Abstract

Environmental awareness is an important aspect of efforts to maintain environmental sustainability. Greening activities can serve as a form of direct action as well as a means of fostering community concern for the condition of the surrounding environment. This article aims to describe greening activities as an effort to increase environmental awareness in Karangwaluh Village. The activity was carried out in the area of Ar Rahmah Mosque, Nogo Karangwaluh, through the involvement of students in field activities and interaction with the surrounding community. The method used was a descriptive qualitative approach through observation, direct participation, and activity documentation. The implementation of the activity was directed toward creating a greener, more organized, and comfortable environment while encouraging community concern for environmental preservation. The results indicate that greening activities can serve as an educational medium and a form of direct action to foster environmental awareness. The involvement of students and the community also plays an important role in developing the understanding that environmental preservation is a shared responsibility. Therefore, greening activities in Karangwaluh Village are expected to encourage positive habits in maintaining and preserving the environment sustainably.
