Cause and effect - an musing

Equilibrium

Why I write this post?? Because I see a lot of enmity actions, ugly debate, until the human tragedy that is the attack on the twin tower of World Trade Center (often referred to as WTC 9/11). Also flood disaster in China, India, United States, Indonesia and other countries. There were many horrifying incidents throughout the history of human life until today. What the wrong? Okay... okaaay, you can says that is the foolish question.

Here, I write several happening which I worry about. According to you whether it is true of the cause and effect below:

CAUSE -- EFFECT -- CAUSE

  1. Global warming. Cause: gas emissions of Carbon Dioxide (CO2) and Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). I ever heard a joke: Too many human cause human body also produces warm. Just feel in a room (3x4 M) with 1 person and with 20 person.
  2. Flood and landslide. Cause: cutting down the forest carelessly.
  3. Conflict, war, terrorism. Cause: egoism, claim on the truth. Pssst... I rarely heard the claim on the mistake (ha..ha..).
  4. Racialism. Cause: superior feelings and under estimate to others.
  5. hmm... please help me for the next. Just for sharing.

The Old Testament that I like very much :

  1. A mother who afraid to swim will immediately jump into the pond in order to rescue her child who be under water.
  2. A dog that already pushed on a corner, if continuing to be pressed will turn to oppose you.
  3. Body could be controlled but NOT to the heart.

End of words, anything that will be conducted, think first about its result, whether it will disrupt the equilibrium or not. For example: equilibrium of politic, equilibrium of spiritual, equilibrium of nature (etc. help me for the next, please). I write this post just flowing from what I think without being edited again. May seem as random writing.

    Hi Ely, thanks for the comment.. I'm afraid that equilibrium or balance of politics, economy, people and environment could not be met because the policy makers are bias...and our wish to live a happy and balance environemnt also oppose to the interest of the few people in power (governance)

    Dear Iis
    The "cause" is on the policy makers and personal interest of the few people. I know it's not simple to raise our hope. I think... global warming is our responsible to our next generation. Please hand-in-hand together. There are many simple things that we can do to get involved and helping their programs. Please search with the keyword "global warming"
    Thank you very much for commenting here.

    The reality of cause and effect is undeniable. In fact that is the only truth in the phenomenal world. Good begets good and bad begets bad. As Easterners, this is something that all of us learn from childhood.

    Take your last blog. You overestimate lady's capability, which is a cause and she bangs into you, which is an effect. You are a big shot in a car, which is a cause, and the bystanders take her side, which is an effect! It just goes on and on like that.

    crude oil crisis in US and China has enforced them to generate a biochemical energy by maize. When the government announce the program, the food farmer in that two countries move from the rice to maize. And the food crisis has came since the food scarcity make the price rise.

    Is it CAUSE -- EFFECT?

    Wow... anda suka peptah itu juga. Terimakasih untuk bergabung di sini dan salam buat keluarga di kota Balikpapan.
    In English: Wow... you also like those testament. Thank you for join here and greetings for the family in the Balikpapan city.

    Dear Fajar Indra
    Thank you for the interesting question. Yes, crude oil crisis was "the cause" which make both countries to looking for another source of energy (the effect). The government announcement was "the cause" to races the farmers to move from rice to maize (the effect). Possibly they were interested by the maize price. And the race of the farmers to plant maize was "the cause" of the food/rice crisis (the effect).
    Finally, the race of farmers for plant maize has disrupted the EQUILIBRIUM of food (between maize and rice). The point was on the characteristics of human.

    NOTE: Maybe the case of the "Badan Penyangga dan Pemasaran Cengkeh" (BPPC) in Indonesia could be the lesson.
    Pssst....! when the rice crisis happened and its price has bounced then it was the luck day for the rice farmer.

    Dear Love Ely,

    Once again your blog has inspired me. It is reassuring to know that people around the world are concerned about our planet.

    Here in America, we need more emphasis on "cause and effect".

    Until people EVERYWHERE learn that greed and hurting others will eventually "bite back", we will continue to have people who cheat and steal and waste resources.

    The USA is facing financial problems for the entire nation, because of the greed of a few.

    Hopefully, in the future, we can work together for a better world.

    This is one reason I love blogging - I would possibly have never met you, or several other of my readers from around the world - if it were not for the internet and blogging.

    Keep inspiring us to think and become better people.

    Your friend,
    Brennan

VETO VS DEMOCRACY

In this post I only quotes the things associated with the two words above. Please use your sense and read carefully to find and feel the fundamental differences from it. VETO According to Wikipedia : A veto, Latin for I FORBID , is used to denote that a certain party has the right to stop unilaterally a certain piece of legislation. In practice, the veto can be ABSOLUTE (as in the U.N. Security Council, whose permanent members can block any resolution). In the United Nations Security Council, the five permanent members (the United States, Russia, the People's Republic of China, France and the United Kingdom) have veto power in substantive matters, though NOT in procedural ones. If any of these countries votes against a proposal, it is REJECTED , even if all of the other member countries vote in favor. According to Global Policy Forum : "The five permanent members of the Security Council (China, France, Russia, United Kingdom, and United States) ENJOY the privilege of veto po...

Condemns the Koran burning plan

Terry Jones, a pastor who leads a tiny church called "The Dove World Outreach Center" in Gainesville, Florida, U.S. plans to burn copies of Koran on September 11, 2010, as reported on New York Times with the title: A Bonfire in Danger of Spreading . The reason of this action is to commemorate the event of terrorist attacks on 9/11. Gosh, for me it's really a crazy plan. I warn you that your plan, if it really happened, will spreading the new tensions around the world and very possibly this event (burns the Quran) could be used by extremists as a justification to act further. I also condemn the creator of a Facebook page titled " International Burn A Koran Day " and urge the owner of Facebook to aware and immediately remove such page because the contents of this page just showing emotional debate, hatred and also stupid. Any negative actions will produce another negative reactions as opposed to you . If we really want to give a small contribution for peace and ha...

Dam burst tragedy and three important notes

On Friday, March 27, 2009, Situ Gintung dam at Cirendeu, Tangerang, southeast of Jakarta, has broken-down and the water flooded like a small tsunami, washing away cars, houses and settlement area. Ninety nine people were killed and 102 others were missing (update the number of victims from www.kompas.com on Tuesday, March 31, 2009). My condolence for victims and their family. From all of that, there are three important notes that I want to share through this blog. First , it is indeed the embankment that broken-down was caused by excessive debit of water. Situ Gintung levee was originally built under Dutch colonial authorities era, only able to accommodate 1 million cubic of water, while the debit of water before the incident has reached 2 million cubic of water debit. There should be early warning for residents who live around the embankment when felt there was something that threatens the safety of citizens. In Situ Gintung actually already there, but not work well. Second , allotm...
