EARTH DAY for GLOBALWARMING

JAKARTA, gempa ci anjur/jawa barat, - Lokasi longsor di Desa Cikangkareng, Kecamatan Cibinong, Kabupaten Cianjur, Jawa Barat, akibat terjangan gempa bumi, Rabu (2/9), dapat dipantau oleh satelit ALOS-AVNIR2 (Advanced Land Observing Satellite-Advanced Visible and Near Infrared Radiometer type 2) milik Jepang.

Data citra satelit tersebut diambil Jumat (4/9) kemudian dikirim oleh JAXA Sentinel Asia—Asian Disaster Reduction Center ke Pusat Pengembangan Pemanfaatan dan Teknologi Penginderaan Jauh Lembaga Penerbangan dan Antariksa Nasional (Lapan) berdasarkan permintaan lembaga riset ini. ”Data itu kami olah dan analisis dengan membandingkan kondisi lokasi gempa pada citra sebelum dan sesudah gempa,” .

Lembang Fault in the north of Bandung recently become the center of attention and study of science, both by the Indonesian Institute of Sciences (LIPI), and the Meteorological Agency, Climatology, and Geophysics (BMKG) Bandung. Fault is believed to be active this will save a huge earthquake threat.

Eko Yulianto, researchers from Paleoseismologi Geoteknologi LIPI Research Center, found in his office, Tuesday (6 / 10), said that whether or not active Lembang Fault current no longer debated.

"Based on research results LIPI, this fault was a record period of movement (earthquake) with a range of 400-700 years. In the sediment samples of the former swamp land around the location, it is known that at least seven layers of soil. That is, at least once happened seven movement time, "he said.

With a length of Lembang Fault spans 22 kilometers, Eko said that the potential could reach 6.7 earthquake Ritcher scale. "That is the worst scenario, if there is movement in unison," he said.

Earthquake surface with this much power, he said, would be unusual for the surrounding area. He even predicted, the impact of the quake was later able to match the earthquake happened in Yogyakarta, May 2006, which killed thousands of people.

The problem is, the soil conditions in Bandung is not much different in the Yogyakarta, which is the land of young sediments of ancient lakes used. "This soil layer has not really consolidated so that the effect is like porridge in the bowl when shaken. Uncangannya stopped, but the shock is still going on," said alumnus of Geology Institute of Technology Bandung.

World class

For that, just by a small force such as occurs in DIY, shallow earthquakes that occur can cause tremendous damage effects. In fact, quoting a statement from Brian Atwater, paleotsunami renowned researchers from the United States Geological Survey (USGS) is a co-worker in a series of research, Lembang Fault hazards including world-class category.

"Because of this fracture was located near the city area is very dense. It is rare in the world," he said. According to him, the threat potential of Lembang Fault earthquake is conveyed is not to make people nervous in Bandung.

"Instead, we want to remind residents to be prepared and alert. However, information is a form of early warning the earliest," he said.

The phenomenon of El Nino or hot Sea Surface Temperature in the Pacific Ocean from late May menggejala and tends to strengthen this month. However, seeing patterns and the location of "hot tub"-area of sea surface warming trend is a new version of the so-called El Nino El Nino Modoki.

This was revealed from the weather experts Inventory Technology Agency of Natural Resources Assessment and Application of Technology (TISDA-BPPT), Fadli Shamsuddin, Friday (21 / 8), via SMS. "There is a tendency towards anomalous El Nino Modoki. To ensure that, should see the last condition, "he said.

El Nino is usually marked the Sea Surface Temperature anomalies in the equatorial region in the Pacific Ocean is called the hot pool. This resulted in high moisture supply in the area of Peru, which causes a lot of rain in the area, contrary drought in parts of Asia, especially Indonesia.

In contrast to El Nino, the emergence of Modoki, Japanese language, which means "similar but different", shown by the existence of "hot tub" which concentrated only in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. The eastern and western Pacific cool.

This condition causes the low supply of water vapor or the formation of rain clouds in Peru and in eastern Indonesia. So far the research undertaken by researchers of Marine Research Agency of Japan (JAMSTEC), parts of Indonesia has not much studied. This phenomenon was also recently published in 2004 by JAMSTEC researcher, said Fadli, who won his doctorate in Japan.

El Nino Modoki Research also conducted research of the Georgia Institute of Technology. "Typically, El Nino events cause the decrease of the storm in the Atlantic. However, this new type increased the storm, "said Peter Webster, professor at Georgia Tech's School of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences.

According to Webster's research that appeared in the journal Science last July edition, El Nino Modoki more predictable compared to El Nino. El Nino turned into a natural oscillation Modoki by El Nino or El Nino is a response to atmospheric menghangatnya or because of La Nina change the structure of El Nino.

Increasingly sophisticated technology technology, many businesses or companies to develop products and expand its marketing through media, both print and electronic media, one of the Internet, with advertisers or have their own web site as promotional media. now a familiar world of the Internet can facilitate us in our search for what we need .for example just ugg boots, your boots if you need just by looking on the internet you can even order them directly with your order directly, you can get ugg boots sale.

Large-scale earthquake will knock down anything on earth that unsound and fragile. This phenomenon is not just demolish the building, but also makes landslides, broke, and ambles. Beyond that, an earthquake of the coast is also a potential cause tsunamis. That is a series of threats to the population in the earthquake-prone areas.

