Our Earth is getting warmer and warmer each day. This effect is known as ‘Global Warming’. INTRODUCTION

THE MAIN CAUSE: The Greenhouse Gases Human activities have built a thick blanket of harmful gases around our Earth. These gases are known as ‘The Greenhouse Gases’. coal power plant (carbon dioxide) exhaust smoke (carbon monoxide)

raising farm animals (methane) chemical fertilizer (nitrous oxide) refrigerants (chlorofluorocarbons) deforestation (reduced of oxygen)

THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT – How It Happens? The sun sends down solar ray. Some solar heat is reflected back into space. 3. The more greenhouse gases there are, the more heat that is trapped and send back to the earth surface causing the temperature to rise. 2. The gases absorb some of the heat and stop it from reflecting back into space.

THE EFFECTS: Drastic Climate Changes drought cyclone flash flood tidal waves/ tsunami

Rising Sea Level 1: Retreating of Glaciers past present

Rising Sea Level 2: Melting Ice Caps past present

THE SOLUTION? Garbage Enzyme

Garbage enzyme is produced by fermentation of fresh kitchen waste (fruits and vegetables dregs), brown sugar and water. WHAT IS GARBAGE ENZYME?

This environmental friendly enzyme is developed by Dr. Rosukon Poompanvong of Thailand. She has been actively involved in enzyme research for more than 30 years and encourages people to make garbage enzyme at home to recover our Ozone layer and ease global warming.

Dr. Rosukon Poompanvong is the founder of the Organic Agriculture Association of Thailand. Working with farmers throughout Thailand and in Europe, she has succeeded in growing top-quality agricultural produce at no expense to the environment. She received an award for her outstanding achievement in organic farming by the FAO Regional Office in Bangkok in 2003.

酵素不仅可以代替一般家中的化学清洁用品， 最后也会流到下水道，还可以一起净化河流与海洋,保护我们的环境。 In short, garbage enzyme is a replacement for chemical laced detergents in our house. It helps purifying our water passage: the river and sea and protecting our environment.

Things you’ll need: water air-tight plastic container fruits or vegetables dregs brown sugar kitchen scale DO-IT-YOURSELF GARBAGE ENZYME

Mixing ratio: brown sugar kitchen waste water (1 ratio) (3 ratio) (10 ratio)

Pour 10 ratio of water into the container. Weigh the brown sugar. 1 2

Pour the brown sugar in. Stir and mix them well. 3 4

Weigh the kitchen waste. Add them in. 5 6

Stir and mix them well. Close the cap and jot down the date the mission begins. 7 8

Fermentation process will take 3 months.

Day 1 1 month Photos source: http://www.ueog.org 2 months 3 months

1. add a cap of enzyme 2. wash veggie throughly Photos source: http://www.ueog.org 3. put veggie in the basin 4. soak for 40 minutes MAKE-YOUR-OWN FRUIT & VEGGIE WASH

Follow the same steps for the fruits. Washing your fruits and veggie with garbage enzyme, clean and free them from chemicals such as pesticide residue.

Use a marker to make 10 equal lines on the container as a measurement. As a general rule to prepare whatever household cleaning products of your own: MAKE- YOUR- OWN BODYWASH

1 part of bodywash 1 part of enzyme 8 parts of water Add in: 1 2 3

Apply the same formula to other cleaning products as well.
