Abstract

Peatland management by the people of South Kalimantan has not been optimal and tends to be wrong in its implementation. Negative phenomena are still found, such as waste disposal, which causes water pollution and forest fires to smog, causing damage to swamp ecosystems. Among the reasons is that love for the environment has not yet flourished so that people are reluctant to recognize the characteristics and dangers of mistaken management of peatlands. In light of this, it is essential to carry out sustainable research to introduce peatlands’ natural characteristics and their use to the community, especially students in schools. Later, they can give the best treatment in managing peatlands when they are involved in the community. This writing’s initial stage is to conduct a literature study by examining various theories and results of previous research to then emerge as a complete initial hypothesis or idea. The analysis technique used in this paper is descriptive qualitative. The results of the literature study obtained were the empowerment of peatlands as a source of science learning on acid and alkaline materials, which is a learning design to introduce environment-based learning from an early age to foster a love for nature and the surrounding environment in students.
