Going Green









Lately, green technology is gaining momentum in the world regardless of any sectors.Social activists, politicians,environmentalists, students and many parties are looking forward to a much green world and the transformation is currently taking place.

Hmm... Where should I start from? Have you pulled your car to the gas station lately and been shocked by the high price of gasoline? At times, you would have thought of trading your car to get better mileage. Perhaps, you are worried that you car is contributing to the greenhouse effect! The automobile industry have the proper technology to address these concerns.


Yes, exactly the hybrid electric vehicle(HEV)!Frankly speaking, I have only a rough idea of how this car works. Interested in learning more about hybrid cars, just google it. Talking about hybrid cars, Toyota Prius third generation is expected to top the market as it is claimed to be more powerful, has clever-high efficiently tricks , blablabla....etc... So being Eco-friendly, support hybrid cars:)


Penang government dropped a bombshell to all plastic bags manufacturing companies as starting 1st of January 2011, everyday is no 'Plastic Bag' Day! This drastic action is indeed a laudable move it is another initiative to achieve a green-themed state. I support this!!! Anyways, we should not be surprised by this action because there are several countries in the world which have implemented this before, Germany for instance!! Don't be upset or angry, instead be proud as we are on the right track to reduce carbon emission because plastic bags are NOT BIODEGRADABLE.


Have you guys heard of Effective Microbes(EM)?

This microbes are actually created by a Japanese scientist which is dubbed as a magical enzyme. Let me tell: We can use EM to clean river in a form of mudball, cleaning dishes in the form of solution and etc... The image below is the picture of mudball. Again, Penang goverment used mudballs to combat pollution in the Juru river and Pinang river>>>>



Overall, when we speak about going green, we have to practice green too. Mahatma Gandhi once quoted, be the change you want to see in the world... So practise the followings:

  1. Say NO to open burning
  2. Use water wisely
  3. If possible, try collecting rain water
  4. Reuse waste water from laundry
  5. Switch off electrical appliances if not in use
  6. Practise car-pooling

Guys, that's all I can possibly think right now :) Go GREEN
