Go Green

Go green is the act of saving the Earth which experiencing global warming as a result of our own act. That I know global warming is happened due to the greenhouse effect, when heat received the earth from the sun would otherwise be reflected back out of atmosphere even settled on the earth because of the pollution cloud. It causes Earth's temperature increase therefore will give bad effect such as a prolonged drought, the melting of icebergs in the poles, rising sea levels, etc.

Nowadays many products which are not environmentally friendly and can damage the nature, besides that our lifestyle also affects the environment such as the use of Air Conditioner/electrical overload, increase number of the motor vehicle, the use of plastic bags, etc.


Well, actually there's so many go green actions that we can do, but I only discuss a few simple things that we can do to save our beloved earth. Because from this little things, we can realize a big dream to make our earth beautiful and healthy again like before. Let's check out the small thing that we can do:

- Planting trees in the empty area and in house yard, obviously this is the most important for go green action because so many trees are felled, whereas the tree can store CO2 gas that holds the sun heat in earth, so more trees then more CO2 is released into the air can be stored in the tree.

- Turn off the electricity when not in use, do not leave electronic equipment on standby, such as unplug mobile phone charger from the socket, turn off the lights during the daytime, or could be at night when not needed, because at night the occurrence of use peak load electricity.

- Reduce the use of plastic, because it is difficult to degrade and dangers of burning plastic can produce harmful gases for us and our earth. Replace the use of plastic bags for shopping with paper bags or something like that which can be used many times. And if you must use plastic do not directly discarded but collect it because it can be recycled again. =)

- Turn off the screensaver, by activate the screensaver will take more energy and release CO2. So, turn off your screensaver now!

- Use public transportation, because more private vehicles today is certainly produce greenhouse gases, and anyway if we use public transport which carry many  passengers could reduce congestion as well. Or if you don't want to use public transport, please use a bicycle that does not contribute to greenhouse gases. =)

- Limit the use of paper, because its raw material derived from wood.

- Use air conditioning only as needed, because the gas chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) that produced by cooler uses freon besides being able to withstand the heat is also able to reduce the ozone layer.

Maybe only this that I can tell, because not only just the way that we need to know, the most important thing is to do go green actions now, because the little things that we do mean big for our earth. =)