As long as the earth rotates, the movement of plates covering the earth and float on the magma will never stop. Antarlempeng collision or the crust is what causes earthquakes continue to occur after another all over the world.

When one location in the boundary layer of rocks collapsed due to the earth's crust holding the pressure plate merapuh, rocks that would seek a new stable position. During this process will be a series of aftershocks, the main pascagempa. This can result in cracked buildings and fragile finally collapsed.

For earthquakes in Padang, 30 September, hack earthquake even hundreds of times before the incident. Since the earthquake in Aceh, December 26, 2004, Padang and surrounding areas are often hit by earthquakes scale 4 to 6 on the Richter scale. "The numbers in the hundreds," said Sujabar, officials at the National Earthquake Center Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics.

Shocks in a long time has weakened gradually building structures that are not designed to withstand earthquakes, among others, indicated by the wall fractures. Appeal to the public to do to strengthen buildings vulnerable to earthquakes has been done. "But, unfortunately this is ignored because they are considered a big earthquake would not come," said Febrin A Ismail, Coordinator of the Expert Group of the Tsunami Alert (Kogami) West Sumatra.

Avalanche and ambles

Other threats lurk after the earthquake is a landslide and ambles. This happened in the hills because the reduction in forest cover.

The decline of forest areas in the region will open up the potential slope and landslide eroded as rain. This condition starts during the dry season. As a result of exposure to intense sunlight, land surface bond "naked" would be weakened and stretched.

Avalanches generally occur in the transition from dry to rainy season, especially in the area of land type easy go. As the rain washed constantly, a weakened bond would be broken because the burden of water in the pores. Bond rupture is characterized by avalanches of land. The threat of landslides to be greater when the slope of the fragile perch building, especially when rocked by an earthquake.

Longsornya slopes in some areas in West Sumatra pascagempa, September 30, among others, triggered by these conditions. It is also common in Cianjur, West Java, September 2, 2009.

Seeing the trend merambahnya residential area to the hills caused by rising populations in earthquake-prone areas, in future events such as landslides during the earthquake in Cianjur, Solok and Padang will happen also in other areas prone slopes and densely populated quake.

In addition to landslides, amblesnya surface can also occur in areas hit by the earthquake. As a result of the earthquake, the source of underground water mixed to happen likuifaksi or pelembekan land. Land that had high loading and hollow will ambles.

Domino effect

Domino effect could occur in kegempaan and fault segments adjacent to the collapsed rocks are the source of the earthquake. Conditions that, among other things pascagempa Padang earthquake followed the next day of Jambi, which is sourced from Semangko fault.

"We kegempaan Mentawai segment also require attention after the earthquake in Padang late last month," says Danny Hilman, geologists from the Central Research Geoteknologi Indonesian Institute of Sciences.

Because the earthquake source is located on the west bank, the Mentawai segment called megathrust, which stretched from the island of Siberut island until Pagai. LIPI research shows the Mentawai Islands, the year 1650 an earthquake had occurred on SR 8 in Siberut Island. Years 1797 and 1883 as re-scale earthquake in the area appeared.

Second quake-based research and sedimentary coral-caused tsunami in Padang as high as 10 meters. The propagation modeling 8,7-8,9 tsunamis by earthquakes in 1797 and SR 1833, which created a tsunami expert ITB, Hamzah Latief, the wave will reach the coast of Padang in 30 minutes with a height of nearly 5 meters.

Mentawai segment is part of the system in western Sumatra kegempaan which is divided into four main segments (Simelue, Nias, Mentawai, Enggano). 10 years since the last earthquake in this segment "pounding".

"The emergence of the earthquake last September that the Mentawai segment may disturb the sleep, to cause a tsunami," says Danny.

Earthquakes in the western islands of Sumatra that repetition period of about 200-300 years. This penunjaman effects of the pressing plate edge Indoaustralia Eurasian plate beneath the western part of fault Semangko up to the islands off the coast of Sumatra. The speed of the pressure plate 6 to 7 centimeters per year.

Rocks at the end plate at a time will be bounced for not being able longer stand the pressure. This is marked by a large earthquake, a shift position in the segment's mainland and the island from the mainland menjauhnya a few meters from its original position. Pascagempa year 2004, the islands off the coast of Banda Aceh 1-3 meters away.

In addition to natural phenomena that accompany large earthquakes, the impact is the threat of disease, food shortages, as well as psychological trauma victims who lost property and family.

Because of that, Danny reminds all parties in the Valley must be vigilant and to anticipate potentially facing a tsunami earthquake recurrence.

The phenomenon of the earthquake has occurred since the Earth's surface is formed. To understand it, developed seismology, part of earth science. However, until now the earthquake has not also be expected that always threatens the life on it. Research continues to run.

Beginning last week came the rumors will be an earthquake measuring 8.5 on the Richter scale on Saturday, October 24, 2009. Shock mentioned leads to Jakarta.

News that mentioned the Meteorological Agency, Climatology, and Geophysics (BMKG) had been denied the Head BMKG, October 19. This issue has no clear scientific basis for tectonic earthquakes can not be scientifically predicted.

The fact that Jakarta on "safe" course. Although the earthquake occurred in the morning (at 10:09 GMT), the scale is only 5.1 SR and only slightly shook Sukabumi.

