Only One Hour that we have to save the Earth

Earth is dying. The air temperature is getting hot, erratic weather and climate. This is a fraction of the impact of global warming, the process of increasing the average temperature of the atmosphere, sea and land earth. Worse yet the world as confirmed by the scientists, global warming impact on climate change due to human activities.

This century, increasing global temperature increase to 1.4 to 5.8 degrees Celsius. A number of things that are expected to hit Indonesia, among others, sea level rise will inundate the mainland as far as 50 meters from the coastline of the Indonesian archipelago, along the 81 thousand kilometers. In addition, more than 405 thousand hectares of Indonesia's land is expected to drown. That is, thousands of small islands threatened erased from the map of the Indonesian archipelago.

Starting from the condition and the Earth where we live has to be rescued soon, there arose the idea of Earth Hour. This is one of the campaigns of World Wildlife Fund (WWF), a global initiative that invites individuals, business practitioners, government and other public sectors around the world to participate and turn off the lights for one hour. The goal, saving the electricity consumption. Why is electricity? Because the human dependence on electricity has resulted in an average increase in Earth's temperature drastically.

This can lead to rising sea surface water, drought, storms, and major changes to the environment on Earth. As an illustration, the electrical energy consumption in Indonesia focused on Java-Bali or equal to 78 percent of total national electricity consumption. Other parts of Indonesia that have smaller portions. Well, if 10 percent of Indonesian people participate in Earth Hour, Indonesia can saving electricity consumption amounted to 300 MWh. Whereas with a very simple way through turn off the lights for one hour only. In order for our earth does not hurt, now the time to prove our concern to preserve our Earth for the future of our grandchildren. Let's participate through Earth Hour.

Managing electricity in our homes

Everything that is good for this earth must also have been beneficial to our health. Here is how to make a friendly home environment. Maybe you have a lot of effort to save the environment, such as riding a bike to travel back to a place near the house, use energy efficient lighting, or buying organic food. But it is still much to be done to create a home healthier, safer and greener.

Did you know? When we are at home, most of the furniture, including television, DVD player, mobile phone charger, or other items that are equipped with LED screen or remote control still sucking electricity even in the dead. In fact, according to the fact 75 percent of electronic equipment in the house spend electricity just when not being used. Of course we are looking for ways how to stop it all, besides we are in financial losses we are also tired of a vain thing simply by removing electrical energy.

So plug all electronic devices, especially cellular phone chargers, computers, etc. to a socket connection with a lot of plugs and are equipped with on-off button. We've turned off all automatic. Imagine, just by doing small things that we can save energy, save the family finances and can even protect the earth. If only every existing home on this earth doing the same thing, then we will find our healthy living. GO GREEN ....!
