COVER STORY

APRIL 22

EARTH DAY Why is Earth Day celebrated?

It is celebrated in order to raise awareness about the earthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s condition, where it encourages us to reduce our pollution and recycle more. The idea is to make our planet earth better for this generation and more to come. It is so that everyone can participate in an attempt to make our global environment better. Earth Day is the perfect time to think outside the box.

What should we do? What are the consequences of our choices? What products are better for the earth? What should we avoid?

The answer to these questions is knowledge to educate ourselves. Knowledge is the power when it comes to saving our earth, so here are some of the things all of us can do to save our earth.

CAMPUSPLUS \\ APRIL 2012

A Dim Bulb

Our local hardware store probably sells a regular incandescent bulb compare to a compact fluorescent bulb. Experts say you may buy 10 or more of the cheaper bulbs over ten years, compared to only one of the more expensive type.

Keeping It Clean

Washers can use more than 50 gallons of water per load, so avoid washing a lot of small loads whenever possible. Also, be sure to choose the lowest level of water needed for each load, use warm water instead of hot, and set the rinse cycle to use cold water.

Get a Charge out of it

Never throw spent batteries in the trash. They contain mercury, a hazardous substance that will leak into groundwater or be burned and released into the air. Don’t go there and try to switch to rechargeable batteries.

Sticker Shock

As fuel prices increase it will be even smarter to own fuelefficient vehicles. Check the mileage ratings when you buy a car and compare the efficiency of your favourite models before you purchase. If gas goes up to RM12 a gallon, which one will you want to have in your garage?

The Running Faucet

Do you leave the water running while you brush your teeth for 2 minutes? Nearly ten gallons of water just slid down the drain. Remember, you pay for that! Now, think about saving water when you shave, wash dishes, do laundry, water the lawn, wash the car, hose off the sidewalks.

Idle Time

Ever wonder if you should leave the car running while you wait for somebody? Leave it on if you’ll be there less than a minute, otherwise it’s more efficient to turn it off and restart it when you’re ready to go.

Cold Food

Snip Six-Pack Rings

Styrofoam Last a Really, Really long time

Recycle Paper

Refrigerator temperatures should be set at about 40 degrees, give or take a degree or two. Freezer temps between 0 and 5 degrees are just right. Colder settings waste energy and won’t help food.

Try 500 years or more. Think about millions of burger boxes, packing peanuts, and take-out containers, sitting in landfills, not biodegrading. Then buy eggs in cardboard, rather than Styrofoam, containers.

Reusable and Unbleached

Store food in bowls or Tupperware that can be reused endlessly. Use unbleached coffee filters (not bleached). Use more waxed paper that is biodegradable (instead of foil and plastic wrap).

Shopping Bag

Recycle both paper and plastic shopping bags. Decline bags for smaller purchases such as stationeries, greeting cards, etc.

Those innocent looking soft plastic holders for soft drink cans and other products can entangle birds, fish, and small animals. Snip apart each ring before throwing it in the trash, or inquire whether they can be recycled locally.

Newspapers, junk mail, office papers, corrugated boxes, and paper bags are just a few of the items that can be recycled. Use local recycling facilities or call local authorities to learn about recycling options.

Recycle Glass, Plastic, and Cans .

Get your local recycling requirements for these items and recycle them every day. Collect cans and bottles when you travel, when you picnic.

Plant a tree Day

Here’s the best idea of all: Plant a tree, or two, or even three. They’re beautiful, they provide shade, consume CO2, and they produce oxygen.

Sam Worthington, Ralph Fiennes and Liam Neeson star once again as gods at war in “Wrath of the Titans,” under the direction of Jonathan Liebesman. A decade after his heroic defeat of the monstrous Kraken, Perseus (Worthington) —the demigod son of Zeus (Neeson)—is attempting to live a quieter life as a village fisherman and the sole parent to his 10-year old son, Helius. Meanwhile, a struggle for supremacy rages between the gods and the Titans. Dangerously weakened by humanity’s lack of devotion, the gods are losing control of the imprisoned Titans and their ferocious leader, Kronos, father of the long-ruling brothers Zeus, Hades (Fiennes) and Poseidon (Danny Huston). Perseus cannot ignore his true calling when Hades, along with Zeus’ godly son, Ares (Edgar Ramírez), switch loyalties and make a deal with Kronos to capture Zeus. Enlisting the help of the warrior Queen Andromeda (Rosamund Pike), Poseidon’s demigod son, Argenor (Toby Kebbell), and fallen god Hephaestus (Bill Nighy), Perseus bravely embarks on a treacherous quest into the underworld to rescue Zeus, overthrow the Titans and save mankind.
