SAVE
AND LOVE THE EARTH
Planet earth is ranked fourth in the solar system that has
the privilege of living as a place to live because it has warm temperatures and
abundant water. Earth the only planet that is friendly and wonderful with a lot
of ocean and land in which there are many great natural charm. But the Earth was
getting older, many natural phenomena and natural disasters such as floods,
landslides, mudslides and even the events that occurred in Sidoarjo, East Java.
This occurs due to the nature of damage caused by most of
the human hand, one of which became the talk of the world is the issue of
global warming is a process of increasing the average temperature of the
atmosphere, oceans and the Earth's land because the sun emits radiation to penetrate
the layers of Earth's atmosphere . Radiation will be reflected back into space,
but most of the wave is absorbed by greenhouse gases, namely CO2, CH4, N2O, HFCs,
and SF4 in the atmosphere. As a result the wave trapped in the Earth's
atmosphere. This event occurs repeatedly, causing the average temperature at the
earth's surface increases. This event is often referred to as global warming., Global
average temperature at Earth's surface has risen 0.74 ° C ± 0:18 (1:33 ± 0:32 °
F) during the last hundred years. most of the increase in global average temperatures
since the mid-20th century is most likely caused by increased concentrations of
greenhouse gases due to human activities.
And some of the causes of global warming due to human activities such as:
1.
Population increases,
2.
Industrial activities and technologies that increase
3.
Human behavior that does not care about the cleanliness
of the environment such as littering, use of water, electricity other
danenergy excessive use of household appliances co2 level is high, rarely clean
environment, and so on.
4.
Increased human activity as it is now a private vehicle
users increases, it causes more and more CO2 gas produced, giving rise to air
pollution, in addition to human-generated smoke can also cause air pollution
5.
Waste of energy, Indonesia including the wearing of the
energy industry because indonesi including state
6.
Damage to forests from illegal deforestation by humans
7.
Lack of green areas and city parks that serve as the
lungs of the city, is caused by a number of developments or residential
buildings in major cities.
8.
Of agricultural and livestock activities also produce
greenhouse gas emissions through the flooded rice fields that produce methane
gas, fertilizer use and agricultural practices, crop residue burning, and
decomposition of manure can produce dinitro oxide gas.
9.
Garbage and waste, human waste generated each day will
accumulate and produce methane gas, and waste resulting from industrial
activities was a major threat to global warming.
10. Use of
electronic equipment that could lead to global warming such as air
conditioning, television, and even communication tools such as mobile phones,
etc.
All of this is the greatest cause that triggers the increase in global
warming, we as human beings created by God as a vicegerent on earth should be
more concerned with the environment and care for our earth, because nature is
now no longer friendly to men so many natural disasters and natural phenomena
that occur generated due to the impact of global warming.
Some effects of
global warming include:
1.
Rising temperatures in the Earth causes the melting of ice
at the north pole, south pole, the Arctic and Alaska.
2.
The increased volume of water in the sea, so that sea
level rise, and this leads to:
• marine ecosystem is reduced due to the many species of fish and coral bleaching.
• Rising sea levels resulting in the loss of small islands in Indonesia
• Fish production and decreased udanga
• The deteriorating quality of ground water due to mixing with sea water uptake.
• Damage to urban infrastructure due to sea water flooded
• marine ecosystem is reduced due to the many species of fish and coral bleaching.
• Rising sea levels resulting in the loss of small islands in Indonesia
• Fish production and decreased udanga
• The deteriorating quality of ground water due to mixing with sea water uptake.
• Damage to urban infrastructure due to sea water flooded
3.
Extreme climate changes resulted in a high-intensity rainfall
in a short time and a long dry season, when the weather is unpredictable
4.
Deforestation causes flora and fauna in the forest become
increasingly less
5.
In the agricultural sector to climate change caused extreme
delays harvest, crop failure due to floods or drought. Agricultural output was deteriorating
and for national food is reduced.
6.
The more diseases that arise mainly in tropical countries
such as disease (malaria, dengue, and ISPA)
7.
Crisis of water and electricity energy crisis
8.
Occurred several natural disasters such as floods,
landslides, tropical storms such as hurricane winds and tornadoes white.
9.
Abrasion occurs on the shoreline and erosion in forests
10.
In the economic field resulted in rising fuel prices and food
prices more expensive
This impact could worsen if we as humans do not make changes to this earth,
do from now on do not just look forward to the government, global warming is a
common problem to be solved. It's time to get together to reduce global warming
even done a little thing but the benefits are great, and we can do to reduce
global warming by:
1.
Conserve electricity:
• Turn off the lights and electricity when not needed
• Turn off the television, rice heater, radio, ac, if not used
• Do not be too long to open the refrigerator door
• Do not forget to unplug the cable if it is charging the battery
• Do not be too long to use electronic means
• Use energy-saving electronics
• Turn off the lights and electricity when not needed
• Turn off the television, rice heater, radio, ac, if not used
• Do not be too long to open the refrigerator door
• Do not forget to unplug the cable if it is charging the battery
• Do not be too long to use electronic means
• Use energy-saving electronics
2.
Conserve water,
use water as necessary so as not to waste
3.
Reusing items can
still be used:
• Using plastic bags / paper bags from the house to shop
• Buy products that can be refilled
• Use old newspapers for packing of goods
• Using plastic bags / paper bags from the house to shop
• Buy products that can be refilled
• Use old newspapers for packing of goods
4.
Reduce household
waste, reduce consumption of fast food.
5.
Recycle:
• Use old bottles to make vases,
• Use tin cans to make a place to save money
• Use kitchen waste and decaying leaves to make compost
• Separate the organic and inorganic waste
• Use items that can be used dikreasikan be selling goods that have value
• Use old bottles to make vases,
• Use tin cans to make a place to save money
• Use kitchen waste and decaying leaves to make compost
• Separate the organic and inorganic waste
• Use items that can be used dikreasikan be selling goods that have value
6.
Go for replanting (reforestation) in the home environment,
and planting trees on vacant land. Trees can absorb CO2 gas and produce O2 gas
7.
Take advantage of public transportation as a means of
everyday transport it can reduce air pollution
8.
Reduce smoking, because smoke can cause air pollution
9.
Avoid the use of perfume spray because it can reduce the
ozone layer
10.
Reduce the use of peptisida in plants
There are many
ways that we can do to reduce global warming, may I give a solution that could
be useful for all people, begin to apply this now at home and do these little
things because the benefits are great for the environment, do not wait until
the earth is actually destroyed, because there are future generations who
inherit this earth and its contents. Save our beloved earth, if not now, when? If not us, who else?
