Reduce! Reuse! Recycle!

Satu lagi program yang telah berjaya menarik minat para pelajar ialah PROGRAM KITAR SEMULA yang telah dijalankan selama 3 hari bermula hari Selasa (22.06.2010) dan kutipan di ambil pada hari Jumaat (25.06.2010). Meskipun sekolah kami belum mempunyai tong sampah khas untuk kitar semula, tetapi kami berusaha untuk menjayakan program ini dengan sebaiknya. Pusat sementara pengumpulan kitar semula telah diwujudkankan di hadapan dewan sekolah. Semua murid menunjukkan minat yang positif dan secara tidak langsung program ini dapat memupuk sikap menghargai alam sekitar di kalangan pelajar. Kitar semula merupakan kaedah yang asas untuk meningkatkan kesedaran kanak-kanak tentang kepentingan mengekalkan keindahan alam sekitar. Kami akan meneruskan program ini dengan sebaiknya. Terima kasih kepada semua pihak yang terlibat bagi menjayakan program ini untuk sekolah kita.

Reduce! Reuse! Recycle!

The issues of pollution and the state of the environment have become worldwide concerns. Every time we turn on TV or read the newspaper, we are treated to the latest environmental disaster. Issues like water pollution, the greenhouse effect, ozone depletion and acid rain are discussed in every corner of the globe. This new awareness brings hope for the future. We need to work together to keep our planet clean and free of toxic wastes. Remember, earth is our only home.

Energy Saving Campaign

Pada hari Rabu (23.06.2010) yang lalu, pihak sekolah telah melancarkan satu lagi kempen "JIMAT TENAGA ataupun lebih diketahui oleh seluruh dunia sebagai ENERGY SAVING CAMPAIGN. Kempen ini bertujuan untuk memupuk sikap berjimat cermat dan yang lebih penting dapat mengurangkan penjanaan tenaga yang berlebihan. Hal ini kerana, tenaga elektrik ialah penyumbang utama kepada peningkatan suhu bumi. Tenaga elektrik dihasilkan melalui bahan bakar fosil. Oleh itu, pembakaran bahan ini akan membebaskan gas karbon dioksida ke atmosfera & menyebabkan suhu bumi semakin meningkat. Terima kasih diucapkan kepada pihak pengurusan sekolah terutamanya Guru Besar SJK(C) Pei Chai, En. Goh Woon Lai (PKC,PJK) yang menyokong dan memberi galakkan kepada pelancaran kempen ini. Kempen ini dilancarkan di dalam dewan sekolah dengan Guru Besar memberi penerangan tentang kepentingan menjimatkan elektrik untuk menyelamatkan bumi dan kemudiannya, ketua kelas diberi 'sticker' kempen untuk ditampal di dalam kelas serta kawasan sekolah. Diharap, dengan pelancaran kempen ini dapat memberi kesedaran kepada semua warga SJK(C) Pei Chai untuk bersama-sama memulihara alam sekitar yang semakin tercemar.

Say No To Tissue

We always encourage our students to realize that surroundings in our life will bring effects to our global warming. Simple things like using the tissue also can cause the global warming. Tissue is made by pulp. Pulp comes from bar of acacia and eucalyptus tree processed chemically. To make the tissue, they will clear cut ancient forest. Its impact, the wide of natural forest is on the wane replaced with the produce forest for tissue. Throughout the world, ancient forests are in crisis. Many of the plants and animals that live in these forests face extinction. And many of the people and cultures that depend on ancient forests for their way of life are also under threat. Ten million hectares (25 million acres) of ancient forest are being cleared or destroyed every year around the world. That's an area the size of a soccer field lost every two seconds. So, let’s together use the handkerchief or other alternative to save our Earth and it is also more economical! Let us say NO to tissue!

Our Green Zone

Planting trees is one of the easiest way to reduce our carbon footprint to become neutral. All of us in SJK(C) Pei Chai really support the trees planting program. We work together as a community in school to preserve our green area. These efforts really meant a lot to us, show our responsibility to save the Earth. Planting trees in school is one of the best things you can do for the local environment and for the planet. Trees are like the lungs of the planet. They breathe in carbon dioxide and breathe out oxygen.

Earth Day Song:

Plant a seed and you will see,
you will see, you will see,
Plant a seed and you will see,
What a beautiful world it can be.
(Sung to "Mary Had a Little Lamb")

Global Warming

What is global warming?

Global warming is when the earth heats up (the temperature rises). It happens when greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrous oxide, and methane) trap heat and light from the sun in the earth’s atmosphere, which increases the temperature. This hurts many people, animals, and plants. Many cannot take the change, so they die.

What causes global warming?

Many things cause global warming. One thing that causes global warming is electrical pollution. Electricity causes pollution in many ways, some worse than others. In most cases, fossil fuels are burned to create electricity. Fossil fuels are made of dead plants and animals. Some examples of fossil fuels are oil and petroleum. Many pollutants (chemicals that pollute the air, water, and land) are sent into the air when fossil fuels are burned. Some of these chemicals are called greenhouse gasses.

We use these sources of energy much more than the sources that give off less pollution. Petroleum, one of the sources of energy, is used a lot. It is used for transportation, making electricity, and making many other things. Although this source of energy gives off a lot of pollution, it is used for 38% of the United States’ energy.

Love The Earth

We strongly support this programme to create awareness among students to love, to care our environment and the Earth. We would like to thank BP Malaysia and Kementerian Pelajaran Malaysia (Unit Sukan, Seni & Kukurikulum) for giving us this opportunity to participate in this programme.
