A scavenger carries used goods from his scavenged garbage at the Poi Panda landfill, Kawatuna, Palu City, Central Sulawesi Province, Indonesia on June 8, 2021. The Indonesian Ministry of Environment said there were around 36.94 million tons of landfill in 2020 and 52, 95 percent or 19.56 million tons were handled with the 3R concept (reduce, reuse, and recycle), while the rest were not managed. Meanwhile, The National Plastic Action Partnership (NPAP) Indonesia stated that Indonesia produces around 6.8 million tons of plastic waste per year, and 61 percent of it is not managed. NPAP Indonesia estimates that 620 thousand tons of plastic waste enter Indonesian waters in in 2017, and if there is no intervention, the number will increase by 30 percent in 2025 to 780 thousand tons per year.