Then there was another earthquake in the evening (21:40 GMT) in the Banda Sea. Relatively strong earthquake (7.3 SR) with a center at a distance of 209 kilometers northwest of Saumlaki, Maluku. Because of the earthquake center, convulsions was up to Ambon and Merauke.

So far, the science of human-controlled Terrestrial new limited earthquake records, both the time, location, and intensity. There are currently no earthquake prediction techniques that are categorized as developed and tested scientifically.

However, efforts in that direction longer continue to do. One of the monitoring technique using electromagnetic waves (EM) that emanated from the bowels of the Earth. This research has been pioneered Varotsos, geophysical experts from the University of Athens, Greece, in 1884.

According to him, this technique has good prospects to predict earthquakes because the level of success in predicting the earthquake when it has reached 63 percent.

Seeing this prospect, some developed countries, including Japan and Taiwan, which is often shaken by earthquakes, such as Indonesia, recently intensified to the development of this technique, not only to observe the distribution of EM in the Earth's lithosphere layer, but also in the atmosphere to the ionosphere.

EM waves are used to indicate the occurrence of an earthquake because of plate movement and the acceleration of the magma rock formations due to changes in the Earth's stomach causing electromagnetic wave surge. These anomalies appear before the earthquake happened.

Digging science earthquake monitoring of the two countries, Djedi S Widarto, researchers from the Center for Research Geoteknologi Indonesian Institute of Sciences, recently revealed the results of his research in Liwa, an area on the west coast of Lampung, Bengkulu border which was struck by massive earthquake a few years ago.

Sign of the emergence of tectonic earthquake can be seen two to five days before the incident, indicated the existence of electromagnetic wave anomalies in the Earth's surface. "There is an electromagnetic surge around 5 milivolt before the big earthquake in the area," he explained. This deviation observed even in the ionosphere layers that are 300 to 400 kilometers above the Earth's surface.

"With the development of sensors and instrumentation techniques, monitoring of electromagnetic anomalies in the next 5-10 years can be used as a parameter to predict tectonic earthquake," said Djedi, geophysics doctorate from Kyoto University.

As a result of plate movement, cracks occur which affect the gravity and magnetic minerals in the Earth so that the force destabilizing the electromagnetic field. "This disturbance could get a radius of 400 kilometers above Earth's surface, the layer of the ionosphere," said Djedi, who completed the research at the Institute of Space Science National Central University, Taiwan.

Meanwhile, researchers from Lapan, Sarmoko Saroso, who conducted the study of electromagnetic anomalies at the same institute, obtained the data of EM anomalies when an earthquake happens in Aceh, 26 December 2004. The data is recorded at the same time in the four-station global positioning system (GPS), which is in Medan, Singapore, Myanmar, and India.

Pascagempa Aceh, the experts from both countries agreed to establish cooperation further research, involving research institutions in Indonesia, LIPI and the Institute of Space and Aviation Agency.

Electromagnetic measurements made using GPS network, in addition to the magnetometer instrument, the sensor electrodes geolistrik, and binoculars corona. This system is equipped with tools for data telemetry in real time. Research in Liwa in 2005 that electromagnetic waves to detect spikes as an indication of magnitude 5.2 tectonic earthquake on SR 12 days before the incident.

Asperitas

In addition to electromagnetic wave measurement techniques, the Japanese began researching asperitas (asperity), the level of surface roughness on the subduction zone plate with seismograph system. "By knowing the surface roughness, can be known to the deceleration motion until penunjaman 'locked' and then off or menggelosor," said Eko Yulianto, who won a doctoral geology from the University of Hokkaido, Japan.

Yoshiko Yamanaka and Masayuki Kikuchi of the Earthquake Research Institute University of Tokyo examined the characteristics of surface roughness (asperity) plates, with learning resources in the area kegempaan or antarlempeng subduction zone off the coast of Tohoku District, northeastern Japan.

The study, published in 2003 is based on regional seismic data for more than 70 years ago. They found three categories of distribution patterns in the Tohoku asperitas plates, are distinguished at the level of roughness and the resulting kegempaan.

Indonesia berpotensi mengurangi emisi gas rumah kaca sebesar 60 persen hingga tahun 2030 dengan menggabungkan kebijakan lingkungan hidup yang tepat dan dukungan internasional.

Perubahan kebijakan dan kelembagaan di sektor kehutanan, pembangkit listrik, transportasi, dan pengelolaan lahan gambut merupakan peluang bagi Indonesia untuk beralih ke jalur ekonomi yang lebih berkelanjutan.

Demikian paparan Menteri Lingkungan Hidup dan Ketua Harian Dewan Nasional Perubahan Iklim (DNPI) Rachmat Witoelar kepada para wartawan, Kamis (27/8) di Jakarta. Data ini merupakan hasil kajian sementara DNPI tahun ini.

"Indonesia mengakui adanya ancaman yang dihadapi semua bangsa dari pemanasan global, dan akan mengupayakan pengurangan emisi dalam negeri sepanjang hal tersebut sesuai dengan tujuan pembangunan nasional," ujar Rachmat.

Data DNPI menunjukkan, jumlah emisi gas rumah kaca Indonesia pada 2005 mencapai 2,3 giga ton. Emisi ini akan meningkat sebesar 3,6 giga ton pada 2030 apabila tidak terdapat perubahan dalam cari pengelolaan di beberapa sektor.

