You've heard the term 3R above the often echoed by many environmentalists. 3R's are Reduce, Reuse and Recycle. We will add it into 4R 3R in the presence of Repair.
Reduce means we reduce the use of materials that could damage the environment. Reduce also means reducing spending on goods that you are not "too" need such as new clothes, or whatever additional accessories which in essence is a reduction in demand. Reduce also use tissue paper with a handkerchief, reduce paper use in offices with a print preview before printing so that no one, read online newspapers, and others.
Reuse means use again his own such as for example to give your used clothes to the orphans. But the closest is to provide clothes that are too small on your brother or sister, other than that baby clothes are just a few months of use is still good and can be given to relatives in need.
Recycle is a recycling of goods. The simplest is to recycle your organic waste at home, using plastic bottles of drinking water used or anything as a potted plant, to recycle waste paper to a paper return. Recycling on a large scale has not been the custom in Indonesia. The trash that differentiate between organic and non-organic is not the way. Eventually even more militant environment to recycle creatively and pass it to more people than the government.
Repair to make 3R 4R. Repair is much forgotten by many people, and this is actually the most important thing in Indonesia. Repair is the restoration effort for the sake of the environment. Examples of repair of damaged goods so that we can use again as we fix the broken-down shoes because then we do not need to buy new shoes. Another thing is the reforestation or greater improvement in this critical area because we could have a larger catchment area and hold an abundance of water that could cause landslides. Planting of mangroves is also an environmental improvement. Retreading tires also repair so that we can reuse.
There are so many things we can do the repair itself and indispensable in Indonesia. Most important is the creativity and the willingness of because without a strong desire, throw garbage on the street becomes easy. But if you are already familiar with the life that respects the environment, then you can easily refrain.
