 That is one of the slogans of the trends that exist across the world. We can begin to reduce our plastic waste to not wear it but replace it.
1. Do not use plastic bags for shopping. Bring your own shopping bag that can always be used again.
2. Do not just throw away plastic bottle after drinking. Fill with water again and again, although not too many refill. Approximately 5 times disposable still okay. For the usual drink in the car, prepare a bottle is always fully charged.
3. It’s better to buy a drink bottles that can be refilled and do not always have to buy another bottle of mineral water.
4. In western countries many cafes like Starbucks have started to allow customers to bring their own mugs or better to fill a coffee Thermos. Plastic bags can still be used again. But if the plastic glass can only once.
Sometimes it is also difficult if not inserted with an incentive to the customer. Yet if we do not use plastic bags or plastic cup of cafe will also reduce their costs thereby increasing profits.
So in western countries have a lot of entrepreneurs who want to come help provide incentives such as supermarkets which offer a discount when not using their plastic bags such as Aldi or Albertsons. IKEA instead will force customers to pay for plastic bags. With this IKEA expects customers will reduce consumption of plastic bags which reach 70 million bags per year just for the United States.
Singapore began to assign a particular day as “Bring Your Own Bag” Day, where customers are required to bring their own pockets and who does not carry required to pay the 30 cents that will be used for environmental activities. Shopping bags that can be reused now a best seller in Singapore. Continue reading Solution to reduce plastic waste
 Prototype of solar-powered airplane, Solar Impulse, successfully underwent the first flight test in Switzerland, with a speed of 45 kilometers per hour.
The project coordinator who helped lead the project said that Solar Impulse takeoff smoothly at Payerne Air Field. With the power 10 electric motors, light aircraft with a passenger and the pilot climbed slowly up to 1200 meters above sea level and landing after the air for 87 minutes.
Team of 70 people have worked seven years to build this solar plane and have a dream that there will be solar powered aircraft that travel the world in 2013.
Wingspan is almost the same aircraft with the Airbus A340 and weighs 1600 kilograms. Part-wing aircraft fitted 12,000 solar cells that can fill an electric motor and battery weighing 400 pounds.
 Using nature source to clean the nature is the most appropriate method. When the territorial sea of a country is often marred by the tanker-oil tanker carrying crude oil from some countries to other countries, micro bacteria who live freely in the sea could be used to extract the oil at sea more quickly.
Name of the bio remediation process, which means eliminating pollutants by biological processes. Bio degradation is the decomposition process of oil at sea with biological materials, one with bacteria. Within three years study, it is discovered 182 new species and 53 genera in three areas of the sea territorial which became the main route of tankers, namely the Malacca Strait, Sunda Strait, and the Lombok Strait.
Instead of thinking about materials with chemical substances to clean the sea and ended up re-contaminate, it’s better utilize the wealth of marine bacteria. Fumiyoshi Okazaki, one of the researchers from Japan Nite, presents the research, titled “Diversity and Functional Analysis of Petroleum Hydrocarbon-Degrading Bacterial Communities in Coastal Zones of Indonesia.” The study centered on the Straits of Malacca and Lombok Straits mentions the role of Acinetobacter and Alcanivorax a very dominant role in bio degradation. Natural microbes that are responsible for remediation of oil. The population of bacteria are constantly working and levels of n-Alkanes in constantly also decreased after seven days incubation period.
 The Uses of solar cells as an energy source for vehicle in the Shell Eco-marathon competition 2010 in America proved more frugal. Among the 48 participants with a variety of vehicle types of conventional or alternative fuels, solar cell vehicle that design by student at Purdue University from the State of Indiana, United States, proved to be most efficient with a mileage equivalent to 1933.5 kilometers per liter of gasoline.
Traveled distance of 1933.5 kilometers per liter is calculated equivalent to 4548 miles per gallon (mpg) targeting 4913 mpg mileage. The participation of SEM for the third time believes that solar cell energy source capable of becoming an alternative fuel vehicle in the future.
In Asia or other tropical regions with abundant sunshine, solar cells should be further developed. At the same categories for gasoline-fueled vehicle types reach the distance to 1057.5 kilometers per liter.
In SEM America in 2009, a team from Laval University is a winner with a distance of 1172.2 kilometers traveled per liter. Category use of hydrogen fuel at American SEM 2010 achieve the distance equivalent to 331.99 miles per gallon of gasoline. For the category of urban concepts, student team Mater Dei High School Indiana became the winner with a gasoline-fueled vehicles. The distance reached 185.87 kilometers per liter.
SEM American venue in 2010 in Houston is the first time using public facilities such as highways circling the city park Discovery Green, Houston. Shell Party rate, this is the inspiration for the next administration. Competition on the highway has become the most tangible demonstration to launch and create innovations for vehicles with priority given to energy efficiency.
 Facebook, one of the major social networking site that is currently growing rapidly, a few time ago announced plans to build large data centers in Oregon, USA. What is interesting is that all servers using the servers efficient plan in terms of consumption of electric energy to serve the millions of people communicate with each other, one of them is you.
Though seen with the use of environmentally friendly energy-efficient servers, but not enough for a data center, including one who consumes large amounts of electricity for the servers, cooling systems, and backup power device to be environmentally friendly, because the resources and processes which occurs at power plants must also environmentally friendly.
