SAVE OUR EARTH in just an easy step

 

Nowadays, Global Warming is seriously affecting our Earth. In the past 100 years, the earth’s average temperature has increased by 0.8 °C (1.4 °F) due to greenhouse gas produce by human activities like deforestation & burning of fossil fuels. The increase of global temperature caused the sea level to rise, especially in the Arctic which would be associated with the continuing retreat of glacier. The climate and weather has become more erratic , there are more frequent occurrence of extreme weather like heat wave, drought or flooding from heavy rainfall. This warming may eventually result in the extinction of 25 percent of the world’s species by 2050.

According to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the sea level has risen 15 to 20 cm in the last 100 years. And in the last 30 years, around 386,000 miles of Arctic sea ice have melted away. If this continues, the Arctic sea ice could probably disappear completely.

Below are video taken from www.arctic.io, showing the Arctic Sea ice melting in 100 days between 30-3-2012 to 08-07-2012. It is especially severe in the Kara Sea area, it became ice free within a few days.

全球暖化正嚴重影響我們的地球。在過去的100年裡,地球的平均溫度已經上升了0.8°C(1.4°F)這是由於人類大量砍伐森林和燃燒化石燃料而產生溫室氣體效應。全球氣溫上升導致海平面上升,特別是在北極,冰河撤退問題已達嚴重情況。氣候和天氣變得極不穩定,頻繁的熱浪,乾旱或因毫雨而產生的洪水等極端天氣時有發生。氣候變暖在2050年最終可能會導致世界上25%的物種滅絕。

根據美國環境保護局(EPA)的資料,在過去的100年中,海平面上升15至20厘米。在過去的30年裡,北極約386,000英里的冰川已經融化掉了。如果這種情況持續下去,北極冰川極有可能會完全消失。 

以上視頻是出自於www.arctic.io,顯示北極冰川在100天內(由2012年3月30日至2012年8月7日之間的融化情況。於卡拉海地區尤為嚴重,冰川在幾天之內已經完全消失了。 

What can we do to help?

We can help to reduce the carbon dioxide emissions by consuming less electricity and energy. Try to turn up your air-conditioner & turn down heater by few degrees & this can help a lot. Using ceiling fans will be a good choice, too! Most ceiling fans use only about as much power as a 60 watt light bulb, it provide a natural energy saving cooling & warming solution.

我們可以做些什麼?

我們可以幫助消耗更少的電力和能源,以減少二氧化碳的排放量。嘗試調高冷氣和把暖氣的溫度調低,已經有很大的幫助。而使用吊扇,亦是一個很好的選擇!大多數吊扇的耗電量只大約相等於一個60瓦的燈泡,它是能夠解決能源的過度消耗問題。

Save Energy with Ceiling Fan

Ceiling fans provide a natural energy saving cooling solution . It consumes less energy which can effectively help to protect our Earth. Ceiling fans will also save money in utility bills in both the winter and summer months.

All Fanaway models (EVO 1 and 2) include a reversible option. This allows for the recirculation of cool air from the ground level during Summer time & hot air back down into the living space during Winter, effectively reducing the energy & electricity consumption by air conditioning & heater.

Most of the parts in Fanaway are made from recyclable materials, the blades are made from plastics, the down rod, upper dome and mechanism base are made of metal and the light dome is made from plastic.

The Fanaway blades are desinged to use less enery to provide more airflow at at low cost. This increasingly efficient design makes Fanaway a more attractive solution to cooling a room, further reducing the need for power hungry air conditioning.

吊扇可以節省能源

吊扇提供了一個天然的節能製冷解決方案。它消耗更少的能源,可以有效地幫助保護我們的地球。吊扇也能有效地在冬季和夏季節省賬單費用。 

所有Fanaway型號 (EVO1和2)都包括一個可逆轉的模式。可於夏季時從地面把冷空氣循環向上, 於冬季期間把暧風從天花帶回地面,有效地降低空調和暧爐的電力消耗, 從而節省能源。

Fanaway大部分部件是由可回收材料製成,扇葉及燈罩是由塑料製成,而掉桿和吊扇上半部分則是由金屬製成的。

Fanaway風葉設計令可減少能源的耗用,以較低的能源提供更大的氣流。高效的設計使得Fanaway更具吸引力,進一步降低空調的電力耗電。
