The phenomena of environmental damage associated with local community culture, and policies of related agencies in an effort to prevent damage to the river environment. The study focuses on handling environmental damage, which reveals facts in a qualitative descriptive manner that incorporates elements of community, culture, and government policy with a socio-ecological approach. Research has been carried out in three sub-districts in Lhokseumawe City. The three sub-districts that are the research locations are densely populated areas. The data was analyzed inductively to reveal patterns of handling environmental damage to the river by carrying out an intrinsic assessment of the data through relevant sources and carrying out source checks with in-depth research. Carry out comparisons with other sources to strengthen the issues studied and analyze data by using an inductive-qualitative approach. The study found the aspect is an important basis for fostering an environmentally caring attitude in communities around the river. Studies also found that the impact of environmental damage on nature will produce more eccentric arguments. Thus, the socio-ecological approach is effective in building community awareness against damage to the natural environment while protecting water quality and threats to existing biota.