Indonesia sendiri, salah satunya, akan fokus pada sektor kehutanan, pertanian, transportasi, bangunan, dan semen. Dari sektor ini, Indonesia berpeluang mengurangi gas rumah kaca sebesar 2,3 giga ton pada 2030.

Seperti diketahui, lahan gambut dan kehutanan merupakan sumber terbesar emisi gas rumah kaca di Indonesia, yaitu mencapai 45 persen. Untuk menekan emisi tersebut, Indonesia akan merehabilitasi lahan gambut yang rusak.

"Selain itu, Indonesia akan secara aktif memengaruhi negosiasi internasional tentang emisi gas, mengembangkan strategi perubahan iklim di dalam negeri yang handal, serta meningkatkan kesadaran masyarakat akan risiko dan peluang perubahan iklim,"

Mirinae typhoon hit, 20 People Killed

Mirinae tropical storm moves toward Vietnam, Sunday (1 / 11), after charging the Philippines killed 20 people.

Mirinae typhoon was weakening, Sunday, as they move toward the South China Sea. The storm was expected to hit Vietnam's coast, Monday afternoon.

Prime Minister of Vietnam Nguyễn Tấn Dũng ordered residents in areas threatened by the storm to evacuate immediately. The fishermen in the South China Sea are also asked to seek refuge.

Philippines and Vietnam had saju recover from Hurricane Ketsana hack. This storm caused the Philippine capital, Manila, in the worst floods in actions 40 years, killing 160 people in Vietnam at the end of September 2009.

Ketsana and two other storms and killed about 900 people in the Philippines. Around 87,000 were evacuated as the storm hit Mirinae turn. Philippine officials say 20 people were killed victims mostly by drowning, in six provinces.

La Nina and el nino
La Nina phenomenon of the Pacific Ocean waters that bring the rain began to weaken. We have observed that the opportunity about 50 percent and potentially continue to decline in the near future so that the dry season is estimated to occur.

"This year still has not observed the energy balance in the year after El Nino occurred in 2006 which resulted in the long dry season,".

the period 2006 to 2009 allows started happening when the energy balance of the El Nino to La Nina changes.

However, the condition of the current La Nina will continue to weaken. However, it still remains to be determined through monitoring the waters of the Pacific Ocean until mid 2009.

El Nino was a kid

Head of Public Meteorological Information subfields of Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics (BMKG) Ribudianto Kukuh said, although the potential for 50 percent of La Nina will continue to decline, El Nino's own estimates are still too small.

"We have estimated the El Nino is still approximately 30 percent,"

Condition of waters and islands in the western Pacific Ocean is still relatively warm. However, the same thing started happening also in the eastern Pacific Ocean.

In the middle of Pacific Ocean waters, which would tend to cool move to the west. When the waters of the Pacific Ocean to the west of the cold, La Nina is weakening and the dry season occurs.

"Problems in the 2009 dry season will be prolonged worry. This would still require constant monitoring in the Pacific,".

JAKARTA, - Once in Bali, UN agencies convention on climate change (UNFCCC or the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change) will be re-held in Copenhagen, Danish, Sunday (13/12/09).

The conference was first held in 1992 that aims to urge all states concerned to stabilize greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at levels that are considered harmless Earth's climate. This year, the meeting will make proposals to use carbon payments to protect forests in the world.

The conference titled "Forest Day 3" is dedicated to discussing the role of forests in climate change, mitigation and adaptation to change, and will focus on "Forest Biodiversity and Climate Change."

The negotiators will also discuss a global framework for REDD (reducing emissions of greenhouse gases and forest degradation defortasi). Thus countries that reduce their deforestation rates will get credit for reduced gas emissions. Credits would then be sold on the international carbon market or will be channeled into an international fund.

In a question and answer session at a media briefing at the Hotel Intercontinental, Tuesday (25 / 8) morning, Dr Agus Purnomo, representing the government as Executive Secretary National Council on Climate Change, explains, indigenous forest communities in Indonesia do not have different perceptions with developed countries and developing the gas emissions that produce the most in the world such as China.

"Society and the village is a large portion, so from their government that has a big responsibility as indigenous forest communities will be given an incentive of about 70 percent," said Dr. Masripatin Nur, leader of the REDD team from the Department of Forestry.

Conference on Environment-Friendly Products
JAKARTA, Indones - Indonesia will host the implementation of Eco-Products International Fair (EPIF) 2010 which will take place in March 2010 in Jakarta.

"EPIF 2010 includes 2 main activities of the international conference environmentally friendly products and international exhibitions environmentally friendly products," explained Vice-Chairman of Chamber of Commerce, Rahmat Gobel.

Grace revealed that after discussing the preparation of the activity with Plt Coordinating Minister for Economy Sri Mulyani Indrawati said here on Monday.

The activity was a collaboration of various parties including the Chamber of Commerce, the Asian Productivity Organization (APO), and National Productivity Organization (NPO) Indonesia.

"Visitors are expected from within and outside the country with the number more than 300,000 people. From outside the country will come from 20 countries around Asia Pacific," he said.

According to him, Indonesia has an interest in it is penyelengaraan activities to support efforts to increase economic growth supported by increased productivity.

