Plastic Waste A Real Challenge for Bali

Plastic Waste A Real Challenge for Bali

On July 1, an educational session regarding local environmental issues was held at Darma Cita Sambangan in Buleleng, North Bali. The session was attended by 13 students from the 10th grade, with instructors Mr. Didier and Mr. Budi collaborating to conduct the activity.

The activity was highly interactive, featuring a video showcasing the beauty of Bali island renowned worldwide. Mr. Didier posed a pointed question: "This is Bali?" and nearly all the children spontaneously answered, "Yes." After showing further video clips and photos of Bali's beauty, Mr. Didier asked again, "Do you love Bali?" and the children from Darma Cita answered in unison, "Yes! Yes!"

The session continued with the screening of several videos on the surrounding environment, including the condition of rivers and beaches littered with plastic waste. The same question was asked, "This is Bali?" "This is Bali," "This Bali," and the participants were all silent, shaking their heads. The question, "Do you love Bali?" "Are you sure? Love Bali."

The presentation proceeded with the instilling of concepts regarding the importance of environmental conservation and the various disastrous consequences associated with plastic waste. As a world-class tourist destination, Bali needs to be protected and preserved. The session was conducted according to the planned agenda.


Conclusion and reflection

Taking action to help reduce the plastic waste problem can begin with managing one's own waste as a matter of moral responsibility. Adopting a "my waste, my responsibility" mindset specifically through source based waste management is crucial; indiscriminate disposal or burning of waste can have fatal health consequences. An invisible danger lurking in this issue is the threat posed by microplastics derived from the plastic itself.

Carbon Trade Crisis

Plant trees before cutting them down Rethink before cutting down trees and printing paper! One A4 Pepper 226g CO₂ = equivalent to turning on a 10W LED light for 18 hours 1 ream of 500 sheets = 113kg CO₂ = equivalent to driving a gasoline car 450km 10 sheets/day at the office = 2.26kg CO₂/day. A year = 565kg CO₂ = 25 working trees a year From  the calculation of 226g is as follows: 1. Paper + Ink + Electricity Printer A4 sheet 80gsm + laser ink + printer electricity: ∼20-25g CO₂. Plus the Impact of Loss of Carbon Absorbers, 226g is used including "lost stored carbon" because 1 tree is cut down 1 mature tree absorbs ∼10-22kg CO₂/year. If 1 ream of 500 sheets = 1/8 of a tree, then the "carbon cost" per sheet is ∼25-45g. If you count young trees + factory energy + global transportation, it can go up to 200-227g. The numbers combine: Production emissions + Electricity emissions + Transportation emissions + Carbon that "should" be absorbed by trees if they are n...
