Green Tip 29: Don't Burn it, Back it Up!

REDUCE CD/DVD WASTE

It is estimated that American consumers buy about 1 billion CDs every year and most eventually end up in landfills. Since CDs are a mix of polycarbonate, plastic and aluminum, they don’t easily break down and are not easily recycled. They are also not biodegradable, so they won’t break down in landfills and when incinerated they release toxic fumes into the air.

Design Rumah Tumbuh

Banyak orang yang telah mendengar adanya istilah rumah tumbuh, tapi banyak juga yang tidak faham dengan apa yang di maksud dengan rumah tumbuh.
Lalu apa yang dimaksud dengan rumah tumbuh ..?
Kenapa disebut dengan rumah tumbuh...?
Sebenarnya rumah tumbuh adalah istilah untuk pembangunan rumah yang dilakukan secara bertahap yang terencana secara matang dari awal sesuai dengan dana yang tersedia, secara garis besar ada 2 macam design rumah tumbuh, yaitu jenis vertikal dan horizontal.
Rumah tumbuh vertikal
Ini biasanya dilakukan bagi mereka yang mempuyai lahan yang sempit sehingga tidak ada pilihan selain membangun ke atas.
Jenis ini butuh persiapan dengan dana awal yang lebih besar karena struktur bangunan harus sudah disiapkan  untuk rumah bertingkat, walaupun tidak dilaksanakan secara sekaligus ( bertahap )
Rumah tumbuh horizontal
Dilakukan oleh mereka yang punya lahan cukup luas sehingga masih cukup banyak ruang kosong untuk mengembangkan rumah sesuai dengan kebutuhan.
Jenis ini cenderung lebih murah dan mudah karena design awal untuk struktur hanyak diperuntukkan untuk rumah tidak bertingkat.

Dalam pembangunan rumah tumbuh ada beberapa hal yang harus diperhatikan baik dari sisi arsitektural  maupun dari sisi design struktural sesuai dengan perencanaan yang dimaksud.
Berikut langkah yang bisa dilakukan untuk membangun rumah tumbuh :
  1. Tentukan besaran dana yang akan digunakan
  2. Konsultasikan / rancang rumah anda dalam design yang utuh sesuai dengan keinginan ( tanpa melihat dana yang sudah ada )
  3. Pilah pilah bagian mana yang akan menjadi prioritas untuk lebih dulu dibangun.
  4. Tentukan pola pembangunan/tahapan dalam pengerjaan sehingga tidak perlu adanya pekerjaan bongkar pasang dalam kelanjutan pembangunan di tahap selanjutnya.
Usahakan menggunakan jasa profesional karena dalam pembangunan secara bertahap/tumbuh ada beberapa hal yang harus didesign dengan perhitungan terhadap kekuatan struktur dan tata ruang yang ada, misalnya :
  • Pondasi bangunan, harus diperhitungkan apakah  untuk rumah bertingkat atau tidak ( tumbuh vertikal atau horizontal ).
  • Struktur utama ( sloof, kolom, ring, balok serta kemungkinan adanya plat beton ) harus benar benar diperhitungkan terhadap kekuatan struktur terutama bila untuk rumah bertingkat ( tumbuh vertikal ), jangan hanya dengan rumus "biasanya kuat" tapi harus benar benar dihitung secara teknis.
  • Design tata ruang yang matang sehingga kecukupan dana pada tahap pertama benar benar bisa secara maksimal di terapkan dengan tata ruang yang berkelanjutan.
Selain dari itu hal non teknis yang harus diperhatikan :
  • Sumber dan kecukupan dana juga harus diperhitungkan, jangan sampai kita membangun tahap pertama sekaligus juga tahap terakhir alias berhenti.
  •  Kemungkinan adanya kenaikan harga material secara significan
  • Carilah tenaga yang benar benar faham masalah teknis, atau setidak tidaknya ada tenaga yang menjadi mandor yang faham dan mengerti teknis bangunan.
Baiklah, ini adalah sedikit uraian dari rumah tumbuh semoga bisa menjadi solusi bagi pemilik rumah yang ingin mengembangan rumah dengan dana terbatas.

