Abstract

The household waste problem in Cirebon City continues to increase in line with population growth and increasingly complex consumption patterns. Improper waste management practices have the potential to cause negative impacts on both the environment and public health. This study aims to analyze the implementation of environmental law principles particularly the preventive and participatory principles—in the household waste management system of Cirebon City. The research employs a qualitative descriptive method using literature review and local policy analysis. The findings indicate that the implementation of the preventive principle remains suboptimal due to limited public education and inadequate waste-sorting facilities. Similarly, the participatory principle has not been applied evenly, as a result of insufficient socialization and low levels of community engagement. Strengthening regulations, enhancing public awareness, and fostering synergy between government and society are required to develop a sustainable household waste management system grounded in environmental law principles.
