ENVIRONMENT
A. UNDERSTANDING THE ENVIRONMENT
Human life can not be separated from its environment . Both the
natural environment and social environment . We need to breathe air from the surrounding
environment . We eat , drink , health, environment all require .
Understanding the environment is everything that is around
humans that affect the development of human life , either directly or
indirectly . Environment can be divided into biotic and abiotic environment .
If you are in school , a neighborhood biotiknya school friends , teachers and
employees of the father's mother , and all the people in the school , as well
as various types of plants in the school garden and the animals around him .
The abiotic environment such as air , tables, chairs , blackboards , school
buildings , and various inanimate objects that are around .
Often an environment consisting of a fellow human being referred
to as a social environment . The social environment is what form the system of
socially large role in shaping one's personality.
B. ENVIRONMENT
In particular, we often use the term environment to mention
everything that affects the survival of all living creatures on earth.
As based on Law no. 23 In 1997, the environment is unity with
all things space and unity of living beings including human beings and their
behavior hold livelihood and well-being of humans and other living creatures.
The elements of the environment can be divided into three, namely:
*Elements
of Conservation (biotic)
*Socio-Cultural
Elements
a.Elements of Physical ( abiotic )
ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE
Based on
the causes , forms of environmental damage can be divided into two types ,
namely :
1 . Forms of Environmental Damage Due
to Natural Events
Various forms of natural disasters lately much struck Indonesia
has resulted in environmental damage . The enormity of the tsunami that
devastated the earth Veranda of Mecca and Nias , as well as 5 on the Richter
scale earthquake that leveled DIY and surrounding areas , is an example of a
natural phenomenon in a flash able to change the shape of the face more natural
bumi.Peristiwa impact on environmental degradation , among others :
a. Volcanic eruptions
Volcanic eruptions occur because of the activity of magma in the
earth's crust which lead to strong pressure out through the top of the mountain
berapi.Bahaya caused by volcanic eruptions such as:
·
Volcanic ash , causing
respiratory problems .
·
Lava hot , destructive ,
and deadly anything passed .
·
Hot clouds , can turn off
the living creatures that pass.
·
Toxic gases .
·
Solid material ( rocks ,
gravel , sand ) , can override housing , and others.
b. earthquake
An earthquake is the vibration of the earth's crust that can be
caused by several things, including the activities of magma (volcanic
activity), the soil down, and because the movement of the plates on the ocean
floor. Humans can measure how the intensity of an earthquake, but the man is
utterly unable to predict when an earthquake.
Therefore,
the danger posed by an earthquake more powerful than the volcanic eruption.
When the earthquake occurred a few events taking place as a result, directly or
indirectly, including:
·
Various buildings
collapsed.
·
Broke ground on the
earth's surface, the road to be broken.
·
Landslides due to shocks.
·
Flooding, due to damage to
the embankment.
·
An earthquake on the ocean
floor can cause a tsunami (tidal wave)
c . Windstorm
Storm
caused by the flow of air from the high pressure area towards low pressure .
Differences in air pressure may be due
to differences in air temperature striking . Offensive storm for countries in
the Pacific and the Atlantic Ocean are common place. For regions in California
, Texas , and also in parts of Asia such as Korea and Taiwan , the danger of a
catastrophic hurricane season. But for Indonesia only be felt in the middle of
2007 . This suggests that climate change has occurred in Indonesia that nothing
else was caused by global warming .
Hurricane hazard predictable through
satellite photos that depict the Earth's atmosphere , including the formation
picture gale , direction , and fast. Offensive storm (tornado ) can cause
environmental damage in the form of :
·
Demolish buildings .
·
Damage of agricultural
area and gardening.
·
Endanger the flight.
·
large waves that can sink the ship .
2 . Environmental damage due to Human
Factors
Man as ruler of the earth's
environment plays a major role in determining the environmental sustainability
. Humans as creatures of God who understands the world is able to change the
face of the simple life style of modern life forms to what it is today .
But unfortunately , what do humans
often not matched by the thought of a future life of the next generation . Much
progress was achieved by humans a bad impact on environmental sustainability .
Some forms of environmental
degradation due to human factors , among others :
Pollution ( air, water , soil , and
sound ) as the impact of the industrial area .
Flooding , as a result of poor
drainage or sewerage system and failure to maintain watersheds and the impact
of forest destruction .
Landslides , as a direct result of
human activity hutan.Beberapa damage that may directly or indirectly have an
impact on environmental degradation , among others :
·
Illegal logging (
deforestation) .
·
Poaching .
·
Damaging mangroves .
·
Hoarding swamps for
settlement .
·
Disposal of litter .
·
Illegal buildings in the
watershed ( DAS ) .
·
Utilization of natural
resources excessively out of bounds.