Green Tip 28: My Two-Wheeled Vehicle


MAINTAIN YOUR VEHICLE

Not only are you extending the life of your vehicle, but you are creating less pollution and saving gas. A properly maintained vehicle, clean air filters, and inflated tires can greatly improve your vehicle's performance. And it might not hurt to clean out the trunk—all that extra weight could be costing you at the pump.

In my case, it's my bike that I maintain. A good tune up at least once maybe twice a year will help your bicycle last longer.  If everyone took better care of their more expensive items then they wouldn't needs as much replacing as often.

Green Tip 27: Towel Up!

When I first saw this ad it really hit me and now every time I use a paper towel in the washroom I can't help but be reminded of it.  At the very least it reminds me to try and use less or to instead use the air dryer.

For our office washroom I brought in a hand towel that everyone can use and will take it upon myself to make sure it gets washed at least once a week.  It works because we work in a small office so we can do this.  It is most important however, that these changes start in the home. See the facts ...

USE HAND TOWELS NOT PAPER

Reduce your paper towel use whenever and where ever you can!  Over 90% of American households combined produce over 3,000 tons of paper towel waste each day.  

If each home simply replaced one roll of their traditional paper towels with paper towels made from 100% recycled paper, we could avoid wasting 3.4 million cubic feet of landfill space and prevent 864,000 trees from being cut down.

Green Tip 26: Better Bath time Options

 
BAN BATH TIME!

Have a no-bath week, and take showers instead. Baths require almost twice as much water. Not only will you reduce water consumption but the energy costs associated with heating the water too.

Other options try bathing once or twice a month as a luxury and shower every other time. Maybe bath once a week but use less water.   Or, it's nearly summer, just jump in a pool once in a while, you'll be fine ;)

Green Tip 25: Lights Out for Earth Hour



TURN OFF LIGHTS

Always turn off incandescent bulbs when you leave a room. Fluorescent bulbs are more affected by the number of times it is switched on and off, so turn them off when you leave a room for 15 minutes or more. You'll save energy on the bulb itself, but also on cooling costs, as lights contribute heat to a room.

Tonight is Earth hour, which means we'll be turning off the lights and more - computers, electronics, televisions ... here's a thought spend time cuddling with a loved one? Prepare dinner before the hour and then enjoy it by candlelight or (and my personal favourite) take a nap before going out tonight!

As fantastic as earth hour is at building awareness I have to wonder, does turning off our lights for an hour really enough, does it do that much to help conserve energy?  I would think a day like "no-red meat day" or "no-fuel hour" would make a lot more sense.


Maybe one day :)

Saving Money on Fruits and Vegetables

Many people use coupons for food items to reduce the cost of the bill at the Supermarket, but there are not often coupons that are available for the fruits and vegetables that are being purchased in the frozen section. Without coupons however, consumers can still find creative ways to save while shopping for fruits and vegetables.

Here are some of the ways that you can save money on produce while shopping:


Track the Prices of Fruits and Vegetables

Tracking the prices of fruits and vegetables and comparing the prices of the vegetables and fruits can help the consumer to buy fruits at their lowest price, once the lowest price has learned to be recognized. Tracking the lowest prices using spreadsheets or a notebook can be an effective way to save money while shopping and can allow you to compare the sale prices and determine when certain vegetables or fruits should be purchased in advance and frozen.

Using In Store Coupons
Often, there are in store coupons that are available for people that are shopping. These coupons can allow you to obtain a gift card for the store once a certain amount of money has been spent in the store and can be an effective way to help save on the cost of the entire grocery order, including fruits and vegetables.

Stop Buying Prepackaged Vegetables

Buying vegetables that are packaged and cut can be quite expensive. Buying reusable containers, you can easily prepare the trays yourself, reducing the amount of money that is spent on the vegetables and fruits in the budget. In as little as an hour a week, you can prepare and cut the vegetables to have them easily accessible through the course of the week, storing the vegetables in the refrigerator or freezer and reducing their cost.

Green Tip 24: Light Switch


CHANGE YOUR LIGHT BULBS

If every household in the United State replaced one regular light bulb with one of those new compact fluorescent bulbs, the pollution reduction would be equivalent to removing one million cars from the road.

