in order to overcome global warming, we should have a good plan to make a save house, save house means house that had low consumption on electricity and so many other, check the picture below for green house art sample,
Cell phone concept designs are often crazy yet cool. When concept phones are also eco-friendly, then their awesomeness rocks the charts. These 15 futuristic green gadgets are creatively cool concept cell phones and accessories that we’d love to see developed and on the mainstream market soon.
Designers Seungkyun Woo and Junyi Heo were inspired by photosynthesis. The Leaf cell phone is a wearable bracelet phone that accumulates power from solar cells on its front panel. As a backup, it also can be recharged with electricity. The Leaf offers high-tech fashion and function, however its main objective is to “remind people that they can contribute to energy efficiency.” (more…)
Here is tips to make our heat pump work efficiently. With snow possible accumulating in your town, you see people shoveling out their cars and sidewalks, but here’s an efficiency tip for you – don’t neglect your heat pump.
Be sure to clear an area around your heat pump so that it can ‘breathe’.
Just like we told you back in the fall to clear the leaves from out and around your unit, don’t forget to shovel a path around it during wintry weather.
As temps rise during the day, snow begins to melt but will refreeze at night to ice. This ice can build up inside and prohibit the fan from running. Heat pumps will go through an automatic defrost cycle but be sure to inspect them for ice buildup.
There are also heat pump deflectors, but once again, don’t place too close to the heat pump as to restrict the air flow it needs.

Everywhere you turn in Indonesia there is evidence that society in general has lost touch with its roots. The pursuit of temporal wealth by the rich coupled with the pursuit of a living wage by the poor has devastated our environment. There is little recognition that our very survival depends on mutual and communal action.
The needs of the community at large are rarely, if ever, addressed. These have nothing to do with sectarian interests, be they along religious or political fault lines because myopic greed recognises no demarcation. Cities lack parks, those essential green lungs for our physical well-being whilst their replacements, air-conditioned malls, contribute to global warming, increased flooding, traffic woes and mental malaise. And there is no co-ordinated public transport system, at any level. The devastation of forests along the shores and in the hinterlands has resulted in increased slaughter from the elements. Mangroves no longer impede erosion or tsunamis and tropical forests no longer provide clean water or safe havens for protected species. Landslips and floods kill hundreds every year.
The plundering of irreplaceable natural resources puts communities at risk – think Freeport and Sidoarjo.
As Jakartass, I’ve commented on various issues, given links where appropriate and offered moral support. Other bloggers, such as Indcoup, Greenstump and Yosef Ardi, have occasionally touched on environmental issues. We all have a personal perspective on life here so it is rare that we’ve found an issue we can simultaneously blog. There is only so much an individual can do.
In my researches of various posts about the environment in Indonesia I have come to realise that there is a wealth of information, skills and wisdom on tap, but these taps need to be turned on.
Discussions with a number of online colleagues have shown that there is scope for collective consciousness raising. As regular contributors to hyperspace, aware of its power to network, we have registered the domain greenindonesia.net . This is intended to be a wiki-type blog, albeit with a WordPress template.
There are a number of issues which need to be addressed, such as:
Transport
Recycling
Fair Trade
Food Issues
Urbanisation
Eco Tourism
Nuclear Power
Marine ecology
Rain Forest Action
Parks and Playspaces …..
No one person or organisation can address all of these issues. For that reason, we invite interested individuals and organisations to co-ordinate and edit sections of this blog.
Posts could focus on issues, news, individuals or whatever seems to be relevant. It is our hope that in publishing the collective writings focussed on what we believe constitute a sane future for Indonesia, we may be able to encourage society to actually work towards that future.

Another day, another unnecessary loss of lives: 24 people killed and 10 still missing in floods and landslides on the small island of Tahuna off Indonesia’s Sulawesi. The date is January 12, 2007.
At an alarming rate, Indonesia is replacing Bangladesh and India as the most disaster-prone nation on earth. Whenever the word Indonesia appears on the list of headlines on Yahoo News, chances are that another enormous – and often unnecessary – tragedy has occurred on one of the islands of this sprawling archipelago.
Airplanes are disappearing or sliding off the runways, ferries are sinking or simply decomposing on the high seas, trains crash or get derailed on the average of one per week Illegal garbage dumps bury desperate communities of scavengers under their stinking contents. Landslides are taking carton-like houses into ravines; earthquakes and tidal waves are swallowing up coastal cities and villages. Forest fires from Sumatra are choking huge areas of Southeast Asia.
The scope of disasters is on a scale so vast that they cannot be discounted simply as the nation’s bad luck or as the wrath of gods or nature. Corruption, incompetence and gross indifference on the part of ruling elites and government officials are to blame. Poverty, in combination with a dearth of sound public projects as well as kleptomania, is taking the lives of hundreds of thousands of desperate Indonesian men, women and children.
Since the 1965 U.S.-sponsored military coup that deposed Sukarno and installed the military regime of staunchly anti-communist and corrupt pro-market dictator Suharto, Indonesia has escaped serious scrutiny by the international media and governments. After Suharto was forced to step down in 1998, Indonesia has been hailed by the international media as an emerging and increasingly tolerant democracy: yet the only political parties allowed to compete in elections are those that are staunchly pro-business.