For those of you who feel concerned with the environment, there is one thing you can possibly make use of considerations with your facebook account. Because, based on information from Greenpeace, Facebook will rely on electricity supply for its data center from power plants that burn coal and increase carbon emissions to join the millions of tons of CO2 that have been scattered in the atmosphere beforehand.
PacifiCorp, an electric company of choice for Facebook to electricity supply, is a company which amounted to 83% of the electricity it generates comes from burning coal, geothermal and natural gas.
It remains unclear what underlies Facebook also choose to add the CO2 released into the atmosphere by selecting PacifiCorp. Presumably because of the cost of the power plant provides the best option for Facebook to grow more quickly by investing a lightweight.
 The electronic cigarette is a smokeless cigarette or e-cigarette, and it is another choice for cigarette smokers in the world. The Electronic Cigarette makes effectively simulate the experience of smoking an actual cigarette, without any of the health or legal issues on traditional cigarettes.
The Electronic cigarettes taste much like traditional cigarettes and function very different as usual. The electronic cigarettes do not burn any tobacco, but activate a flow censor that produce a water vapor containing propylene glycol, nicotine, and a scent that simulates the flavor of tobacco. It’s means that electronic cigarettes is green smoke e-cigarettes that give your nicotine fix in order to avoiding the cancer causing agents that found in traditional cigarettes such as glue, tar, hydrocarbons and hundreds of additives.
The benefits of e-cigarettes is become healthier than using traditional cigarettes and the fact is that electronic cigarettes are legal, because Electronic cigarettes do not involve tobacco, you can free smoke them anytime and anywhere than traditional cigarettes which prohibited such as restaurants, bars, the work place, even on airplanes. In other hand, electronic cigarettes allow you to smoke without fears of inflicting harm on others.
The refillable cartridges of e-cigarette come in many flavors as well as nicotine strengths. You can any taste such as menthol, apple, regular and strawberry flavored cartridges and nicotine strengths included. The electronic cigarettes are technically smoking alternative for them to a smoking cessation. The range of nicotine strengths potential as an aid for those who attempts to quit smoking.

 There are another way to save fuel vehicle and this way can also be done. Air conditioning (Air Conditioner), components such as additional character only, it also consumes a significant fuel. Can even be a producer of CO2 emissions if the refrigerant leakage occurs.
According to the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL), energy laboratory owned by the United States Department of Energy, states that air conditioners consume a lot of vehicles used petrol nearly 6% of annual total United States demand. Approximately 25 billion liters of gasoline burned by the air conditioner continues to work while vehicles are still on the road.
The condition is exacerbated by leakage that may occur with the air conditioner will add 50 million metric tons of CO2 emissions annually.
The amount of gasoline consumed by air conditioning and much CO2 is released, making NREL should facilitate a program to make more efficient air conditioner.
Various methods and ideas have been tested by researchers at the laboratory. One of them is conditioned by adding a redesigned thermoelectric module and no longer use the refrigerant as working fluid. The other method is to use glass coatings and paints that can withstand sunlight and lowering temperatures by 34%.
NREL seem to prefer to try the first method, as evidenced by his cooperation with Ford’s plan that previously have received funding from the DOE to develop a thermoelectric system.
If the collaboration is to stage the production, then each vehicle would be far more fuel efficient.
 On the latest estimates, amounting to 5% of electricity usage in the United States by electronic equipment connected to the network is left in standby mode condition.
A phenomenon, which according to experts, including fear, as well as rising oil prices and global warming.
According to the United States Department of Energy, DOE, in the year 2010 this percentage could reach 20%.
In California alone, a proposal related to the matters have been approved by policy makers. The proposal proposes to add vampire electronics labels to an electronic product, which explains how much energy is used in the charger, computer, DVD player, PlayStation, microwave or coffee maker, at the time of ON, OFF or in standby.
Electronic equipment using displays such as the appointment time or condition of such equipment also consumes electricity during standby. Not much different from the case with equipment that require battery recharging, such as cell phones, PDAs, laptops, etc., also consume electricity, even though the equipment has reached the capacity of the filling.

 More sunlight shining on the ocean rather than land. This is one of the reasons why the ice in the north and south poles are not expected to melt quickly on the current scale. All because the ice has been a sort of giant reflective glass so that sunlight can be reflected back into space so that the earth is not too hot. The problem is when the ice melts and the ocean is higher, the sun will be absorbed by the oceans, so that ocean temperatures also increased. With rising sea temperatures also accelerate the melting of ice.
What if we could take the benefit from the beam of sunlight that fell into the sea? United Arab Emirates state is planning this collaboration with CSEM to create a prototype of a solar island in the desert first. Only one-tenth of the prototype that will be implemented.
Workings method of the Island Solar is hot sunlight that is absorbed by the solar panels will be used to heat water that will rotate the turbine for electricity. In addition, Island Solar can be used for desalination of sea water by evaporation.
This is interesting also because the sun is mostly found around the equator. Some country in the middle of the equator can learn from the UAE to be implemented. Moreover, the sea is very large. Maybe it can also combine with wave power later. The more increase and sophisticated technology so that we must be able to get benefits from these technologies.