Now that's a bright idea ;)

Green Tip 23: The Heat is On, Turn it off


I don't know about you but I always wear a nice outfit and heels when I'm cooking a huge roast! Oh wait, no, I would never cook that lol ... or would I ever dress this way when cooking.  Oh 1950's, you make me giggle. :)


DO NOT PRE-HEAT THE OVEN ... unless you really, really, really have to

Unless you are making bread or pastries (or cupcakes!), don't pre-heat the oven. Just turn it on when you put the dish in. Also, when checking on your food, look through the oven window instead of opening the door.

This will save energy and possibly time :)

It's still cold outside but the summer is coming and I know it, I feel it, I really, really want it! Try to turn your heat down or off early this year and save energy and money.  Want to keep warm? Snuggle in a comfy sweater or with that special someone (and yes, dogs and cats count).

Green Tip 22: The Computer is My Bank Teller


PAY BILLS ONLINE

These days it is a lot easier and convenient to pay your bills or even do your banking online and it really is more secure then people think.  As long as you take every precaution when banking online it is a great alternative to getting those paper bills in the mail that eventually go to waste.

By some estimates, if all households in the U.S. paid their bills online and received electronic statements instead of paper, we'd save 18.5 million trees every year, 2.2 billion tons of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases, and 1.7 billion pounds of solid waste.


Green Tip 21: Challenge - Vegetarian for a Week!

 
GO VEGETARIAN ONCE A WEEK

One less meat-based meal a week can help the planet and your diet.  It requires 2,500 gallons of water to produce one pound of beef. You will also also save some trees.  For each hamburger that originated from animals raised on rain forest land, approximately 55 square feet of forest have been destroyed.  


Not sure where to start?  Try a cooking class or two, there are many great options available today and you don't have to go as strict as raw or even vegan classes but perhaps try a intro to vegetarian eating class or find some great information about it at your local vegetarian association.

Last week I took my first Marni Wasserman cooking class - Calci-Yum ... and Yummy it was!  A group of about nine of us made these amazing, calcium and nutrient rich dishes:

   Orange Salad with Pomegranate dressing (left) and Quinoa Broccoli Pinenut Pilaf (right)

    Spinach Almond Balls (can also be made into patties)


   Sesame-Miso Crusted Tempeh (I made this one in the class and I have a new found love for tempeh!)


   Seasonal Roasted Vegetables

    and for dessert ...

   Carob Fig Frozen Fudge!

Green Tip 20: Skip the Stick and the Coffee Cup

SKIP THE COFFEE STIR STICK or STRAW

In North America, 138 billion straws and stir sticks are thrown away each year!  You don't have to start drinking your coffee black for the environment sake but if you can, add your sugar and/or milk/cream first before pouring the coffee.  If you buy to-go ask the Barista to do this for you or ask for a metal spoon ... why not, never hurts to at least ask.

Try stir stick alternatives or keep a metal spoon in your bag or office desk.

Reminder: When buying coffee to go, don't forget your travel mug.

Detail Pembesian pada struktur bangunan sederhana tidak bertingkat

Bencana gempa yang datang pada era dewasa dan banyaknya korban terutama akibat runtuhnya bangunan harusnya membuat kita semua berfikir., Apakah semua ini terjadi akibat besarnya gempa ?, ataukah ini terjadi akibat kualitas bangunan yang tidak standart ? ataukah akibat kedua duanya.
Pemenuhan kualitas bangunan terutama pada struktur bangunan sudah tidak bisa ditawar lagi tambahan biaya untuk standarisasi konstruksi bangunan tahan gempa kalau dibanding dengan akibat yang akan terjadi kalau kita sembrono tidak akan berarti.
Melalui tulisan ini penulis mengajak kepada seluruh pelaku konstruksi baik  pelaksana maupun perencana dan masyarakat umum untuk mulai mempertimbangan dan menggunakan standart bangunan tahan gempa dalam setiap kegiatan konstruksi bangunan untuk mengantisipasi apabila terjadi bencana gempa, sehingga tidak ada korban jatuh sia sia untuk sebuah alasan ekonomis.

