On 15, August 2016 I and my two other friends were interviewed by the television program called “Be Smart Clean Environment.” The main question that I need to answer is how renewable energy helps to decrease the pollution in Cambodia. It was a really tough questions and we need to do it in Khmer. But finally everything worked really well. I chose the topic about the biodigester and my other two friends chooses the hydro power and wind energy. It takes me about a week to get the idea and finding good reasons to support the main idea. Finally I got this.
I get to talk about biodigesters and how it can be an effective way to solve the renewable problems in Cambodia.
I positively think that Biodigesters will be the great renewable energy that can decrease the pollution in Cambodia. But first what is a biodigester? Biodigesters are a type of renewable energy that uses the animal’s poo to create gas, which is used mostly for cooking and lights. I think that Biodigesters are a great solution. Let’s check out some benefits of using biodigesters. They save money, save time, are green and make a better environment and are good for people’s health. Let’s see how it also helps to decrease pollution. Most Cambodian people use firewood to cook. While cooking, you can see a lot of smoke caused by burning the firewood. Imagine how bad for your lungs it is if you breathe in all that bad smoke from firewood. But if you cook with the gas from a biodigester, it is harmless to your health. What if the smoke spread outside of your home, to the air? That will 100% create the pollution. But if we used biodigesters instead of cooking with firewood it will make our environment clean. Another connection to this. Where does firewood come from? All firewood comes from cutting down huge trees in the forest. If we stop using firewood and instead use biodigesters there will be less trees cut down. Trees are a great natural resource for us humans. No matter small or big, trees are an agent that help to clean the environment. If trees are cut to make firewood then we are losing the agency whose job it is to clean the environment. So if we start using the biodigester more, trees will not be cut down and our environment will become cleaner. Ergo, if we start using biodigesters, it helps to decrease the pollution and our environment will becoming greener.
When the interview started I got frighten and scare. But after getting involving with the MC and the camera I get really comfortable. Therefore, finally everything go smoother than what I expected.
