Pitch

Focus on lost ecosystems of urban development . (Climate Colab ,I need Global option for my impact , regions option is not enough)


Description

Summary

To build a building on an area which grow grass , bush , tree we have to destroy the plants . After finishing , we never replant the same kind of these destroyed plants AT OTHERS PLACES . In reality , the environmental standard , LEED current version of all the countries on the world never force us to grow these plants again at others places . We can get LEED certificate of Green Buildings , ISO 14000 - Environmental Management certificate , industry certificate , agriculture certificate  , or meet US EPA environmental standards even we never replant destroyed plants . Our environmental standards were wrong , only focus on air , water , energy & forget destroyed plants , no nature conservation , no sustainability ( but in their minds , they misunderstand that they're protecting environment ) . Our policies about replant destroyed plants or reforestation , the accuracy can’t reach to each house , bridge , police station ,………. or positions of constructions have LEED , ISO 14000 certificate ,…… , NO NATURES CONSERVATION , no sustainability . If we solve this issue globally by planting destroyed plants , may be we can solve Climate Change , pls sign to stop this issue . How bad the wrong environmental standards damage our countries : 

When CO2 sequestration > CO2 emission at the Earth , after finishing all CO2 of Earth , it begin to decrease CO2 of atmosphere =>solve climate change . CO2 sequestration ability of lost ecosystems here are very important .Destroyed plants are our environment . We create environmental laws , green standards like ISO 14000 , LEED of Green Building to protect environment .  If environmental laws , green standards never force us to replant destroyed plants so when people have these certificate , they misunderstand about protecting environment

Category of the Action

Integrated action plan for the world as a whole


What actions do you propose?

 

-

 

Trembesi  VS tax VS diversity of natural systems

First , we only have 5 or 10 USD to solve CO2 of 1 family + 1 or 2 cars + Global Serious Errors of Design , Green Standard so I advice to solve this problem , we use Trembesi only . It’s impossible to plant 200 , 220 pine trees to absorb 14.8 tons CO2 emit by 1 average car in US by money of 1 family . Perhaps every year , this family have to spent 3 or 4 USD to take care of 3 or 4 Trembesi .   

As I prove we have annual planting tree tax , this is not correct if we destroy 1 tree and plant 1 tree if we focus on absorb CO2 value . If we destroy 1 tree type A  than we pay tax to plant 2 trees , so plant 1 tree type A and 1 Trembesi . This process will continue until CO2 of atmosphere decrease to safe norm . After that you can choose which type you intend to plant . 1 tree type A for Diversity of natural systems , 1 Trembesi  to decrease CO2 of atmosphere .

Environmental laws , green standard , LEED rating system must contain absorbing CO2 standard of environment before / after we build buildings , roads . To fix Global Serious Errors of Design , we find suitable area and plant Trembesi – an absorbing 28.4 tons CO2 tree to replace the plants we destroyed when we build buildings , road . These things should become a policy .

My propose actions :

We learn protecting environment at school . There are 125000 school in US and about 100 millions school in the world . I begin to call upon all school in the world to fix Global Serious Errors of Design before continue to teach kids protecting environment .

Next I will begin with governmental buildings . I can’t estimate this because I don’t have data . I will tell them to supplement absorbing CO2 standard into laws system .

We build a lot of roads around this world without knowledge about absorbing CO2 standard . So my advice is each km , mile plant 4 , 6 , 8 , 10 .......... Trembesis belong to how wide the road is and which type of trees , plant we destroy when we build roads .

The Impact of Proposal “ Global Serious Errors  of Design of the World , Environmental Laws “  on climate change :

 

Global carbon dioxide emissions from burning fossil fuels will rise to a record 36 billion metric tons (39.683 billion tons)

If in 18 years we emit same number of CO2 : 18* 39.683 billions ton CO2 , so in 18 year :

39.683 billions tons CO2  * 15 = 595.245 billions tons CO2 

1st  years old  Trembesi can absorb 2 tons CO2 , 2nd years old  Trembesi can absorb 4 tons CO2 , 3rd  years old  Trembesi can absorb 6 tons CO2 , 4th  years old  Trembesi can absorb 8 tons CO2 , 5th  years old  Trembesi can absorb 10 tons CO2 , 6th  years old  Trembesi can absorb 12 tons CO2 , 7th   years old  Trembesi can absorb 14 tons CO2 ,  8th   years old  Trembesi can absorb 16 tons CO2 , 9th   years old  Trembesi can absorb 18 tons CO2 , 10th   years old  Trembesi can absorb 20 tons CO2 , 11st   years old  Trembesi can absorb 22 tons CO2 , 12th   years old  Trembesi can absorb 24 tons CO2 , 13rd   years old  Trembesi can absorb 26 tons CO2 , 14th   years old  Trembesi can absorb 28 tons CO2 . I minus tolerance 10% . Total absorb CO2 in 15 year : ( 2+4+6+8+10+12+14+16+18+20+22+24+26+28 = 210 )  - 10% = 210-21= 189 tons CO2 form 1st year old to 15th  years old

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_road_network_size.

Total km of roads : 64,285,009 km .          

If we fix Global Serious Errors of Design of Roads , plant 4 Trembesi for 1 km :

6428009 * 189 tons CO2 * 4   = 4859574804  tons CO2 will be absorbed when Trembesi become adult .

Absorb water , good to decrease sea level rise , 1 Trembesi has a strong ability to absorb ground water , so I choose this tree absorb 100 liters water a days :

6428009 * 4 * 100 liters water inside 1 Trembesi = 2571203600 liters water .

We have 7.3 billions people , on average 4 people live in 1 house so total house we have is :

7300000000 / 4 =1825000000 houses in this world .

If we fix Global Serious Errors of Design of House

1825000000 houses * 189 tons CO2 * 4 Trembesi for 1 house = 1 379 700 000 000 tons CO2 .

1825000000 houses * 100 liters water inside 1 Trembesi * 4 Trembesi for 1 house = 730000000000 liters water .

We have about 100 000 000 school in this world , if 1 shool plant 50 Trembesi to fix Global Serious Errors  of Design of position of school :

100000000 * 189 tons CO2 * 50 Trembesi for 1 school = 945 000 000 000 tons CO2 .

100000000 * 100 liters water inside 1 Trembesi * 50 Trembesi for 1 school = 500000000000 liter water .

Absorb ( 1 379 700 000 000 tons CO2 + 945 000 000 000 tons CO2 + 4 859 574 804  tons CO2 ) =

Absorb 2 329 559 574 804 tons CO2 > Emit 595 245 000 000 000 tons CO2 in 15 years , if 1 year we emit 39.683 billion tons CO2 .

Total water stay inside Trembesi in 1 day : 2571203600 + 730 000 000 000 + 500000000000 = 1232571203600 liters water = 1232571203.6 metric tons water stay inside Trembesi , can’t become flood , storm , ….
