Wind
Power
- harness
from wind generator in which
maximum power can't be any
greater than the kinetic
energy of the air which
passes through it per unit
time
- kinetic
energy harness is directly
proportional to (speed)3
- expected
actual power output would be
a percentage of this,
depending on the speed of
the air after it has passed
through the generator and on
such factors as friction,
radius of blade of the wind
generator and density of air
Water
Fuel Cell
- water
as the source of energy
which is separated into
hydrogen and oxygen by a
high voltage, high frequency
electromagnetic field
generated from a card of 12V
battery
- exhaust
gases are a mixture of air
and water vapor that is
released back to atmosphere,
eventually falling as rain
- used
in fuel cards, trucks,
buses, aircraft, ships and
power stations as well as
any other equipment that
uses coal, oil or gas as
their current energy source

Catalytic
Converters
- installed
in automobiles and various
types of filters and
scrubbers in industrial
plants
- exhaust
gas transferred through
small beads coated with
metal that promote reactions
neutralizing hazardous gases
to harmless ones
Transportation
Alternatives
- Car
pooling
Sharing of vehicles
between individuals for
transportation to work, as
adopted by Malaysian
Government to reduce vehicle
traffic on road and also
reduce the emission of
exhaust gases (i.e. carbon
monoxide (CO), carbon
dioxide (CO2),
oxides of nitrogen (NOx),
lead (Pb) and sulphur
dioxide (SO2)
- Public
transport
Promote the use of
public transport for example
underground rail or monorail
which is fast, efficient and
environmental friendly,
produce minimal emissions of
greenhouse gases
Maintenance
of Machineries and Vehicles
- regular
check ups and replacements
of parts to ensure smooth
and efficient use of the
machineries and
transportation
- ensure
the performance of
machineries and
transportation to meet the
standard requirement, so as
not to produce any hazardous
material to be emitted to
the environment