Dari hasil pengamatan kerusakan yang dilakukan selama berapa tahun pada bangunan rumah tinggal, maka dapat dikelompokkan kerusakan menjadi 8 tipe, yaitu :
  1. Tipe kerusakan dinding akibat beban tegak lurus bidang dinding,
  2. Tipe dinding retak pada setiap sudut bukaan,
  3. Tipe dinding terpisah pada sudut dan pertemuan,
  4. Tipe dinding hancur pada pertemuan sudut,
  5. Tipe dinding terpisah pada sudut dan pertemuan,
  6. Tipe retak diagonal pada dinding yang terjadi melalui siar,
  7. Tipe retak diagonal pada dinding yang terjadi melalui unsur penyusunnya (bata atau batako),
  8. Tipe rangka atap lepas dari dudukannya, tipe kegagalan pada pertemuan balok dan kolom beton bertulang, tipe mutu bahan dan mutu pengerjaan yang buruk.
Kerusakan pada bangunan dengan konstruksi pasangan tanpa perkuatan pada umumnya disebabkan oleh :
  • Bangunan relatif berat
  • Bangunan tidak daktail
  • Bangunan tidak kuat menahan tarikan yang terjadi akibat gaya gempa yang bekerja di arah tegak lurus bidang dinding.
Kerusakan pada bangunan dengan konstruksi pasangan dengan perkuatan pada umumnya disebabkan oleh:
  • Tidak ada angkur untuk mengikat antara dinding dengan elemen perkuatannya (kolom dan balok).
  • Tidak ada elemen perkuatan untuk bidang dinding yang luasnya ≥ 6m2.
  • Detail penulangan yang tidak benar pada pertemuan elemen-elemen perkuatan.
  • Mutu beton dari konstruksi rangka balok dan kolom sangat rendah.
  • Diameter dan total luas penampang tulangan yang dipasang terlalu kecil, jarak antar sengkang yang dipasang terlalu besar
Semoga sedikit tulisan ini bisa membawa manfaat.
Terima kasih..!

Green Tip 19: Ride, Glide or Walk Your Way

The warm weather is just around the corner.  It felt fantastic being able to ride outdoors this weekend and I can't wait to do more of it soon.

If you're a regular commuter to work why not consider car pooling or riding a bike or roller blading to work a couple days a week.  Public transit is always a great option even though it's not the most fun option, especially in the summer time when the weather is nice, take advantage of some greener ways to commute.

Rather then driving your car to work every day and wasting gas, wasting time in traffic burning toxic fuel and having to pay for parking, why not consider some environmental friendly and heart-healthier options.

Green Tip 18: Ban the Plastic Bags Already!


PLASTIC BAGS =  VERY BAD

Each year the U.S. uses 84 billion plastic bags, a significant portion of the 500 billion used worldwide. They are not biodegradable, and are making their way into our oceans, and subsequently, the food chain. Stronger, reusable bags are an inexpensive and readily available option.

Plastic bags, not just hanging out in trees, there are one way too many of them consuming our oceans!  These days it's easy to just reuse the bags you have or buy reusable, durable bags.

Green Tip 17: Give it Away Before You Throw it Away

GIVE IT AWAY

Before you throw something away, think about if someone else might need it. Either donate to a charitable organization or post it on a web site designed to connect people and things, such as Freecycle.org.

I think this is a sign, a sign that it's time to plan my next swap party!

A swap party is another great, creative way to donate and give away unwanted items.  The fun part is you can get some great stuff in return.

Green Tip 16: Let Your Fingers Do the Walking - Online!


Paper phone books are just a fancier version of  junk mail!  These days, with the Internet and Google and with nearly every business now having their own website, do we really need the wasted paper phone directory books anymore?

LET YOUR FINGERS DO THE WALKING—ONLINE 

You can call to stop your phone book delivery and use an online directory instead. Some estimate that telephone books make up almost ten percent of waste at dump sites. And if you still receive the book, don't forget to recycle your old volumes.

Here are just a few very awesome ways some people have recycled the ol' phone book (I could have spent all day finding these images, are some of them are amazing):
