Main Article Content
Abstract
The research aims to reveal the life of caring for the environment as an inseparable part of the school program. Environmental care and friendly programs in various forms of activities have a great influence 4on shaping the character of students. This research is a type of field research with a qualitative descriptive approach. Sources of data in this study are adiwiyata managers and environmentalist organizations (Organisasi Pemuda Lingkungan/OPL). Data were collected through observation and interviews. The data collected were analyzed using the steps of data presentation, reduction, processing and conclusion. The results showed that the implementation of the independent adiwiyata program was carried out through school policies, both intracurricular and extracurricular. Activities are coordinated by cadres, including reforestation cadres, faith and piety strengthening cadres, youth health care cadres, literacy cadres, organic waste processing cadres, inorganic waste processing cadres and water and electricity energy saving cadres. Concern for the environment also creates awareness of responsibility, discipline and cooperation. This program is expected to be a means of educating students to become human beings who care about the environment in their respective places of residence.
