Green Campus As a Concept in Creating Sustainable Campuses

The concept of green campus is an integration concept in the Education research and community service system in environmental management. The objectives of this study are: (1) To find out the results of studies in several universities in Indonesia, whether this concept has a good impact on the process of creating a sustainable campus; (2) Knowing what obstacles are faced by the campus in applying the concept of green campus. This research method uses qualitative analysis with a literature study approach. Based on the results of the analysis on several campuses in Indonesia, it is known that the application of the green campus concept is very effective to be applied specially to manage the campus environment so that the creation of a sustainable campus. The most common obstacle is lack of knowledge about green campus and campus readiness to commit to protecting the environment. The need for the readiness of the campus management and students themselves on the importance of protecting the environment and creating a sustainable campus.


Introduction
The campus is a place for agents of change. The development of campuses in Indonesia must be supported by programs that support sustainable development. Many attempts were made by the campuses in realizing sustainable development. Many campuses have begun to implement various models in preserving nature, including the green campus.
Green campus can be defined as a program that integrates environmental management and protection into tertiary institutions [1]. Green campus is a combination of the environment and the campus world in its management. The concept of the environment which includes 3R (reduce, reuse, recycle), greening, in front of office, CSR and so on How to cite this article: Imas Gandasari, Oot Hotimah, and Mieke Miyarsah, (2020), "Green Campus As a Concept in Creating Sustainable Campuses" in International Conference on Humanities, Education, and Social Sciences, KnE Social Sciences, pages 1-9. DOI 10.18502/kss.v4i14.7853 IC-HEDS 2019 are combined with the campus concept which consists of the physical condition of the campus, campus location and the behaviour of campus residents [2]. In Indonesia the concept of green campus has been widely applied.
Some indicators of the creation of a green campus are campus management policies oriented to environmental management, including efforts to save water, paper, and electricity, greening to achieve the ideal proportion of green open space (RTH), and the availability of campus waste management with the 3R principle (reduce, reuse, recycle) [3]. The concept of green campus is designed to support sustainable development in tertiary institutions. At present there is a green campus designing body that is used in Indonesia, one of which is the UI green metric owned The application of the concept of green campus in Indonesia has had mixed results, due to the varying environmental conditions, geography and habits of each campus.
With a variety of conditions, it provides a challenge on the campus can the campus be a pioneer in protecting the environment so that the creation of a sustainable campus.
From the description above, this research focuses on finding out the application of green campus in Indonesia from studies that have been carried out by these campuses.
Sustainable development is an effort to optimally utilize resources to meet current and future needs. The United Nations (UN) has declared the past 2005-2014 as "the Decade of Education for Sustainable Development", which aims to integrate the principles, values and implementation of sustainable development into all aspects of education [4]. The environment with education cannot be separated from its role in creating sustainable development.

Understanding green campus
The concept of sustainable development is rooted in thought-oriented thinking to help understand our environment with all its complex and serious problems that we created so that we are able to overcome them [5]. In his thinking in creating sustainable development, it needs a lot of changes in the concept of thinking, especially what must be applied is the concept of returning to nature. DOI  Green can be interpreted as green and campus can be interpreted as a campus or educational location. If literally, the green campus can be interpreted as a green campus.
Green is not the building but the environment. Green campus is a concept of a fusion of the environment with the world of campus [2]. Green Campus can be interpreted as a campus with nuances of green because lush vegetation, grasses and trees [4]. From the above definition it can be concluded that the green campus is an overall activity in environmental management in order to create a sustainable campus.
Understanding the term Eco Campus or green campus in the context of environmental preservation is not just a campus environment filled with green trees or a campus filled with green paint, or because the campus's alma mater jacket is green, further than that the meaning contained in the eco campus is the extent to which campus residents can utilize the resources available in the campus environment effectively and efficiently, for example in the use of paper, writing stationery, the use of electricity, water, land, waste management, and others [6].

Development of green campus in Indonesia
The green campus program is nothing new in Indonesia. This program has been widely applied in several campuses in Indonesia. Here is a list of 10 greenest campuses in Semarang as a green campus pilot. At present prestigious campuses are starting to compete to make their campus a green campus, because besides being environmentally friendly the concept of green has now become a trend among our people. In the application of the concept of green campus it requires a change of mind and persistent efforts to achieve the implementation of a green campus [9].
In recent decades the thought of the evolution of sustainability for universities has received very serious attention [10]. In many parts of the world, many universities want to make their campus a green and comfortable campus for their students.

Methods
The study used qualitative methods with a literary study approach to examine the relevance of the Green Campus journal in Indonesia. Literature study, which is the retrieval of data by means of studying books and documents relating to the fundamentals of research [8].

Result
Green campus is not new anymore in this world. This concept has been applied in several universities in the world. but in Indonesia this concept is still a new concept that is not yet well known to many famous people in this country. in this research, we will discuss how to apply the concept of green campus in several universities in Indonesia and whether after the concept is implemented, it can create a sustainable campus.
Among the studies that will be discussed this time are them?     In The next university is University of Indonesia. University of Indonesia is the first university in Indonesia that pioneered the concept of green campus. University of Indonesia has a program used by many universities in the world, the program is a greenmetric UI. The successful concept of Green campus in University of Indonesia inspires many universities in Indonesia to start developing green campus.

Discussion
The concept of green campus in Indonesia is still not so new. at this time only large campuses have begun to apply the concept. This concept needs to be supported by not only campus leaders but also by campus residents and residents around the campus.
In the concept of a green campus many indicators must be fulfilled for the achievement of the concept. These assessments and indicators are usually obtained from the green campus design body, one of which is in Indonesia, the UI green metric.
Some campuses do not directly apply the whole concept but one by one from the indicators began to be applied. In implementing a new concept, it is certain that many obstacles will be faced, including in applying this green campus concept. The biggest obstacle faced is the lack of infrastructure and the amount of funds that must be spent to realize the concept.
A healthy campus must have a variety of open spaces with a variety of objectives that can be poured into attractive designs [13]. Utilization of open space is included in the category of green campus that must be met in accordance with government regulations in force in Indonesia.
