Ways to Protecting the Environment

Environment is everything that around people such as land, water, solar energy, minerals, flora and fauna that grow in the ground or sea that affect the development of human life. The healthy environment means the clean environment and not contaminated, and that is the environment we expect. But various factors to make the environment are not healthy. Such as lack of conscious to throwing garbage in its place, do deforestation, construction of factories, and using the product is unfriendly environment. Then for the achievement of the clean environment needs to be some way or actions that could keep the environment we keep it clean.

First of all, the habit of throwing garbage in its place can should be a concern people to love the cleanness of the environment and exempted of problems caused by junk such as flood.  One of the causes of flooding in various regions is because many garbage that littered thus impeding the flow of water. This is one of the bad behavior seemed to have become culture of Indonesian society, especially in urban areas. Planting trees (reforestation), bare land can cause variety of natural disasters such as flood and landslides. To overcome that, we must make an effort reforestation (replanting of trees). Currently the movement of planting tree in Indonesia was made by the government and society.

Also prohibit deforestation, The bare forest can cause various natural disasters. To minimize this, there must be a ban on forest clearing followed by strict legal action. Applying the selective logging system, not all the logging trees was banned, there is also are allowed. That was usually done by an individual or company who had permission from the authorities. If want to perform the cutting of trees, then it should be applied to selective cutting. And using recycled products, the majority of recycled product made from plastic this much better than plastic throw into the ground. As we know that is difficult to disentangle the plastic in the soil and can damage soil fertility.

In addition terracing, terracing is one way to preserve the natural environment by planting various kinds of trees in areas that have sloping topography. This is to minimize the natural disasters landslide that could happen at any time. Doing plant trees in each house and garden city to reduce air pollution caused by vehicle fumes. And the construction of settlements should pay attention to drainage.

In conclusion, the clean environment is hope for everyone because a clean environment is very good for our health as well. Based on the above ways we can know how to protect the environment. Because the environment is a place for all living things then should we keep for the survival. If from now we are not protecting the environment, what will happen to the environment and our earth later?. Protecting the environment by doing small things can have a great impact in the future.

Review

Siapa yang tidak tahu film The Nun, film yang tayang tahun 2018 ini telah banyak menjadi perbincangan masyarakat. Film ini merupakan lanjutan dari film The Conjuring 2 yang bercerita tentang hantu yang bernama Valak. Dalam The Conjuring 2 Valak telah meneror sebuah keluarga dan ternyata terror Valak memang sudah ada sejak lama. Karena di film The Nun ini saya mengira bahwa film ini akan menceritakan tentang awal mula Valak ketika masih hidup sampai dia meninggal dan menjadi iblis, tapi ternyata saya salah Valak sudah menjadi iblis dalam film The Nun iblis yang berusaha untuk merasuki manusia dan meneror hidup manusia. 

The Nun film bergenre horror yang selalu memiliki kejutan disetiap adegannya, hantu yang selalu datang dari arah tak terduga, permainan kamera yang membuat jumpscare serta tata cahaya yang remang-remang menambah suasana kelam sepanjang film. The Nun disebut juga sebagai cerita horor supranatural yang menggabungkan narasi fiksi, horror, thriller serta sejarah. Selain valak ada tokoh lain yaitu Daniel yang menurut saya konfliknya kurang jelas kenapa dia selalu menyerang Pastur Burke (Demian Bichir). Film yang seharusnya memberikan jawaban tentang Valak namun terasa kurang mendalam.

College Life: what do you imagine?

When you graduated from senior high school you will enter the level of college education. So, what do you think about college life? Is it more fun than school? Is it more difficult than school? Or is life in the campus same as in films….

College is definitely different from school. At school you are educated for discipline, obeying the rules, and still under the responsibility of the teacher. Meanwhile, at the college you have grown up and must be independent in anything without always being assisted by the teacher. When you are in school you have to go to class on time and go home with a specified time, however college isn’t like that if you come late you will not get nagged. You have more free time at the college.

Let me tell you a little bit about my experience to be a college student. Early in college you will surely found new friends, new schedules, new lessons, new environments, all new (and new clothes maybe hehe..). I am studying at Gunadarma University, in the first semester is a semester that is not too heavy even though one week full, but your burden was only the assignment of lecturers. The second to fifth semester your schedule is not too full in a week, but when sixth semester you will face scientific research task it is similar to thesis or it could be said as practiced before making a thesis. Maybe at other campuses there is no this task but Gunadarma is different from the others. Here is, I think the hardest semester because I’m not only doing assignments from lecturers every week, but also have to be diligent in guidance with scientific research advisor. What is the power of student can only accept all of existing tasks.

When I wrote this blog I was in seventh semester. Thank god my scientific research was finished. In the seventh semester my schedule is only three days, but because at the moment I am working as an Assistant Laboratory there is no holiday for me. Unexpectedly, I will go to the eighth semester and face the thesis may everything can go well. Ok…That’s all for me, whatever choices you take you have to go through it, never regret to doing it.

WHAT IS THE PASSIVE VOICE?

This time I would like to share my task about Passive Voice. Passive voice is the sentence with the object that the action is performed on. How to formulate the passive voice?

1.      Put the object of the verb at the beginning of the sentence.

2.      Conjugate the verb "to be" in the same tense as the active sentence.

3.      Put the main verb in past participle form (V3).

 

The formula is:  S + to be + Past Participle form

  

Passive voice is emphasized rather than its subject. Simply, the subject receives the action of the verb. 

For example: A book was written

The focus in this sentence is on the action of  a book that was written; however, the readers do not know who wrote the book.

Therefore, this is the link on youtube about Passive Voice lesson. Hopefully the video helpful to you. Happy watching  :)..