"In the meantime the exhibition we will popularize and market environmentally sound products," he said.

EPIF an international exhibition of environmental friendly products in Asia which demonstrated advances in technology, goods and environmental services that will improve productivity and sustainable competition, also the event raise public awareness of goods and environmental services, and build business networks.

Organization in Jakarta is organizing the 6th after the first one in Kuala Lumpur (2004), both in Bangkok (2005), third in Singapore (2006), fourth in Hanoi (2008), and fifth in Manila in 2009

WONOSARI, INDONESIA-Biogas from human waste continue to be developed in the area of Gunung Kidul Regency. After previously installing biogas installation on the banks of the processing time Besole, Ministry of Environment to build a similar installation in Pondok Pesantren Darul Quran.

Development of biogas installations in potentially creating a boarding school or pesantren ekopesantren environmental perspective.

Chairman of the Pondok Pesantren Darul Quran Masduki Haris Ahmad said he would pass on this waste processing technology to other boarding schools in ekopesantren forum to be held in Yogyakarta, Wednesday (4 / 11). "Processing of waste into biogas to create boarding schools or environmentally friendly ekopesantren," said Haris, Sunday (1 / 11).

Waste treatment technology that the new human waste last month installed at the Pondok Pesantren Darul Quran was adopted from Germany via Bremen Overseas Research and Development Association. By processing human waste, pesantrens managers can save spending money for the purchase of fuel to Rp 2.5 million per month.

Liquid waste from the processing of biogas installations can also be used for agriculture. Of the land area of 1500 square meters, the students able to harvest various vegetables with a trading value up to USD 1.6 million per month. "The economic profit only side effect. The most important waste is no longer a problem, but rather helpful," added Harris.

Students at the Pondok Pesantren Darul Quran, Muhtasin, admitted that initially he and about 400 other students to take advantage keck biogas from human waste. He and his colleagues began to get used to using biogas as a taste of different cuisines that are not using other types of fuel.

Before getting to know the processing of biogas, waste from Islamic boarding schools just thrown into the paddy field area that pollute the environment. Through processing of the waste, the students are also invited to maintain environmental sustainability. In the future, hoping pesantrens manager can utilize the waste processed human waste as fertilizer raw materials.

Since December, residents in the outskirts of Besole Kali, Gunung Kidul, also has been using gas from human waste as fuel. Government fix the toilet residents crowded living on the edge of time and accommodate all the dirt from seven houses. Gas from the new waste could be used by 13 people from two families.

NEW YORK, - UN summit ended a day of climate change and UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon urged world leaders to act swiftly to ensure success in the upcoming UN conference on climate in Copenhagen, December.

"I was heartened to hear that more and more leaders are ready to act outside the national perspective to join the global leadership," said UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon told world leaders at the close of the hearing.

"You have been taking action to stay involved until an agreement was signed in Copenhagen. And you have agreed to give guidance to the negotiators to work towards an ambitious agreement, effective, and fair in Copenhagen," Ban said.

Nearly 100 heads of state and government participating in the high-level meetings, the largest gathering of world leaders to discuss climate change.

By discussing these issues, the Secretary General hopes to move the political will and momentum necessary to achieve an ambitious agreement in Copenhagen conference.

Climate change is a matter of economics and geopolitics of the 21st century. But Ban, who visited the Arctic region earlier this month and witnessed the impact of climate change quickly, deliver regrets about the negotiations and urged leaders to look far to meet the needs of their people.

UN Secretary General argue that tackling global warming was done with a very high ransom. "They're wrong. The truth is the opposite. We will not be able to pay if we do not act now," Ban said.

Success in Copenhagen, Danish, would require all countries to work in tandem to limit the global temperature rise, and encourage the world's ability to handle changes that occur through climate change.

Consensus on greenhouse gas reduction to be debates, the theme becomes most hotly discussed topics in a variety meeting.Many non-governmental organizations in environmental and social fields, which makes the interests of consensus include the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions as one of the criteria for certification. However, on the other side of palm oil producers rate, still takes a lot of time entering a consensus to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases in one particular certification.in consensus criteria of reducing emissions of greenhouse gases in the discussion. D debate but has not yet been able to make decisions, whether the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions become one of the criteria for certification or not the businessman.With can not produce a consensus decision-related reductions of greenhouse gas emissions as one of the criteria for certification. "I understand, when the world around us also seemed paralyzed and Unable to take the courageous (related reduction in greenhouse gas emissions), we also lose the opportunity to be bold and visionary.

Social and Environmental Risks for greenhouse gas emissions could be because of the oil palm plantations in between, it was aroused from the production process and the opening of new land. The production process in the form of nitrogen fertilizer use until the provision of chemicals on plants that resulted in the release of greenhouse gases. Meanwhile, greenhouse gas emissions from new land clearing Arise as a result, changes to the forest as a carbon catcher into palm oil plantations or palm garden lainnya.Because only able to capture carbon largest 40 tons for 25 years distant when compared with the forest. "Compare this with the forest is not damaged, which can capture approximately 275 tonnes of carbon up to 300 tons,".

Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions as part of a strategy to reduce global warming, the opening of new plantations in the forest as a catcher change carbon, for example, some countries Indonesia is still very possible. On the other hand, in other countries there is no longer possible to open land in the forest or forest change.
Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions that consensus should be defined as one of the certification criteria for palm entrepreneurs. desire to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from oil palm plantations, is not only the responsibility of the oil business, but it was only a small part in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. "This will be the responsibility of all parties".

if this (reduction of greenhouse gas emissions) are due to only oil entrepreneurs wrong, because, actually produces the largest contributor to greenhouse gases is the developed countries, with the factories, tall buildings that use glass, because most of the entrepreneurs oil found in developing countries and still have enough land or forest as absorbent carbon monoxide. therefore, greenhouse gases must be a shared responsibility and he should no agreement among a countries.

Reduction of greenhouse gas emissions should be consensus that defined as one of the certification criteria for palm entrepreneurs. desire to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from oil palm plantations, is not only the responsibility of the oil business, but it was only a small part in reducing greenhouse gas emissions. "This will be the responsibility of all parties".

if this (reduction of greenhouse gas emissions) are due to only oil entrepreneurs wrong, because, actually produces the largest contributor to greenhouse gases is the developed countries, with the factories, tall buildings that use glass, because most of the entrepreneurs oil found in developing countries and still have enough land or forest as the absorbent karbon. therefore, greenhouse gases must be a shared responsibility and he should have agreement among the countries .

* Beware! El Nino storms will Hit NTT


JAKARTA, - From May to late October in the northern waters of Indonesia has established 23 cyclones or tropical storms. The number of storms in the region until the end of November is forecasted to be at or above normal.

Coordinator of the Tropical Cyclone Warning Center Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics (TCWC-BMKG) under normal conditions, the average number of storms, which formed April-November, is 25.7 cyclones. Benchmark is based on data from 1968 to 1990.

"There's still time for another month for the formation of cyclones in northern Indonesia. The number of cyclones that formed the current dispute is only 2.7 compared with the average, ".

Since the tropical storm that emerged Kyjira and May 8, following 23 other storms. One is the storm that occurred Lupit Tuesday (27/10) at around 19:00 pm, 13:00 o'clock in the afternoon the storm had grown Mirinae.

Thursday (29/10) afternoon Mirinae moving toward the east Philippines, the position of latitude 15.8 north and 13.6 east longitude. The distance is 1700 kilometers northeast of Manado.

Mirinae moving into the Pacific Ocean does not give effect to the region is Indonesia. Currently Mirinae still in stable condition with a speed of 139 kilometers per hour.

From tropical storms formed since May, three of which led to the disaster, namely Ketsana and Parma in the Philippines and Taiwan Morakot hit.

For Indonesia, the weather disturbances that could impact on the territory of Indonesia which is close to the storm because of its vortex lines can draw air mass around the equator.

"The emergence of Parma, for example, the wind caused the branch to the north Sulawesi and Maluku,"

Therefore, the lifetime of a storm that lasted three days to two weeks continued to be monitored TCWC-BMKG, to see the potential impact for Indonesia, in the form of strong winds, heavy rain and high waves.

Tropical storms formed since sea temperatures above 27 degrees Celsius and wind speeds of more than 67 miles per hour, said Chief Meteorological Information BMKG subfields.

Currently, Indonesia entered a period of transition to the rainy season. This is indicated heavy rain and lightning and strong winds a short duration in most of Sumatra; western Borneo, southern, and eastern and some areas in northern part of Central Kalimantan.

DENPASAR,BALI - Bali Tourism Development Corporation (BTDC), sebagai pengelola kawasan resor Nusa Dua, melakukan inisiatif pemulihan ekosistem terumbu karang di perairan pantai setempat.

"Pemulihan ekosistem terumbu karang yang telah terdegradasi itu dilakukan lewat program restorasi di lokasi terumbu karang pesisir Nusa Dua," Karena Adanya kesadaran terhadap kondisi terumbu karang.

Kegiatan restorasi sebenarnya telah diawali dengan penelitian struktur ekologi komunitas karang dan ikan karang di kawasan pesisir Nusa Dua, sejak awal Juli 2009.

Kemudian dilanjutkan kegiatan restorasi karang dengan membuat media karang buatan (artificial reef), yang didesain secara khusus menyesuaikan kondisi perairan Nusa Dua(Bali).

"Sebanyak 14 struktur artificial reef yang diberi nama Submarine Reef, telah ditempatkan di lokasi terumbu yang rusak di Nusa Dua, pada 6 Oktober lalu. Dua struktur lagi akan ditempatkan 20 Oktober, bersamaan dengan kegiatan Nusa Dua Fiesta 2009,".

Penggunaan terumbu karang buatan itu diharapkan dapat menghasilkan peningkatan kompleksitas topografi secara cepat, substrat yang stabil bagi karang dan avertebrata lainnya, tempat penyelaman dan snorkeling alternatif untuk mengalihkan tekanan dari terumbu alami.

Penempatan media Fish Agregation Device diharapkan dapat menarik keberadaan ikan, sehingga secara langsung akan memperbanyak jenis-jenis ikan yang ada di kawasan terumbu karang Nusa Dua.

"Tujuan melakukan restorasi untuk memperbaiki ekosistem terumbu karang yang telah terdegradasi. Ini adalah bentuk komitmen pada pelestarian lingkungan yang diharapkan didukung berbagai pihak, baik pengusaha, turis, nelayan, dan juga aparat keamanan pantai," komentar Direktur Utama BTDC.

