Introduction

Our group is talking about floods in Jakarta. Because every year Jakarta experience flood. The worst flood happened in February 2007. There was no electricity in some of areas for 3 days, communication was disturbed because Telkom Tower and Mobile Phone Operator Tower were also flooded. Many people were forced to leave their houses and stayed in shelter.

Experiment

My group is doing an experiment about how flood is created. The materials we used is synthetic paint, cement mixed with flint coat, newspaper, glue, wood and some water prove paint. I made the box, the box's height was 10 cm the wide was 50 cm and the length was 90 cm long.The down part of the box was with the mixture of cement and flint coat. Justin and mark made the pulp with glue, water and some newspaper. Than finally we put the mountain into the box.

My second inquiry

There are many ways to prevent flood. Some of the ways to prevent flood is to prevent:
Global Warming
Manage Garbage (Reduce, reuse and recycle)
Deforestation

Global Warming

Global warming is causing the ozone layer to get thin and have holes. By having holes in the ozone layer the sunshine will hit the Iceberg to melt, and sea level will increase. To prevent global warming use bikes rather than motorbikes or cars in the neighborhood. Also use environmentally friendly products. Finally use public transportations such as busses.

Deforestation

Did you know that 20 rugby fields of forest are cut down in a single minute. Because of that the soil could not absorb water because there are no more trees, so there are no roots that can hold water. There are so many trees that are illegally logged and burned. Also because of manufacturing. Manufacturing cuts trees to make products such as tissues or papers. To prevent deforestation the government needs to have a strict law. People that are manufacturing needs to be more responsible by planting more trees.

Waste Management

Did you know that people in Jakarta throw 25 meters of garbage everyday; they throw it to the streets, lakes and rivers? Because of that, the water gate will be stuck and the drain age system will be blocked. There are many ways to manage waste, you can reduce, reuse and recycle. By reducing, you can refuse to use plastics and use old plastics from your house. By reusing, you can reuse old papers for scrap papers. By recycling, you can recycle plastics into stuff.

Flood causes people to suffer from sickness. Flood makes businesses to stop. So by preventing these three ways, you can save people from suffering.

The performance

The flood controllers will make a band and it will tell the audience about our first inquiry(what causes flood in Jakarta). I can show my talent by playing guitar because I have learn guitar for 3 years. The purpose of doing this is to show that we care about the city that are flooded.Our performance is only about 5 minutes long. We need a Drum and some mikes.

Concepts

The 2 concepts that our group choose were responsibility and connection. Our group choose responsibility because we need to be responsible for the causes of flood. We also choose connection because flood connects to many things, one of them is sicknisses.
