GREEN Tips

Assalamualaikum dan selamat sejahtera semua,

saja je wa terpikir idea untuk buka thread kat sini dalam usaha kita nak menggalakkan perkongsian maklumat dalam menjaga alam persekitaran kita yang makin begitu hazab kan? orang kata kalo x leh nak buat perubahan yang besar, kita mulakan dengan sesuatu yang kecil dulu seperti sesuatu yang kita boleh lakukan sendiri untuk konsep Recycle, Reuse and Reduce kan?

so sesapa yang ada tips berguna dan cara untuk kita membantu alam sekitar dengan lebih baik, diharapkan kita dapat berkongsi disini ya....

wa mulakan dengan habit yang paling nyata, keterujaan membeli water bottle air mineral ...... Cuba elakkan kalo boleh.

Skip the bottled water, use a water filter to purify tap water instead of buying bottled water. Not only is bottled water expensive, but it generates large amounts of plastic container waste.

Cuba gunakan botol yang boleh diguna semula lebih baik jika dapat menggunakan botol aluminium dari botol plastik samada ke tempat kerja atau berjalan2. Boleh gak digunapakai bila membeli kopi atau teh....

ok gak tajuk nih, memandangkan sumber2 alam kita dah makin kritikal, pemikiran kita hendaklah kepada 'GO GREEN'...

nih tips dari internet :

Every little bit is a step to help save the earth.

1. Change to Fluorescent Bulbs - If every house in the United States changed all of the light bulbs in their house, that would be equivalent to taking one million cars off the streets.
2. Don't Rinse - Skip rinsing your plates before putting them into the dishwasher. In average you will save 15 gallons of water per load. Plus, you will save time.
3. Hang Outside to Dry - Get a cloths line or rack to dry your cloths. Your cloths will last longer and you will save money
4. Turn off computers at night - don't just put them to sleep. You will save an average of 4 cents a day which ads up to $14.60 a year.
5. Use Both Sides of Paper - if you have a printer with a double sided print option use it. You will save half of the amount of paper you would have normally used. Then when your done bring it to the recycle bin.
6. Get rid of baths - Don't take baths, take showers. You will in average save about half the amount of water that you would if you were taking a bath.
7. Don't get bottled water - Instead of bottled water get a reusable container to carry water. Also you can get a filter to make your home tap taste more like bottled water. It is definitely more cost efficient.
8. Turn the water off when you brush - Your parents have said this before, now I say it. You will save 4 gallons of water doing this alone.
9. Shorten your shower - Every minute you cut from your shower is roughly 5 gallons of water. The less time your shower takes, the lower your impact on the environment.
10. Recycle Glass - If you do not recycle this, it will take a million years to decompose.
11. Don't Pre-Heat the Oven - unless needed, just turn the oven on after you put the dish in it. Also, to see if it's finished just look through the glass instead of opening it.
12. Use Warm or Cold Setting on Washer - instead of the hot cycle use the warm or cold setting. This will save a lot of energy a year.
13. Turn Down your Thermostat - Every degree lower in the winter or higher in the summer you put it is a 10% decrease on your energy bill.
14. Turn off your lights - An easy one. Turn off your lights when you are not using them. The benefits are obvious.
15. Get rid of junk mail - There are many services that can help you get rid of junk mail. That will lead to a lot less trees being cut down to take up room in your mailbox.
16. Use Matches instead of lighters - Lighters are usually considered disposable so they will most likely end up in land fills. You can use the cardboard matches which are much more eco-friendly because they are made of recycled material.
17. Don't get a paper phone book - Instead of getting a paper phone book. Use a online directory instead.
18. Give things away - Take things that you are not going to wear or use and give it to a charity or someone who will use it.
19. Go to a car wash - Going to a car wash is a lot more water efficient then washing your car at home.
20. Stop paper bank statements - Why waste paper getting your bank statement mailed to you when you can just check it out online.
21. Buy Rechargeable Batteries - Even though it will take a good investment to buy these you will find yourself gaining it back in no time.
22. Pay your Bills Online - If every house in the US did this then we would save 18 million trees every year.
23. Get a reusable bag - You can't recycle plastic bags, instead get yourself a reusable bag so that you won't have to worry about carrying your necessities.
24. Do Errands in Bulk - Make a list of the things you have to do, and see if you can fit a couple of those things together in one ride.
25. Inflate your Tires - If your tires are inflated at all times your car will run more miles on less gas.
26. Wrap Presents Creatively - Without going out to get wrapping paper you can use newspaper, an old map, or anything else. It would look a whole lot more creative.
27. Plant a Tree - It's good for the air, can keep you cool, and can increase your property value.
28. Buy Local Produce - Consider how much energy it takes for produce from china or any other country to come here. If you have the option to buy local, do it.
29. Walk or Ride Your Bike When you can - If you have to go somewhere close consider riding your bike or walking there instead of your car. It's better on the environment and healthier.

Ingatkan topik ape la 'GO GREEN' ni. Good topic. Sama-samalah kita kongsikan tips untuk alam sekitar yang lebih nyaman...

juga kepada sesapa yang mempunyai kemudahan dryer untuk mesin basuh mereka i would like to suggest not using dryer in drying your wet clothes because it releases carbon dioxide that can contribute in global warming. Lebih baik gunakan kuasa solar untuk mengeringkan pakaian …

Bini aku perah2 lebih kurang sidai aja tengah2 panas, abis cerita. Lagipun dyer ni high spinned, banyak guna karan dan jugak lekas terbakar.

Just wondering. Kenapa agaknya setiap sabtu dijadikan hari tanpa plastik bag dan sekiranya kita perlukan plastik beg, perlu membayar 20 sen. Apa significantnya Kerajaan Negeri Selangor melaksanakan kempen "Hari Tanpa Beg Plastik". Sure la orang gi shopping tak kan bawak beg untuk isi barang2 dapur. So, kena la kita keluarkan 20 sen untuk maybe 6-7 beg plastik that will cost rm1.40 lebih kurang.

Kenapa tak digalakkan shopping mall tu gunakan recycled paper bag untuk isi barang2 dapur tu? Just curious...

Pengalaman aku dalam bidang pembajaan:

- berhati2 dgn 100% baja organik. Stengah baja organik mengandungi pathogens (virus. fungi) kalo tak diproses. Ada juga baja organik yg mengandungi heavy metal (cadmium...) yg berlebihan.
- Sayugia amalkan kombinasi baja organo-kimia + additional beneficial microbes. Baja kimia murah sebab percentage nutrien tinggi. Tapi jangan taruh banyak. Baja organik nutrien % rendah tapi mesra tanah (menjana beneficial microbes).
- nutrien intake yg lebih seimbang membuatkan tanaman lebih sihat & lebih rintang kpd penyakit/serangga perosak. Bila nutrien kurang seimbang, tanaman lemah, penyakit datang, kena apply racun. And the vicious cycle continues...

Ni secara amat ringkas la. Ada syarahnya lagi. Kalo minat, buleh tanya....

back to basic tahun 60'an ....... agaknya beli roti canai kena bawa tin susu sebagai container mengisi kuah dal atau kari manakala roti canai dibungkus dgn daun simpok ......

memang senang reput plastik bag sekarang. especially plastik bag tesco. Saya memang selalu simpan plastik bagi lepas shopping sebab nak guna untuk buang sampah. Antara byk2 plastik beg, tesco punya siap berderai kalau dah berbulan2 disimpan.
