an effort

basically, without any means of being conceited or anything, i'm pretty passionate about enviroment issues. apalagi kerasa kan skarang2 ini, jakarta jadi panasss luar biasa..
apalagi kuliah di cempaka putih. gersanggg..


being passionate doesn't mean that i'm in any certain organizations that promotes efforts to save the planet or anything, i just try simple things.
misalnya, basically i hate it kalo orang buang sampah sembarangan.
jadi kalo ada sampah tapi gue ga nemu tempat sampah, gue bawa2 deh di tas.
sampe sering diledekin temen2 karna isi tas banyak sampahnya. hehehee.

i try to minimize the amount of papers i use daily, kayak pake tulisan kecil2.. biar aja kalo gue doang yang bisa baca. hahaha..

yah, pokoknya gitu2 doang..

i believe my parents have a key role in my passion for enviromental issues..
they taught me a lot about appreciating nature, and i remember participating in a planting a thousand trees sort of thing.

in par with that, lately, my dad has developed a new hobby..
berkebun.

mostly tanaman sayur2an macemnya pare, terong, jadi bisa dipanen buat makanan sehari-hari.. hehehe..
foto2 hobbynya Bapak ini bisa diliat di blognya Mama..

anyways, one day ada yang tiba2 mindah2in pot2 tanamannya Bapak itu.. sempet juga kadang ada yang metikin buahnya ato apa gitu dengan sembarangan..
akhirnya daripada marah2 ga jelas, Mama nyaranin Bapak bikin surat terbuka aja.
surat terbukanya sih inti isinya kira2 begini: rather than messing up my plants, if you want one for your home, just take it and take care of it. we're doing this for free, as an effort to contribute for nature -- but if you're just messing it up, hands off dude.
hahaha. yaa itu artian kasar sih dari isi suratnya..
surat terbuka itu pun disebar se-RT..

what i'm really trying to say is, like my dad said, it's an effort.
but imagine if more and more people do what they can do, how little effort it is, surely global warming wouldn't be such a problem, right?
=)
happy gardening!
