This paper explores the connection between American literature and environmental issues, focusing on greed and pollution. It analyzes Jack London’s The Sea Wolf to understand how they can highlight the negative effects of unchecked greed on natural resources. The findings can help Indonesia manage its marine resources. By understanding the dangers of greed and pollution, Indonesia can develop a sustainable approach to its ocean resources. The study suggests that literature can inform policy discourse and promote environmental stewardship in the Blue Economy context. The implications include promoting ecological awareness, interdisciplinary research, and leveraging literature for positive social and environmental change.
