Conclusion

The exhibition has made me know a lot more things. The exhibition is coming soon and I can only hope for it to go well. Well, these are some things I have learnt in the process of preparing the exhibition.

CO2 affects a lot on Global Warming.

Indonesia produces so many Carbon Dioxide until it is the world’s third largest Carbon Dioxide producer.

Trees convert Carbon Dioxide into Oxygen in a process called photosynthesis.

Cars do not release a lot of Carbon Dioxide, they produce more Carbon Monoxide.

Cow farts contain Carbon Dioxide!

Carbon Dioxide affects us anywhere we go.

People who live near factories can feel shaking, there are a lot of smoke even floods every once in a while.

The Action

We are going to give people small trees for free. It is for the people to plant at home. The small trees include small pots. We are going to stick stickers on the pots which say: "I am saving the world… ‘coz I have a tree in my backyard". We haven’t known if Ibu Maytha agrees with that. We want to prepare 100 trees. We will buy small ones, but that still help our environment. Planting trees is a fun way to help our local environment.

In doing this action, we are facing a problem. Our problem is that we need budget to buy the trees, pots and make the stickers. It is estimated that we are going to spend a total of Rp.200,000.-. We hope this will be a good action, I also hope that by us doing this action people will be encouraged to plant more trees and will realize the importance of planting trees in order to save our local environment from too much CO2.

A Slideshow about CO2

The Experiment

My group decided to make an unusual experiment. The experiment is useful too, because we will also get a lot of information. Our experiment will be shown in a movie. The movie will be a mixture of many small clips. The small clips were taken during our trip to the ‘Good Year’ factory in Bogor. We actually wanted to go to a factory in Citeureup but that was not possible. So, my group and I went to the ‘Good Year’ factory today (Saturday, May 12, 2007). We didn’t get in the factory and took videos inside because on Saturdays and Sundays, there are no staffs working there, it’s their holiday. So, we asked five people who live around there many things about the factory. We asked them their opinion. We asked them the effects of the factory towards them from the pollution that the factory produces such as, sickness caused by that and the effect of the pollution to where we live. We also asked other questions about what is happening around the ‘Good Year’ factory. They gave us many interesting information. We also found out a lot of new information. We were really glad to be able to do that trip.
