ANALYSIS OF SUSTAINABLE WASTE MANAGEMENT FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS (SDGS) IN MEDAN CITY
Completing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030 is one of the cross-cutting challenges and problems that the City of Medan is trying to solve, even if it is not necessary. They do this to control the negative environmental, economic, social, and urban effects that threaten the city, as well as to obtain the benefits that come from doing so. The purpose of this study is to analyze green behavior, green infrastructure affecting green activity and green economy in Medan City and analyze waste management in line with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) targets in goals 8, 1, 11 and 12Waste that has been separated into organic (wet) and inorganic (dry) by the community should be managed by residential waste that is carried separately due to the differences in processing purposes. Organic waste, which is generally vegetables, leaves, branches and food waste, is transported to compost plants to be used as compost, while inorganic waste in the form of plastic, metal, glass, etc. is sorted based on the type of material to be sold to factories that use these goods as raw materials (recycled). This is the realization of one of the priority programs of the Medan City Government in the field of cleanliness by launching a clean market and waste management at the Lau Cih Main Market, Medan Tuntungan which produces about four tons of waste for three days, for which comprehensive waste processing is needed.
