Sustainable Energy for the Future

In today’s world almost everyone are very accustom to a ready access of electricity. Sometimes others don’t even think where it’s coming from or don’t even realize how much energy they consume every day. Since it’s only a secondary form of energy, in order to produce it we need our natural resources. The most commonly used is fossil fuel for it's the most abundant and low-cost energy source. However, among all other form of energy sources it’s also the highest emitter of carbon dioxide (CO2), thereby creates huge impact to the environment.

According to IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) report the atmospheric mixing ratio of CO2 has increased worldwide by about 100 ppm (36%) over the last 250 years. Just imagine if CO2 in the atmosphere continue to increase on the coming years, then maybe it would be too late for us to stop global warming. And with this problem at hand, we cannot continuously depend on fossil fuels for most of our energy consumption. We need sustainable clean energy and it should be given utmost attention nowadays or else our future is at risk.

There are various solutions available, there’s the use of renewable energy, biofuels, and other researches on science such as capturing of energy from yeast and genetically engineered bacteria. There’s probably one winning solution but the most interesting solution is the use of wastes to generate electricity. Through this technology, both problems on energy and wastes can be solved. We even don’t need to use our natural resources since it uses wastes to derive clean energy. This is known as the biosphere process or biosphere technology.

For a greener and cleaner world, let's all promote sustainable clean energy! Log on to www.tgeg.asia for more information.

Importance of MRF – Material Recycling Facility

What is MRF? MRF or Material Recycling Facility also known as Material Recovery Facility integrates conveyors system which is used for material recovery or recycling. It has sorting machinery wherein it divides recyclables according to end marketable usage. Normally, there are two different types of MRF, the clean and dirty MRF’s. Significance of MRF As we know it, recycling is one method of conserving our natural environment. And MRF systems play an important role in doing the method of recycling in a large scale basis. As an essential component of innovative waste management system by means of recycling, MRF greatly helps in conserving the environment. It lessens the extraction of our natural resources thus creating a more sustainable way of manufacturing new products. Aside from that is decreases the amount of waste materials in our community thus prevents the spread of environmental contaminants that may also bring dangers in human health. MRF also offers high processin...

Benefits of Mangrove Planting

Mangroves are salt-tolerant trees that grow in tropical and subtropical seashores. These areas are hard-hitting places for plants to grow. Mangroves can thrive in salty water and survive in harsh conditions because of their strong roots that can filter the salinity of the sea and only consume the fresh water it needs. Aside from its ability to stand against the salty water of the sea, Mangrove is also well known to contribute to the overall health of the coastal area by providing food, shelter and environmental protection for marine organisms, nest dwellers and even humans living near seashores. This family of shrubs traps and rotates different elements, chemicals, and minerals. Their roots acts as block and provide environmental protection for some various marine organism such as fish and seashells. They also provide food for various marine species such as oyster, shrimp, tarpon, jack, and snook. Not only the marine organisms benefit in mangroves, but their branches also serve...

Environmentalists to P-Noy: End the Coal Burning in the Philippines

Environmentalists urge Pres.Aquino's administration to make immediate resolution on stopping the power coal plants in the country. The fact remains that coal burning causes adverse effects to our environment and human health. Some of the problems brought by coal burning include smog, acid rain, global warming and air pollution. Moreover, the dangers of coal burning have gone too far by affecting the public health of many Filipinos particularly in the areas where coal-fired power plants are located. Only recently, some residents in Barangay Ingore La Paz, Iloilo have been hospitalized after inhaling fumes from the plant. Good thing many organizations are now supporting the house resolution filed regarding the moratorium on the construction of new coal-fired power plants in the country. The said resolution is a response to Aquino administration’s push for coal power plants. Administration of Pres. Aquino has allowed another two new coal power plants in Iloilo city and Cebu provi...
