Kurangi Sampah Makanan, Leaders Community Gelar Zero Food Waste Action

Updated: Jun 18, 2019
Menurut Waste4Change.com, Indonesia tercatat sebagai penyumbang sampah organik terbesar nomor 2 di dunia. Maka dari itu, Leaders Community bergabung dengan komunitas Omah Maggot Jogja menggagas sebuah workshop bertajuk Zero Food Waste Action. Acara ini diadakan pada hari Sabtu (12/4) di Omah Maggot Jogja, Piyungan dan diikuti sebanyak 60 peserta dari Universitas Atma Jaya Yogyakarta.

Di dalam workshop ini, para peserta diajak untuk mengolah sampah organik dengan belatung yang disebut Maggot. Maggot sendiri adalah belatung Black Soldier Fly (BSF) yang memakan sampah organik seperti berbagai macam sisa makanan. Sehingga bisa membantu manusia untuk mengurangi jumlah sampah organik yang tidak diolah. Materi workshop disampaikan sendiri oleh pendiri Omah Maggot Jogja, Henri Supranto (65).
“Apabila teman-teman ingin mempelajari tentang Maggot, bisa langsung datang saja. Kami akan menyambut dengan senang hati,” ujar Henri kepada peserta. Menurutnya, budidaya Maggot cukup mudah dan murah karena tidak memerlukan teknologi yang canggih dan tidak memakan banyak biaya. Maggot juga memiliki manfaat lain yaitu dapat menjadi pakan ikan.

Para peserta terlihat antusias dalam mengikuti serangkaian kegiatan workshop dan mendapat ilmu untuk mengolah sampah organik. Ketua panitia workshop Zero Food Waste Action, Elisa Dwi Hapsari (20), berharap di masa depan sampah organik bisa berkurang secara signifikan. “Harapannya sih semoga Maggot bisa dijadikan alternatif bagi banyak orang untuk mengurangi sampah organik terutama sampah makanan,” ujarnya.

Thinking about making health information easier to understand, I find the smaller practical questions more interesting than a quick conclusion. Plain language can help readers recognise what a health explanation does and does not establish. I would keep that thought nearby when looking for ideas about health information literacy. The part I would like to explore further is what happens when the idea meets a real situation with its own limitations. What makes a health information page understandable to someone without specialist knowledge?
What interests me about choosing a college learning environment is how a broad idea becomes part of an ordinary day. The way a course is taught can affect whether a student feels comfortable asking for help. I would keep that thought nearby when looking for ideas about college study choices. I do not have a settled view yet, but this seems like a good place to slow down and look more closely. What would you ask about teaching and support before choosing a college?
The subject of connecting historical names with local education feels more interesting when there is room for a reader to stop and ask their own questions. A school's name can provide a route into discussing a wider historical period. Seen this way, Jagiellonian history education becomes a topic to explore rather than something to sum up too quickly. I am still thinking through the details, and a small example would help me picture how this works in practice. How can students explore a historical figure without reducing the lesson to a list of dates?
A conversation about understanding media messages more carefully seems most useful to me when it leaves space for uncertainty and further questions. Separating a claim from the evidence offered for it makes a message easier to examine. I would use that point as a starting question when considering media literacy skills. I do not have a settled view yet, but this seems like a good place to slow down and look more closely. What questions should readers ask before sharing a striking headline?
What interests me about exploring stories through creative reading is how a broad idea becomes part of an ordinary day. A character's journey can become a starting point for imagining a different place or perspective. I would use that point as a starting question when considering creative reading activities. The part I would like to explore further is what happens when the idea meets a real situation with its own limitations. How would you encourage readers to connect a story with their own questions?
