Abstract

One of the main problems in cities, such as Makassar City, is the reduction of groundwater. Consumption of groundwater is increasing along with population growth and development, but the volume of water that goes back in is very small due to reduced green areas that help water absorption, especially in densely populated settlements. That's why we need to know more about the benefits of biopori. Another cause, is a bad drainage system. By making biopore infiltration holes, this helps water to penetrate into the ground. The presence of organic waste in the biopore holes also increases the number of earthworms, which make small tunnel-like holes in the soil and allow water to seep quickly. You don't need a large area of ​​land to get the benefits of biopori. Education on making biopore holes as infiltration holes needs to be done from an early age. Therefore this service was carried out at the Ujung Pandang Education and Teaching Park Foundation with the theme of Sustainable Development with the Ujung Pandang Education and Teaching Park Foundation and the sub-theme Making Biopore Holes as Infiltration Holes.
