Abstract

Garbage is one of the problems in Indonesia that can have a negative impact on the environment and public health. Environmental cleanliness is a shared responsibility, including children such as children who are still sitting in elementary education. It is necessary to give understanding and habituation from an early age so that they can become individuals who can maintain environmental cleanliness, starting from building the habit of disposing of waste in its place to being able to reuse waste that can still be used/reprocessed. Ecobricks are plastic bottles filled densely with non-biological waste, namely plastic. Ecobricks are a grassroots solution to plastic waste.
