Abstract

Solid garbage is a widespread problem in big cities in Indonesia, including South Tangerang. The population growth is getting bigger, and the waste pile grows more prominent too. Changes in the lifestyle of the people in South Tangerang and urbanization are also factors that influence waste piles’ growth. This article aims to examine waste management policies with community empowerment as a philosophy to support a green city in South Tangerang. This study uses qualitative research with a literature study method to present relevant data for this research. The results showed that one of the efforts to implement a waste management policy and empower the people of South Tangerang is through a waste bank where the increasing number of waste banks in South Tangerang City will increase public awareness of the importance of maintaining the cleanliness of the city so that the hope of South Tangerang City as a green city can be achieved.
