The purpose of this study is to examine the effectiveness of green education-based comic media on understanding the concept of elementary school students in West Nusa Tenggara. This study is a quasi-experimental study using a 2 x 2 factorial design. Two sample schools from Central Lombok and North Lombok district were taken randomly with a total of 85 students from grades IV and V. The experimental class was given treatment by using green education-based comic media, while the control class used conventional methods. Data on understanding students’ concepts was collected through test instruments and then analyzed by using the One Way Anova test with the help of SPSS Version 21 software for Windows. The results showed that (1) the conceptual understanding of students in the experimental class is higher than the control class (p = 0.001 0.05). It can be concluded that the implementation of green education-based comic media can improve the understanding of students’ concepts and can be used for all levels of the class, especially high classes at the elementary school level.
