study used an extraction research method that produced vegetable oils in using 30 grams of mango seeds each on a 6-time process with ethanol and hexane solvents which used 500 ml each at a given time. From a good yield yield obtained at 3 hours of extraction process with ethanol solvent having a yield of 50%, then having a good quality is obtained by the yield of vegetable oil by using ethanol solvent. Thus the vegetable oils of the extraction process have a good oil content in the ethanol solvent versus hexane.
