Abstract

With the rise of environmental unrest and the periodic felling of trees by some individuals and even elements with legal rights, concerns about sustainability and the life of the next regeneration triggered the emergence of sustainability concepts that were thought to help reduce envuromental damage. In Indonesia itself, there have been many theories and regulations thrown from both academics and government however, it has not been properly executed by all parties. The research aims to investigate aspects of kajang tribe that implement biodiversity and environmental sustainability. The method used in this research is a qualitative method, using an ethnographic approach in analyzing data obtained directly from the field, namely observation, interviews and documentation. The results showed that the implementation of biodiversity and environmental sustainability in the kajang tribe prioritizes social and environmental aspects over economic growth. The kajang tribe still believes in ancestral messages and preserves their natural forests. It is called Pasang ri Kajang which contains unwritten rules and ancestral messages but is widely instilled by the kajang tribe community who believe that the message is message from Allah swt delivered through the prophet, the kajang tribe believes that by protecting the environment and forests, it is the same as protecting and respecting their mother and the next regeneration will be guaranteed to fulfill the resources that will be used in their lives.