Kondisi terumbu karang Nusa Dua kini di bawah ancaman serius. Hal itu disebabkan masih terjadinya praktek perikanan merusak, seperti penggunaan pottasium sianida dan pembuangan jangkar ke karang, baik oleh kapal nelayan maupun kapal wisata.

Kondisi tersebut dikhawatirkan akan semakin merusak habitat terumbu karang Nusa Dua yang tinggal sedikit itu. "Kami sangat mendukung program ini dan berharap dengan adanya restorasi karang, praktek merusak tersebut tidak terjadi lagi,".

Pihaknya telah lama memikirkan agar kawasan pesisir Nusa Dua dilindungi dengan payung hukum dan dibuatkan zonasi, sehingga keberadaan terumbu karang tetap terjaga.

Upaya perlindungan tersebut, selain untuk melindungi aset wisata bahari, juga akan dapat menjamin ketersediaan ikan bagi masyarakat pesisir Nusa Dua.

Pittsburgh, - European Union voiced deep concern about climate change negotiations, warned they were headed in the wrong direction in the weeks before the making or termination of the Copenhagen conference.

Swedish Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt, head of the European Union today, came to the U.S. city of Pittsburgh for the economic summit 20-nation group after top-level talks at the United Nations about climate change.

"We were both very worried about the situation," Reinfeldt said in a joint press conference with European Commission chief Jose Manuel Barroso.

"When it comes to negotiations, they actually slow down, they are not going in the right direction," said Reinfeldt. "We are very concerned that we need to speed up negotiations."

A little more than two months remaining until the conference in Copenhagen, which is intended to approve the Kyoto Protocol successor framework, which requires the agreement to reduce emissions blamed for global warming.

European Union and Japan has become a leading champion of the Kyoto Protocol, which does not make requirements on developing countries to reduce carbon emissions.

However, rich countries including the United States are united in insisting that the next agreement also requires action by developing countries.

China President Hu Jintao said on Tuesday that the largest developing country in the world was ready to slow the growth of carbon emissions sepertidi developed countries, but he did not specify numbers.

KUPANG, — Partai Hijau di Senat Australia mendukung sepenuhnya gagasan pembentukan tim pencari fakta terhadap dampak pencemaran minyak mentah di Laut Timor akibat meledaknya ladang gas Montara pada 21 Agustus 2009 lalu.

"Ini sangat luar biasa karena Australia sendiri sangat prihatin dengan kondisi yang terjadi di Laut Timor saat ini," kata pemerhati masalah Laut Timor yang juga Ketua Yayasan Peduli Timor Barat (YPTB), Ferdi Tanoni, kepada pers di Kupang, Rabu (28/10).

Ia mengemukakan ini setelah menerima surat elektronik dari Senator Hijau Australia Chris Twomey yang mengatakan bahwa Partai Hijau di Senat Australia sangat tertarik dengan gagasan pembentukan tim pencari fakta (TPF) tersebut.

Twomey dalam surat elektroniknya itu menegaskan, "Jika Pemerintah Federal Australia tidak segera mengambil langkah-langkah pencegahan, maka Partai Hijau bersama YPTB akan turun langsung ke Laut Timor untuk melihat kondisi yang sesungguhnya terjadi di sana".

"Kami merasa frustrasi dengan tanggapan Pemerintah Federal Australia tentang krisis pencemaran minyak mentah di Laut Timor ketika mereka mempertanyakan Otorita Keselamatan Maritim Australia atau Australia Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) dan Menteri Lingkungan Hidup Australia pada 14 September 2009 di Senat Australia setelah melihat gambar dari satelit NASA," kata Twoney.

Tanoni yang juga mantan agen Imigrasi Kedutaan Besar Australia itu menambahkan, pihaknya juga telah menyurati pimpinan Partai Oposisi Australia (Partai Liberal) di Parlemen Australia untuk memberikan dukungannya terhadap upaya pembentukan sebuah penyelidikan penuh di Senat Australia terhadap dampak pencemaran di Laut Timor saat ini.

"Jika kita mencermati isi surat elektronik Chris Twomey, maka tergambar jelas bahwa Pemerintah Federal Australia dan AMSA terkesan menutup-nutupi kasus pencemaran minyak di Laut Timor," kata penulis buku Skandal Laut Timor Barter Ekonomi Politik Canberra-Jakarta itu.

Salah satu bukti dugaan tersebut adalah sesungguhnya Pemerintah Federal Australia telah menghubungi Otoritas Indonesia dan menyampaikan secara resmi bahwa tumpahan minyak dari ladang Montara telah memasuki wilayah perairan Nusa Tenggara Timur (NTT) sejauh 51 mil atau sekitar 80 km tenggara Pulau Rote.

AMSA secara resmi juga telah mengundang pejabat dari Departemen Perhubungan Indonesia mengunjungi Australia untuk melihat kondisi pencemaran di Laut Timor. Namun, hasilnya tidak pernah diumumkan ke publik hingga saat ini.

Menurut laporan jaringan YPTB dari Sydney Australia, kata Tanoni, jumlah angka kebocoran minyak mentah, gas, dan kondesat yang telah menyembur ke laut Timor setiap harinya hingga saat ini belum diketahui secara persis.

