Abstract

Penelitian ini menggali potensi penggunaan kemasan guna ulang dalam mengurangi sampah kemasan di Indonesia, dengan fokus pada solusi yang ditawarkan oleh perusahaan rintisan bernama Alner. Dua partisipan dipilih sebagai studi kasus, dan pola konsumsi mereka dianalisis sebelum dan setelah menggunakan sistem kemasan guna ulang Alner. Hasilnya menunjukkan pengurangan signifikan dalam pembuangan sampah kemasan, dengan penghematan hampir 480 gram per bulan atau 5,76 kilogram per tahun untuk setiap partisipan. Dalam skala yang lebih luas, jika 1% populasi Indonesia mengadopsi sistem ini, pengurangan total sampah kemasan bisa mencapai 15.552 ton per tahun. Selain itu, penggunaan kemasan guna ulang juga berpotensi mengurangi emisi CO2 hingga 70-80% dibandingkan dengan kemasan sekali pakai. Kesimpulannya, sistem kemasan guna ulang, seperti yang diaplikasikan oleh Alner, memiliki potensi yang signifikan untuk mengurangi generasi sampah kemasan dan berkontribusi pada pelestarian lingkungan. Diperlukan dukungan lebih lanjut dari pemerintah, industri, dan konsumen, serta penelitian lebih lanjut untuk mengatasi hambatan dan meningkatkan efektivitas sistem ini dalam konteks spesifik Indonesia.
