Green Effort

This article has been pick from the STAR, 30th April 2009 .Pete Teo , the actor and singer has take an action to save the environment by voicing up his concern about the global warming at staronline tv...you can watch the video by visiting this website http://thestaronline.tv/v/3310

The celebrity said that he already change about his life style like not using anymore plastic bag when shopping, not using air conditioning and not wasting the electricity when not in used..simple is it? Everybody can do it and i think if we have done this earlier..our earth still in the green zone and i think that the earth still can manage our grand grand children a trillion years more to go...some people need to read something or need to alert by the others just to ignite the spirit inside them to save the environment..for me this is not a positive sign for us to save the environment..because without this campaign, education, publishing or any other technique people are not realize that our earth is getting sick... with the global warming matters.Global warming is not the only environmental issues that has been occured on the earth.We have a lot of issues such as green recyling , greenhouse gases, energy conservation, pollution and other issues that may effect our environment and need a lot of our attention and contribution in order to save our planet.

Below are a few tips that all of us can follow to save our earth..may be i'm not a celebrity (follow the celebrity lifestyle)..but it is not waste if you apply some of these simple action in your daily life:

1.Reduce, reuse and recyle...3R -can do at any place..can do at home, office , school or in your community..
2.Use less air conditioning..- do not reduce the ozone layer...
3.Change a light bulb - change regular bulb to Compact Flourescent Light (CFL) bulbs..surprisingly if every house at the US change only one bulb to CFL , it would eliminate 90 billion pounds of greenhouse gasee, at the same as taking 7.5 million cars off the road..so go for it..
4.Drive less and drive smart- plan your journey...and car pool if they are on the same way..
5.Buy energy efficient products - tips when want to buy new car ..choose one that offers good mileage .
6.Plant a tree - If you have the means to plant a tree, start digging.During photosynthesis , trees and other plants absorb carbon dioxide and give off oxygen.They are an integral part of the natural atmospheric exchange cycle here on earth , but there are too few of them to fully counter the increases in carbon dioxide caused by the automobile traffic, manufacturing and other human activities.A single tree will absorb approximately one ton of carbon dioxide during its lifetime.
7.Use the "Off" Switch - easy step..if not in used then switch off please..
8.Encourage others to conserve - share the knowledge and technique...

* Save the planet..save our future....*

Reduce,Reuse,Recycle....


This photo has been taken from Star, 30th April 2009...The ethics of a people nowadays has been decreased.The public is not concern anymore with the environment issues because we only concern about money..when we say about environment.. absolutely it will be a volunteer works and did not bring any income..so who cares about the environment???This attitude should be changed ..if we are not the person that will involve in this things..who should carries the responsibilities???

The 3R programmed is a volunteer basis..but until when the volunteer basis sholud be a guidance to ask the people to do the 3R..The 3R programmed is the simplest way to protect the environment.

Reduce anything that can lead to futher pollution such as buying products with minimal packaging..Recycle anything that you can , such as paper, plastic ,newspaper and aluminum cans....Reuse all the non recycle items..

*We are not going to do this for us..we are going to do this for our children*
