Abstract

Indications of the failure of green turtle protection are shown by the high exploitation of green turtles in various parts of Indonesia, the decrease in the number of turtles landing on nesting beaches, and the low level of community support. The threat of extinction of green turtles is increasingly real if the government does not immediately stop the exploitation of green turtles. To save green turtles from extinction, it is necessary to analyze the protection policies and formulate alternative protection for green turtles in the future. Analysis of the green turtle protection policy is carried out on the conservation activities of the Marine and Fisheries Service. The results of the policy analysis are needed to learn about the effectiveness of protection and management performance of green turtles in the formulation of alternative protection for sea turtles. The Indonesian government through related agencies, such as the Office of Marine Affairs and Fisheries, the Indonesian Institute of Sciences, and the Ministry of Environment have issued several regulations and policies for the protection of endangered species, such as Ratification of the United Nations Convention on Biodiversity through Law No. 5 of 1994, the ratification of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species through Presidential Decree No. 43 of 1978; Stipulation of Government Regulation No. 7 of 1999 and Government Regulation No. 8 of 1999. Stipulation of Government Regulation No. 7 of 1999 has protected green turtles along with 236 species of animals and 58 other plant species in the territory of Indonesia.