what is global warming? in simple way we could say that global warming are a global disaster that caused by human. human are unwise using an energy especilly carbon fuel heating the earth temperature increasing the sea level.
here a few simple tips to stop global warming :
Ok, ok, we know what you’re thinking. You’re sat in a chair, staring at a computer. The jungles of the Amazon are thousands of miles away and all you have is your imagination. But for whatever reason, have you ever wondered what would happen if you were lost there? With nothing but walls of foliage and sounds of the undergrowth, it’s not hard to see why on many an occasion it has tested man’s ability to the limit. So from the downright obvious, to the slightly more obscure, we present 19 tips to survive if you’re lost in the jungle.
1. First, you should figure out where you came from and trace it back to a recognizable travel trail. Of course a map, a compass and a GPS unit would probably solve your problem much easier.
If you’re not part of a group and making noise would only attract animals you’ll have to pick a direction and stick to it. Head downhill to find a water stream, then follow it until it becomes a river, which will lead you out of the jungle. Choose the direction of travel wisely and if it turns out to be bad, quickly come up with a new plan.
2. With low visibility, you may need to rise above the canopy by heading part-way up a hill or ridge to get your bearings. A slight depression in the jungle where one side is higher than the other suggests there could be a river so go ahead and follow it. The wider the river, the more chances you have to find civilization.
3. Falling trees and branches are the biggest killers of people in the jungle. Therefore you need to choose your night camp on clear grounds and away from trees. Stay alert, move slowly and steadily through the dense jungle and stop periodically to listen and take your bearings.

4. Protect yourself from mosquitoes. Malaria has caused more deaths than all the wars in history combined and if you’re unlucky in the jungle, you might catch it too. In the jungle, using mosquito nets are the best way to prevent you from being bitten.
If you don’t have a net, other options include sap from a camphor tree or eucalyptus oil. However, don’t count on them too much.
5. Keep your footwear and your clothes on you, when you get into the water. Currents, submerged branches that can pull you under, crocodiles, leeches, electric eels, anacondas, piranhas and stingrays, are common in the waters of the jungle. Tread with caution. Jungles are extremely dangerous places.

6. You’ll have to resist the heat and keep your clothes on you. Excessive amounts of sun could lead to sunstroke, sunburn, heatstroke and dehydration. You should protect your head and neck from direct sunlight, drink plenty of water.
7. A machete and a knife always come in handy to cut through the vegetation or to build a shelter where you can stay dry and get some rest at night. Don’t cut unnecessarily and conserve your energy. Also, make sure you don’t make too much noise when you cut, because sound carries long distances in the jungle and wild animals like jaguars may track you down. (more…)
some member of www.kaufda.de send us an email about how internet activity especially blogging can affect the nature. this is very awesome program that concern to the nature and we are interested in that program because this daydaily.com are care to the nature, just way same as their vision so daydaily.com definitely join with them
more information about their program, here i copy their email :
Hi,
just stumbled over your blog http://daydaily.com – nice work!
I am part of a young team in Germany, working for an initiative called “Make it green!”. Our goal is to contribute our part in reducing the carbon footprint by raising awareness of the severe environmental damage caused by carbon emissions. One of our activities is to raise awareness of the carbon emissions resulting from the use of the internet – specifically of blogs. A blog with 15,000 visits a month has a yearly carbon dioxide emissions of 8lb. To neutralise these emissions we have created “My blog is carbon neutral” buttons so bloggers can demonstrate that they care about the environment and the carbon footprint of their blogs. We present them a small but nontheless worthy solution to contribute to environmental issues. Our idea is to show possibilities to make a contribution to protect the environment.
To find out how you can participate please visit http://www.kaufda.de/umwelt/carbon-neutral/how-you-can-join
And how do we actually neutralize your blog’s carbon footprint? We are planting trees in cooperation with the Arbor Day Foundation in Plumas National Forest in Northern California for our project to neutralize the carbon footprint of blogs. Thousands of wildfires burned down many national forests over the past ten years and 88.000 acres of Plumas’ were destroyed by two fires in 2007. To help replanting we need the support of bloggers all over the world! For every participating blog we plant a tree. One blog – one tree.
Why do we do this? We are a German based company called kaufDA, which provides advertisement brochures of local stores online to help consumers search for specific products and find good deals in their neighborhood. This reduces the amount of brochures printed and so the project helps the environment by reducing unnecessary paper in mailboxes. An American on average receives 41 pounds of junk mail per year. This has the same carbon footprint as burning six gallons of gasoline.
We’d be glad to plant your tree! Help us and show that you care! Every tree counts!
Best wishes from Germany,
Christin

so what you’re waiting for? join them right now and make your blog as a carbon neutral blog
A garden is a place where a number of plants are planted in a specific manner for the purpose of aesthetic beauty. Just by planting some plants and lawn one cannot make a garden look beautiful. Making a garden requires some amount of plant knowledge and the ability to arrange the plants aesthetically.
If you wish to employ a garden contractor, it is best to look out for one who has had a reasonable amount of experience in making a garden and one who has trained staff. The reputed contractors too can give you a lot of trouble by not adhering to the specifications that are to be followed in making the garden. For example, if a tree requires a pit of 3′ x 3′ x 3′ to be dug, he may dig a pit of 3′ x 3′ x 2′ or he may dig a pit of the correct specification but while filling it with fresh mixture of garden earth and manure, he will fill the bottom part with the excavated infertile soil. (There is nothing wrong however in using the excavated earth if it is of good quality.) Both will not let the plant grow properly.
It is best to spend some extra money and have a good garden made rather than be fooled by the enormously low amount quoted by some garden contractors.
You can however make your own garden in the following way.
Draw out a landscaping plan for your garden. You do not need to be an expert in drawing. A rough sketch will do. A number of factors will have to be considered in making a landscape plan, such as the topography of the are, the location of the house or building, whether the area is in a sunny of a shady location, the amount of land available in making a garden, the availability of water, the time that you can spend in maintaining the garden and most important of all the amount of money that you are willing to shell out in making the garden.
