Plastic free in University Science Malaysia

Good news where Universiti Sains Malaysia for the their campaign to stop using plastic bags. What better way to practice environmental consciousness beginning from young and bright minds, like this university's students. I think this is one of the many activities that parents should encourage their children to take part in. ( This kind of activity shows more action rather than just only words).

The students found that a campaign to recycle plastic bags was ineffective and opted to not use plastic bags at all in the campus. So to replace the plastics bags to buy groceries and take-away food, the students promote greener ways of shopping like carrying a reusable shopping bag and bringing your own container to 'tapau' food. Good job USM!

What can be recycle?????

Paper

Newspapers, office paper, printer paper, magazines, brochures are some of the things that can be recycled. Collect these items and, whenever possible, try to separate them according to their grade.

Plastic

There is abundance of plastic that we can recycle. Everything from drink containers, detergent bottles, food wrappings, ice cream boxes and others are recyclable.

Corrugated Containers (Cardboard)

Whenever we buy new electrical equipment, or sometimes furniture, we usually get them in these cardboard boxes that no one seems to know what to do with other than throw away. Why not recycle them instead?

Glass

Jam containers and certain food items are still packed in bottles. Recycle these bottles or reuse them to store other food items.

Aluminium

They're also the most comman aluminium item found in most homes. Other alumium items such as pie plates, foil and broken furniture should be recyed if possible.

Clothing

Old clothing can be reused or donated to the needy. This way, you reduce landfill space, and you give the less fortunate something nice.

So??? Don't bin it, but recycle it!!!! ☺☺☺

The categories of recycle;

There are different categories of recycling like “primary recycling refers to the remaking of a material into the same material, for instance remaking a glass container into a new glass container; It’s also a process that can be repeated. Then, the secondary recycling refers to the process of remaking a material into a new different but related material, for example a newspaper can be recycled into cardboard, which can again be recycled into a another material of lesser quality. The third categories of ‘Tertiary recycling refers to employs the act of recycling only once, where for instance paper can be recycled into tissue paper. So, in the recycling program there are many ways how to solve the solid management for get the new product and unless the waste of raw material it.

3R PROGRAM

Recycle has yet to become a crucial issue in Malaysia. Nevertheless, it has to be taken into consideration and be dealt carefully as the country is still in its developing process. The process of recycling recylables like paper, plastic, glass and ferrous and non freeous metal general space requiment and planning, passive and active design of indoor enviroment control and also design concept are identified and analyzed in aidig the desin process.

So, the best practice to manage waste would be through reduce, reuse and recycle rather than disposal method confirm with basic of waste manegement. However, the goverment has taken initiative in promoting solid waste management and implemented it in the Malaysia plan in order to create a more sustainable enviroment for getting the Quality of life..

Recycling program

The good environment is significant in the world. Responsibility for the environment ultimately belongs to society. It’s because environment is significant to taking very well. Today the population has growth with such rapidity that an uncontrollable amount of garbage is being generated. Then, the recycling has become a common used more and more everyday. Its term used both in household and communities, by professional and nonprofessional, for education and as well as for economy, but has it really been justly used given its significant.

How to get the quality of life where the condition these happen????

The scene of destruction is seen five days after a landslide in a suburb of Kuala Lumpur December 11, 2008. A landslide struck an affluent suburb north of Kuala Lumpur during the weekend, killing four people, leaving one person missing, flattening 14 houses and forcing thousands out of their homes. These happen where all is Islamic will celebration of Aid-adha.

Why this situation was happen in Malaysia???

I think this happen because impact from the human activity and natural phenomena.


Malaysian rescue personnel from the Fire and Rescue Department search for a potential survivor at a damaged house hit by a landslide in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, 07 December 2008. A landslide occurred early morning 06 December destroyed 14 houses and claimed four lives, prompting the Malaysian government to ban all new hillside projects. The Malaysia government taking the strongly result for overcome this cases. It’s because one of the best way the government taking for lose the projects in hillside housing. So, what do your think about this way?? Then why the Malaysia government cannot taking this way after this tragedy was happen it.

What is the cause land slide was happen?
Property damage, injury, death and adversely affects a variety of resources in the disaster areas.

Hill Housing and Risk of Landslide??????

What is the landslide?

Generally, landslide is describe the down-slope of soil, rock and organic material under the influence of gravity.
Then the another word a landslide is a geological phenomenon which includes a wide range of ground movement, such as rock falls, deep failure of slopes and shallow debris flows, which can occur in offshore, coastal and onshore environments. So what do your thing about the landslide in the Malaysia???


Given the opinion of this issue about the Bukit Antarabangsaa and Higland Tower's??

Landslides are caused when the stability of a slope changes from a stable to an unstable condition. A change in the stability of a slope can be caused by a number of factors, acting together or alone.


Natural causes:

- Groundwater pressure acting to destabilize the slope
- Loss or absence of vertical vegetative structure, soil nutrients, and soil structure.
erosion of the toe of a slope by rivers or ocean waves
- weakening of a slope through saturation by snowmelt, glaciers melting, or heavy rains
earthquakes adding loads to barely-stable slopes
- earthquake-caused liquefaction destabilizing slopes (see Hope Slide)
volcanic eruptions

Human causes:

- vibrations from machinery or traffic
blasting
- earthwork which alters the shape of a slope, or which imposes new loads on an existing slope
- in shallow soils, the removal of deep-rooted vegetation that binds colluvium to bedrock
- Construction, agricultural, or forestry activities which change the amount of water which infiltrates into the soil.

what this mean is land slide???
