air pollution

Bandarlampung is getting more and more crowded, traffic jams always happens here and there. This condition is worsen as there are some street that cross the railway. They are in Kampung Baru, Labuhan Ratu, Jl. Sultan Agung, Way Halim, Jl. Urip Sumoharjo, Kedaton, Jl. Hanoman Kampung Sawah, Jl. Pemuda Tanjungkarang, Jl. Tulang Bawang, Kebon Jeruk, Jl. Gajah Mada and Jl. Perintis kemerdekaan.

When the train passes those street. Hundreds of cars and motorcycle have to wait for the train to get through. I notice not many of the drivers/riders turn off their vehicle's engines while waiting for the train to pass though they are idle for more than 3 minutes. How much gas is wasted? The vehicles do not move, but the gas is burnt. Do they realize that they had waste the gas and had made the earth suffer from air pollution at the time.

Turn it off.......

It was about 12 am. I was on the way to do the Jum'atan. There were a lot of motorcycles and cars parked a long the street on the left and right side of the street. I saw a strange thing. It was a car that was parked near the entrance gate of the Muslimin Mosque in Pahoman Bandarlampung. The car engine is on, from the glass window I can see clearly that there was no one in the car. But why did the owner let the car engine on? Did he do it in purpose?
The Jum'atan prayer spend at least 45 minutes. How much gas does the car consume in 45 minutes? I do not have any car, so I can not answer it. But I know that the car needs the fuel to work. The car release the emission gas into the air. It doesn't only consume the gas but also pollute s the air. Wow..............

Save the earth

Do you sometimes fall asleep when you watch TV? I do. But don't worry, I always set the sleep timer so the TV would be on till the next day-it will be of at 11 pm. I usually get home at 9.10 pm. before going to bed I usually watch TV for about an hour. But most of the time I would fall asleep in front of the TV.

Does it have something to do with "ketahanan iklim"?. The electricity that we use in our homes is generated by power plant that is powered by fossil fuel. The engine that works using fossil fuel produce energy-that is beneficial for human being and emission gas-that pollutes the air.

So if we use less amount of electric energy, less fossil fuel will be needed to generate the electricity means less emission gas that is released into the air.


Turn off the electronic appliances when you do not use it............

The earth has lost it balance. Natural disasters happened in any parts throughout Indonesia, the latest was the flood in East Kalimantan.A few days ago, I sent an sms to Luthfiyyah, in East Kalimantan.
