No to Nukes: Australia’s Stand

At present, Australia only uses its cooling towers for non-nuclear power plants to generate electricity. The country’s source of electricity falls on two categories, fossil fuels (86.9%) and renewable energy (13.1%), according to BREE 2014 Australian Energy Statistics on Table O. They only use their enormous stock of uranium for medical and industrial purposes. That is why they built OPAL (Open Pool Australian Light-water Reactor) last 2006, a nuclear research reactor to serve this objective.  

In addition, Australia is the major supplier of this sought-after hazardous product, the uranium, dominating 30-40% exports worldwide. Although, they have the capability to build nuclear power plants, up to this day they’re still against it.

“It has always been the case that in order for nuclear power to be considered a viable domestic energy source, it will ­require bipartisan political support and widespread community acceptance. The fact remains that community ­acceptance for nuclear power has been undermined by the Fukushima incident,” said Industry Minister Ian Macfarlane in an interview by Daily Telegraph.

Apparently, the stigma and fear for this powerful yet destructible energy source will never waver. As long as incidents such as what happened at Chernobyl and Fukushima may occur, a G20 member – Australia for this instance – will never open their doors to such inevitable threat.

They’re more interested in pursuing renewable energy resources particularly from solar and wind. Ironically speaking, Fukushima met its unfortunate fate due to nature’s indescribable and immeasurable force. Now, we must return to its cradle in order to survive the next thirty or so years. Other renewable resources Australia is currently harnessing are bioenergy, hydro, and geothermal. It seems the country is one of the supporters of Sustainable Energy for All (SE4ALL) program launched on September 2011by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon.

SE4ALL has three objectives, one of which is “doubling the share of renewable energy in the global energy mix” by 2030. Renewable energy is eco-friendly and cheap compared to fossil fuels that contribute to air pollution worldwide. This global initiative is same as “hitting two birds with one stone” approach. It doesn’t only solve the problem of energy or electricity shortage in the future. This may also lessen the impact of climate change that we are experiencing right now.

In this way, we don’t have to resort on desperate actions such as extracting electricity from nuclear power plants. As always, nature has everything we need in terms of natural resources and all we have to do is search for it and seize it. In return, we must be responsible ambassadors of our planet so it could still be available for the future generations.

9 Rainy Season Activities that you'll Surely Love

It’s the month of June and we’ve just entered the rainy season. Are you done with your summer activities like going to Boracay or spending your short vacation with your relative? If you still have some of the Summer hangover blues, let me give you some family activities and relaxing ideas.

Learn Cooking – Parents should teach their children how to cook in as early as 7 years old. They could use the things that they’ve learned  in application of several situations like if they are hungry or would like to eat a snack but everyone is away for a short while.

Hide and Seek – This game is my most favorite when I was still a child. During rainy days, I will ask my cousins to play hide and seek with me. The rules go something like the “it” person will have to find his playmates with his eyes blindfolded. The playmates will have to make a noise every 30 seconds so that the “it” person could have an idea on where he could find the other players. The “it” person will be changed as soon as he touches one of the hiders.

Indoor Sports – like billiards, dart and table tennis.

Learn Magic Tricks – rainy season is the perfect time to learn magic tricks. There are lots of available e-books on the internet but I found this one very useful and complete.

Lego – A good  game where you and your family can develop your logic and designing skills.

Board Games – chess, snake and ladders, scrabble, millionaires.

Scavenger Hunt – Create a puzzle in your scavenger hunt and make creative rules and directions to the hunters. I’m sure this game will give everybody a bunch laughs and a right push of adrenalin. This game would develop analytic abilities and leadership skills.

Movie Date – A movie date with your family is a good idea but let’s give it a different twist. How about you’ll have question and answer portion after watching the movie? Sounds great, doesn’t it? I think it is much better if you consider adding a prize.

Teach your children some basic stuffs – sewing, washing clothes, changing bulbs.

The End is Neigh! – Carbon Dioxide hits 400ppm

GENEVA, Switzerland, May 26 – The World Meteorological Association announced that the average monthly concentration of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the northern hemisphere exceeded 400ppm in April, the highest monthly average record of all time. The WMO’s officials are according to the WMO’s release saying CO2 levels has risen more than 40 percent. Because plants absorb more carbon dioxide during summer when their foliage is more dense and plentiful, CO2 levels is higher during spring. Saying this, We could conclude that the CO2 level might be more than 400ppm as the towards the end of spring.

The cause of this situation is the constantly rising numbers of industrial factory and cars that produce gas emissions. This emission is defined as the burning of fossil fuels and said carbon emission greatly contributes to climate change.

The bad news is CO2 can remain in the atmosphere for hundreds of years and even longer in the ocean, so. Ocean is one of the primary source of our food. Marine species also needs oxygen just like how human needs it.  I can conclude that this is one of the factor why there are so many cases of fish kill.

These two videos made me realized what problems we are facing and how bad the situation is becoming.

1.)Oras Na (A special documentary madeby GMAnetwork – this a video documentary showing the slow death of the bodies of water.

 2.)Fish Eating Birds are Dying because of Human Waste – this video will show you a sad truth about how a bird specie is dying because of human trash.
