PREFACE
Finally after every each meeting, discussion, and our
hardworking in a very strict’s schedule of us. We are as the
one of candidates group of IAAS,proudly present this virtual
magazine. This virtual magazine created by us, as the part of
our effort to run the project by IAAS which is themed “Save
Our Environment”.
In a very tight and rush moment by the college’s
stuff,midterm,the praktikum,and etc, It’s kind of impossible
for to and run this project.But by our passion as the
candidate of IAAS’er who wanted to be a real IAAS’er,we’re
done anything impossible be possible.
So just enjoy this out....!!

A Clean Water Crisis
The water you drink today has likely been around in one form or another
sincedinosaurs roamed the Earth, hundreds of millions of years ago.
While the amount of freshwater on the planet has remained fairly constant over
time—continually recycled through the atmosphere and back into our cups—the
population has exploded. This means that every year competition for a clean,
copious supply of water for drinking, cooking, bathing, and sustaining life
intensifies.
Water scarcity is an abstract concept to many and a stark reality for others. It
is the result of myriad environmental, political, economic, and social forces.
Freshwater makes up a very small fraction of all water on the planet. While
nearly 70 percent of the world is covered by water, only 2.5 percent of it is
fresh. The rest is saline and ocean-based. Even then, just 1 percent of our
freshwater is easily accessible, with much of it trapped in glaciers and
snowfields. In essence, only 0.007 percent of the planet's water is available to
fuel and feed its 6.8 billion people.
Due to geography, climate, engineering, regulation, and competition for
resources, some regions seem relatively flush with freshwater, while others
face drought and debilitating pollution. In much of the developing world, clean
water is either hard to come by or a commodity that requires laborious work or
significant currency to obtain.

WATER POLLUTION In INDONESIA
TEMPO.COM, Jakarta - The NGO Indonesian Forum for Environment (Walhi)
said the findings of the Ministry of Environment that water pollution in Indonesia rose
30 percent according to estimates. "We agree with the findings of the Ministry," said
the head of the Department of Advocacy Walhi, Mukri Friatna, when contacted on
Friday, April 6, 2012.
This is a big problem that is being faced by Indonesia. Walhi findings indicate
the dominant cause of water pollution is the contamination of waste palm oil plantation
that was allegedly prevalent in Borneo and Sumatra. The second is the predominant
cause of mining, especially coal and gold mining. The third cause is industrial waste and
pollution causes the latter is domestic waste.
"In some big cities is the highest domestic
waste. But the scale is not too large compared
to other wastes, "he said.
Some of the areas that have the highes
contamination rate was larger cities such as
Jakarta and Surabaya.
The main problems regarding water pollution occurred in several regions in
Indonesia is less public cares for the environment and the lack of knowledge to use and
maximize water use. water pollution from the mining area and the company that stands
in Indonesia caused by weak law enforcement in Indonesia. The establishment of a
company that does not comply with the AMDAL still made the development process. So
it causes worsening environmental pollution occurring numbers, especially water
pollution caused by post-production waste is dumped in the river.

SAVE OUR WATER
Water Is Life
Wherever they are, people need water to survive. Not only is the human body 60
percent water, the resource is also essential for producing food, clothing, and
computers, moving our waste stream, and keeping us and the environment
healthy.
Unfortunately, humans have proved to be inefficient water users. (The average
hamburger takes 2,400 liters, or 630 gallons, of water to produce, and many
water-intensive crops, such as cotton, are grown in arid regions.)
According to the United Nations, water use has grown at more than twice the
rate of population increase in the last century. By 2025, an estimated 1.8 billion
people will live in areas plagued by water scarcity, with two-thirds of the
world's population living in water-stressed regions as a result of use, growth,
and climate change.
The challenge we face now is how to effectively conserve, manage, and
distribute the water we have. Learn where freshwater resources exist; how
they are used; and how climate, technology, policy, and people play a role in both
creating obstacles and finding solutions. Peruse the site to learn how you can
make a difference by reducing your water footprint and getting involved with
local and global water conservation and advocacy efforts.

The Underground Water Purifier
As one of the effort to save our water to save our
environment. Us, the group 4 are trying to create the underground
water purifier. This underground water purifier are created to
purify the trench water from the household waste,so that trench
water could be contain and use again.
This water purifier actually quite similar to others water
purifier, which made from the several waste thing such as
gravel,sand,brick,charcoal,tile,and coconut fiber.But it’s could be
different because it put underground,so it can through by the
trench water,and the water could be purify.

How It Work?
1. Waste water flowed from the household through the
trench.
2. Water from trench flows into the underground water
purifier
2. then flows into the pipe
3. water stored in the water tank