Namun, di satu sisi, pihak Kementerian Lingkungan Hidup Australia dan PTTEP Australasia mengatakan hanya 64.000 liter minyak mentah yang menyembur ke Laut Timor setiap harinya.

Akan tetapi, laporan para pemerhati lingkungan di Australia yang membuat penelitian terhadap pencemaran menunjukkan bahwa tidak kurang dari 500.000 liter minyak mentah dimuntahkan setiap hari ke Laut Timor dari ladang Montara yang bocor.

Sementara itu, juru bicara Kementerian Energi Australia menyebutkan bahwa sekitar 2.000 barrel minyak, gas, dan kondensat menyembur ke Laut Timor.

"Kita mengharapkan agar Departemen Perhubungan tidak menutup-nutupi kasus pencemaran di Laut Timor saat ini karena apa pun juga alasannya telah terbukti, masyarakat di pesisir selatan Pulau Timor, Rote Ndao, dan Sabu telah merasakan dampak dari pencemaran tersebut," kata Tanoni.

Menurut dia, pemerintah harus bersikap tegas terhadap Australia sekaligus melakukan upaya-upaya antisipatif agar tumpahan minyak mentah yang saat ini sudah mencemari wilayah perairan Indonesia segera diatasi. Upaya tersebut untuk meminimalkan dampak kerugian yang dialami para nelayan dan petani rumput laut.

JAKARTA, — Forum Masyarakat Sipil Indonesia untuk Keadilan Iklim (Civil Society Forum for Climate Justice/CSF) mendesak negara-negara Annex 1 memenuhi komitmennya memotong emisi sebagaimana telah disepakati dalam Protokol Kyoto.

Perundingan Bonn Climate Change Talks yang sedang berlangsung (1-12 Juni 2009) seharusnya memastikan pemenuhan komitmennya dalam Protokol Kyoto, bukan menyodorkan proposal baru untuk mengamandemen Protokol Kyoto, kata CSF.

Pertemuan Juni merupakan saat yang tepat untuk mengubah arah perjalanan pembicaraan perubahan iklim. "Indonesia sebagai negara yang terkena dampak perubahan iklim harus memainkan peran dalam menentukan arah negosiasi, yaitu tetap fokus pada penurunan emisi secara nyata yang merupakan tujuan awal UNFCCC,” kata Koordinator CSF, Giorgio Budi Indarto.

COP 15 nanti benar-benar merupakan kesempatan terakhir dunia untuk mewujudkan keadilan iklim sehingga CSF meminta agar para delegasi yang hadir dalam Bonn Climate Change Talks II benar-banar mengambil tindakan yang dapat menyelamatkan dunia.

Masyarakat sipil juga meminta agar semua pembicaraan negosiasi Juni, baik mitigasi maupun adaptasi mengadopsi konsep HELP dalam solusi perubahan iklim yang ditawarkannya.

Masyarakat sipil Indonesia tidak akan menoleransi jika skema-skema penanganan perubahan iklim yang ditawarkan berpotensi merugikan masyarakat. Itu sebabnya, setiap tindakan konkret untuk mengatasi dampak perubahan iklim harus diambil tetapi tetap menjamin hak masyarakat.

Hal lain yang menjadi keprihatinan masyarakat sipil adalah mekanisme pendanaan yang seharusnya tidak boleh lagi bergantung pada model utang, proses manipulasi pengurangan emisi negara maju melalui mekanisme offset yang tidak akan dapat menstabilisasi volume GRK secara global.

Bagi Indonesia, upaya adaptasi dan mitigasi yang dilakukan tidak boleh lagi menimbulkan masalah baru, seperti konversi lahan tanaman pangan ke lahan tanaman bahan baku biofuel yang akan mengurangi kapasitas produksi pangan, atau pun mengubah ekosistem rawa gambut dan laut sebagai penyeimbang iklim mikro dan makro yang sangat erat dengan kepentingan ekologi, ekonomi, sosial, dan budaya setempat.

Pengelolaan utang ekologis sebaiknya dilakukan melalui mekanisme transitional justice. Kejahatan-kejahatan lingkungan harus diproses terlebih dahulu untuk menegakkan keadilan kepada para korban, dan untuk pemulihan ekosistem yang telah dirusak dalam praktek-praktek eksploitasi kekayaan alam oleh para korporasi multi nasional.

Forum masyarakat sipil Indonesia untuk keadilan iklim menegaskan, negara maju wajib mengontrol dan mengevaluasi investasi-investasinya di sektor kehutanan-perkebunan, di mana kedua sektor ini memasok kebutuhan primer mereka, yang berdampak kepada pembukaan kawasan hutan dan rawa gambut di Indonesia untuk industri perkebunan sawit dan hutan tanaman industri.

Mereka juga harus memastikan agar proyek-proyek uji coba dan modeling reducing emission from deforestation and degradation (REDD) yang didanai tidak melanggar hak-hak masyarakat terhadap kawasan adat, hutan, dan lingkungan hidup di Indonesia.

Tanpa memperhatikan berbagai hal tersebut, penanganan perubahan iklim tidak akan tercapai, dan perundingan UNFCCC hanya menjadi ajang bisnis karbon yang gagal menyelamatkan bumi ini, demikian CSF.
