Abstract

The purpose of this community service is to instill an understanding of environmental entrepreneurship, especially about utilization of plastic waste and household waste as raw materials for new products that are worth selling. The application of environmental entrepreneurship is expected to reduce excessive environmental pollution, as well as to increase the income of the people in RT 1, who are members of UP2K in the neighborhood, through home industries. The methods used in community service are capacity building through socialization and training related to environmental entrepreneurship, plastic waste utilization, and composting. The result of this community service is the increasing understanding of participants of this community service towards environmental entrepreneurship, plastic waste utilization, and composting. Participants managed to make some products from plastic waste and sold in UMKM showrooms managed by LK3 Banjarmasin. Organic waste from household waste is also successfully used to become compost, where the compost is used to grow vegetables and fruits in their yards, and to be sold to the community with the help of the Department of City Cleaning and Landscaping Service of Banjarmasin Government.
