Paper for our generation is something that has become mundane and the everyday that we often use paper without thinking much about the consequences. I tried to summary some facts about paper that we all understand the importance of reducing paper usage and recycle used paper. Hopefully useful and deepen our knowledge that we are more aware of the environment.
Production of paper:
* Trunk 1 (wood) to produce 16 reams of paper
* Trunk 1 can produce the needed oxygen to breathe 3 people
* To produce 1 ton of paper, it takes 3 tons of wood and 98 tons of other raw materials
* Every hour, the world lost because of 1732.5 hectares of forest to be harvested raw materials of paper
* Paper industry around the world using 35% of all commercial timber harvest each year
* The paper industry spent 670 million tons of wood to produce 178 million tons of pulp and 278 million tons of paper and paperboard
* 1 ton of paper = 400 reams = 200,000 sheets of
* To produce 3 sheets of paper required 1 liter of water
* To produce 1 Kilogram of paper required 324 liters of water (environment Canada)
* 95% of paper made from wood fiber materials
* To produce 1 ton of paper produced carbon dioxide (CO2) for about 2.6 tons or equal to the emissions produced by cars during the 6 months.
* To produce 1 ton of paper, produced approximately 72,200 liters of liquid waste and 1 ton of solid waste
* The paper industry is a user of energy to fuel the world’s largest 3rd (American Forest and Paper Association)
* Once the paper is only used for writing, now Packaging industry uses 41% of the total use of paper

Warming of Earth’s southern hemisphere currently estimated to affect a layer of ice at the South Pole or Antarctica. Oxford University researcher team and the University of Cambridge, England, recently revealed the results of a study that states west Antarctic ice sheet began to be unstable. The team developed a model to explore changes in the ice shelf from the bottom up to the floating layer.
Volume of ice layers found in western Antarctica is equivalent to sea level rise 3.3 meters. The model developed shows instability in the ground line caused by gradual climate change. It may cause division ice. The models of global climate is often used assumption that when the world warms, the ice sheets will melt with the stable, and cause sea level rise gradually.
The structure of ice is much more complex. We need to do more work to build better models of ice sheet behavior. Then to predict the behavior of ice in the future as the impact of climate change.
Marine algae have great potential in an effort to combat global warming. Easy living organisms in the ocean has an enormous capacity to absorb carbon dioxide and can be processed into biofuels, environmentally friendly fuels.
Laboratory-scale research conducted Agency for the Assessment and Application of Technology (BPPT) prove algae (algae) in the sea enlarged 20-25 times in just 15 days with feed carbon dioxide (CO2).
The algae of the species Chaetoceros sp. With initial cell count 40,000 cells per milliliter after a registration of CO2 into 780,000 cells per ml in 15 days, even Chlorella sp. With initial cell count 40,000 cells per ml of a million cells per ml in 15 days to Implementation of Carbon Emission Reductions in Global Warming Mitigation Efforts.

Premier Energy acquired Karbon CJSC, an ideal investment that will make oil and gas exploration and production from the foundations of North-Kopanskoye Oilfield amicable and easy. An investment that will definitely have an impact on the oil and gas scene in Russia since the company is well verse in its trade with scores of experience that has made it reach its present level of success.
It is a great opportunity for Premier Energy in the development of a new and improved commercial natural gas and crude oil reserve once it has been warranted to do so.

How many sheets of paper that you use every day? How many cups of coffee you drink everyday? How much you enjoy fried foods? How much material from palm oil are you using? Very much perhaps. Especially if you live in the big city life style could not be separated from the goods.
However, did you know that by reducing the consumption of coffee, palm oil and its derivatives materials, and the use of paper, you can take to save the forests in Sumatra? Because the forests that used to be a habitat for many species of animals and soil water storage is now much changed its function, good for coffee plantations, palm oil, or tree of paper raw materials to meet the needs of the city. No wonder the forests in some inland areas damaged.
The situation is now Sumatra forests requires attention from many people. The production of paper, palm oil, coffee and processed for the purposes of urban society has been destroying forests in Sumatra. May campaign has held as the title “Let’s Explore the Forest Sumatra “. The campaign carried the WWF was held with the aim of raising public awareness that their lifestyle affects the forest ecosystem in Sumatra.
