## Abstract
Abstract Our earth must accommodate about 381 million tons of waste per year. Indonesia’s waste burden per se has increased 190-fold in just 65 years in 2015. Of this total, Indonesia accounts for around 64 million tons of waste per year, and not until 5% is recycled, and the rest is burned, thrown into the landfill, and the sea. Waste is an environmental issue that affects the economic sector, health, social welfare, and to the existence of a country in the global political ecology map. Therefore, it needs to be addressed seriously. The potential of world waste production contributed by the Southeast Asian region, and more precisely, Indonesia is a phenomenon under study. This research then employs a literature review method and use concepts and theories about the environment as a global issue in International Relations (IR) and International Development studies as analytical tools to explore the issue qualitatively. This research then found that Indonesia has shown its commitment to deal with the plastic waste problem by implementing Indonesia’s National Action Plan (RAN) in Marine Waste Management up to 2025, with a target of reducing waste by 30% and waste management by 70%. Seriousness is needed in implementing this solution. One of them is more serious in the development of landfill gas in the world Waste to Energy (WtE) project. It is a pivotal step to eliminate the risks of the social cost of development and to realize the targets of environmentally sustainable development. Indonesia, thus, must be brave enough to contribute to helping the earth, which is half-dead in serving human progression.
