"Through the PGN CSR program, this Waste Bank also plays a role as a platform for environmental education and processing inorganic waste into products with economic value and environmentally friendly, so that it provides real benefits for environmental sustainability, increasing independence in waste management, and improving community welfare," said PGN Corporate Secretary, Fajriyah Usman, in a statement, Friday, December 19.
"This program prioritizes the principle of collaboration between the PGN CSR program with the Kedungturi Village community and stakeholders in community-based environmental management.
"In order to support the strengthening of the environmental education program, PGN also carries out waste sorting education at the Bina At-Taqwa Daycare to instill environmental awareness from an early age, as well as supporting the development of a Green House at the Kedungturi Elementary School as a means of learning practice and support for the Adiwiyata Program. This series of activities aims to build a sustainable culture of environmental care in the family, school, and community environment.
"In addition to providing environmental and social impacts, this Si-lestari innovation also generates significant and measurable economic impacts for the Kedungturi Village community.
