At that time Indonesia was on the verge of economic collapse, almost all economic sectors experienced negative growth. Where the construction sector is the sector that experienced the largest negative growth, namely minus 40% due to very high interest rates, a decrease in purchasing power and a very large debt burden. The trade and services sector experienced a contraction of minus 21%, the manufacturing industry sector decreased by 19%. All resulted from the implications of the monetary crisis that rocked Indonesia. This is because people's purchasing power is still minimal. Therefore, one of the efforts to revive the economy includes profit sharing. The profit sharing system implemented in sharia banking is divided into two systems, namely; First. Profit Sharing is a profit sharing system that is based on the net results of income received from business collaboration, after deductions have been made for costs incurred during the business process. Second. Revenue Sharing is a profit sharing system that is based on the total of all income received before deducting the costs incurred to obtain that income.

The presence of plastic in today's contemporary era, has various functions that greatly help people's lives. Plastic with all its properties, which are more inclined to the many advantages of its use and flexibility so that it is easy to use in various fields of life. With this fact, there are more and more products that rely on plastic as a basic ingredient in the manufacture of their products. This is of course supported by very high market demand, so that all types of production of goods made from plastic are mushrooming. If we return to our original purpose, the creation of plastic was indeed used as a substitute for paper bags, which at that time was experiencing a crisis of threats due to the increasing number of illegal logging incidents, so that there was a potential for the scarcity of the trees themselves. However, the opposite is currently true, where the use and production of plastics is increasingly dominating, making the remaining production waste and waste resulting from its use even more insurmountable. This is compounded by the fact that plastic is difficult to decompose, requiring hundreds of years of time. This, in the concept of a risk society is called the boomerang effect, because something that existed in the industrial era was created as a form of innovation that exists as a solution, but in the modern era like now it has become a separate risk for the surrounding community. For various phenomena as a result of the creation of plastic itself, society does not necessarily let them slowly be swallowed up by existing risks, but there are many efforts to create innovations as a way to protect themselves from various risks distributed by production and the increasingly widespread use of plastic in today's reality.

This study aims to determine the intensity of the use of Indonesian and how much influence the intensity of the use of Indonesian has on the local community, namely West Java. Some of the influences or impacts of using Indonesian on regional languages (Sundanese/West Java).

Konsumen akan melakukan pilihan terhadap semua barang yang diinginkan berdasarkan rupiah yang dimilikinya. Suatu rumah tangga setiap bulannya akan membutuhkan berbagai macam barang dan jasa untuk memenuhi kebutuhan hidupnya. Sedangkan penghasilan yang dimiliki terbatas jumlahnya. Dengan penghasilan yang terbatas tersebut, rumah tangga sebagai pelaku ekonomi yang rasional akan melakukan pilihan yang terbaik untuk mengonsumsi barang-barang kebutuhannya. Tentu saja pilihan akan dilakukan terhadap barang yang memberikan manfaat atau kepuasan yang paling tinggi. Semakin banyak barang yang dimliki, konsumen akan merasa semakin terpenuhi kebutuhannya. Dengan demikian konsumen menginginkan membeli barang yang dibutuhkan serendah mungkin. Pandangan ekonomi Islam mengenai permintaan relatif sama dengan ekonomi konvensional, namun terdapat batasan-batasan dari individu untuk berperilaku ekonomi yang sesuai dengan aturan syariah. Dalam ekonomi Islam, norma dan moral “islami” yang merupakan prinsip Islam dalam melakukan kegiatan ekonomi, merupakan faktor yang menentukan suatu individu maupun masyarakat dalam melakukan kegiatan ekonominya, sehingga teori ekonomi yang terjadi menjadi berbeda dengan teori pada ekonomi konvensional.

This Community Service activity aims to optimize the use of environmentally friendly agricultural products in the home industry for processing aloe vera into nata de aloevera. The agricultural products used are rice straw waste and bagasse which are processed into biodegradable raw materials. The experiment was carried out using a completely randomized design (CRD) with three treatments namely A (50% waste rice straw + 50% bagasse), B (75% waste rice straw + 25% bagasse), and C (25% waste rice straw + 75% bagasse). Measurements were made of the parameters pH, total acid, water content, protein content, and organoleptic nata de aloevera. The results showed that treatment A gave the best results in terms of pH, total acid, and protein content. Meanwhile, C treatment gave the best results on water content and organoleptic.
