Embodying Green Constitution by Applying Good Governance Principle for Maintaining Sustainable Environment

Abstract

This research project is aimed at elaborating and exploring an effective solution for recovering and improving the quality of environment. The solution will be focused on embodying the green constitution which emphasizes the importance of the protection and management of environmental function. This approach is required to simplify and to coherence the chaotic regulation in exploiting strategic natural resources which has impacted on the massive destruction of environment. It covers not only the first extinction, but also the secondary extinction of environment. In Indonesia, those chaotic regulations have been sparked by the national policy of regional autonomy that allow the regional government exploit their strategic natural resources, such as forest, fishing, coral reef, and other natural resources. The above condition has simulated many regions in producing and enacting regional regulations to exploit their natural resources. The lack coordination in issuing regional policy and regulation has caused many diametrical regulations that have exacerbated the quality of environmental protection and management. In anticipating the deterioration of the quality of environment, this paper offers administrative approach in embodying the green constitution. This approach refers to the application of the good governance principles in controlling, protecting and managing the function of environment.
