Ways to be Green


Wow in the last post I wrote many, many scary things. Now the time to spend your time off to read some ways to reduce your own emission.
(source y! green, stopglobalwarming.org, and wikihow

FIRST
UNPLUG Even when electronic devices are turned off, they use energy. Save over 1,000 lbs of carbon dioxide, alsooo your electricity bills could be reduced up to 10% per year.

SECOND
USE LESS, LESS, LESS WATER Dont use water heater. Cold water is way more, more freshing than the hot one, and causing less CO2 to the environment. Showers account for 2/3 of all water heating costs. Save 350 lbs. of CO2.

THIRD
USE RECYCLED ITEMS For girls: shop with your own eco-friendly fashionable collectible bag than those plastic bags. Fancier, eh? Also use recycled tissue paper, that's gonna save 5lbs of CO2 per ream.

FOURTH
DRIVE LESS For those in Jakarta: drive less could avoid the traffic jam, and your rising-impatient for waiting it. Use transjakarta (?) Or even bycicle to places which is near. Or just walk. Diet diet diet girls. Or do carpools to school. Or go hang out together in one car, more fun, less carbon :D

FIFTH
EDUCATE YOURSELF ABOUT GLOBAL WARMING I mean if you dont know what are the impacts of these THING, maybe u're not going to even care about telling your friends of glob's warming whatnots.

SIXTH
TELL PEOPLE TO USE ECO-FRIENDLY STUFFS Also tell yourself. Haahaa. Tell your mom, dad, sister, brother, friends, acquaintances, partners, and everyone to use something like: fluorescent bulb, bycicle, aaandd anything with less energy used. You can see some eco-friendly electronics examples here greenelectronics.com

SEVENTH
BUY PRODUCTS LOCALLY For instance: just shop in local Topshop at the nearest mall to your home than going to UK to check the latest trends. Haahaa. Joking. Anyway you also can buy local products: support the local economy. Do you know how far that blueberry you eat has traveled? :)

EIGHTH
GET USED TO THIS HOTHOT ENVIRONMENT Well, I mean we're going to be like this, and even more in the future. So please reduce the usage of your AC or thermostat. And dont idle in the car. BBM NAIK! :D

Well those are some. There are still lotsa things to do but I chose it for you because I think those are the easiest for you to do.. though there still lots which also are easy. Haahaa. come on, let us reduce our own emission.
