Kevin Surace menyarankan kita memikirkan kembali material dasar konstruksi -- seperti dinding -- untuk mengurangi jejak karbon yang dihasilkan dari proses manufaktur dan konstruksi bangunan kita. Dia memperkenalkan EcoRock, dinding gipsum bersih, hemat energi, dan dapat didaur ulang yang dibuat oleh tim nya di Serious Materials.

What's happening to the climate?
0
0
2000
Apa yang terjadi dengan iklim?
00:20
It is unbelievably bad.
1
2000
2000
Sangat buruk.
00:22
This is, obviously, that famous view now of the Arctic,
2
4000
3000
Ini, sudah jelas, adalah gambaran terkenal dari Arktik,
00:25
which is likely to be gone at this point
3
7000
2000
yang sepertinya akan menuju titik ini
00:27
in the next three or four or five years. Very, very, very scary.
4
9000
3000
dalam tiga atau empat atau lima tahun ke depan. Sangat, sangat menakutkan
00:30
So we all look at what we can do.
5
12000
2000
Kita lihat apa yang bisa kita lakukan.
00:32
And when you look at the worldwide sources of CO2,
6
14000
2000
Ketika Anda melihat sumber gas CO2 di dunia,
00:34
52 percent are tied to buildings.
7
16000
2000
52 persen berhubungan dengan bangunan.
00:36
Only nine percent is passenger cars, interestingly enough.
8
18000
3000
Hanya sembilan persen dari mobil penumpang, cukup menarik.
00:39
So we ran off to a sushi bar.
9
21000
2000
Jadi kami datang ke sushi bar.
00:41
And at that sushi bar we came up with a great idea.
10
23000
2000
Di sushi bar itu kami mendapatkan ide yang hebat.
00:43
And it was something called EcoRock.
11
25000
2000
Kami menyebutnya EcoRock.
00:45
And we said we could redesign the 115-year-old
12
27000
3000
Dan kami bisa mendesain ulang proses berusia 115 tahun
00:48
gypsum drywall process that generates
13
30000
2000
pembuatan dinding gipsum, yang menghasilkan
00:50
20 billion pounds of CO2 a year.
14
32000
2000
20 milyar pounds karbondioksida per tahunnya.
00:52
So it was a big idea. We wanted to reduce that by 80 percent,
15
34000
3000
Sebuah ide besar. Kami ingin menguranginya sebesar 80 persen.
00:55
which is exactly what we've done.
16
37000
2000
Inilah yang sudah kami lakukan.
00:57
We started R&D in 2006.
17
39000
2000
Kami memulai penelitian pada tahun 2006.
00:59
Decided to use recycled content from cement
18
41000
2000
Memutuskan untuk menggunakan hasil daur ulang semen
01:01
and steel manufacturing.
19
43000
2000
dan pabrik baja.
01:03
There is the inside of our lab. We haven't shown this before.
20
45000
2000
Seperti inilah isi lab kami. Kami belum pernah menunjukkan ini sebelumnya.
01:05
But our people had to do some 5,000
21
47000
3000
Tetapi kami telah membuat 5.000
01:08
different mixes to get this right, to hit our targets.
22
50000
5000
campuran berbeda untuk mendapat hasil yang tepat.
01:13
And they worked absolutely very, very, very hard.
23
55000
2000
Mereka bekerja sangat, sangat, sangat keras.
01:15
So then we went forward and built our production line in China.
24
57000
3000
Dan selanjutnya kami membangun unit produksi di China.
01:18
We don't build this production equipment any longer in the U.S., unfortunately.
25
60000
3000
Sayangnya, kami tidak lagi membangun peralatan produksi ini di AS
01:21
We did the line install over the summer.
26
63000
2000
Kami membangunnya selama musim panas.
01:23
We started right there, with absolutely nothing.
27
65000
2000
Kami mulai dari sana, benar-benar dari nol.
01:25
You're seeing for the first time, a brand new drywall production line,
28
67000
4000
Anda lihat untuk pertama kalinya, jaringan produksi dinding gipsum terbaru,
01:29
not made using gypsum at all.
29
71000
2000
yang dibuat tanpa gipsum, sama sekali.
01:31
That's the finished production line there.
30
73000
2000
Itu adalah bagian akhir saluran produksi.
01:33
We got our first panel out on December third.
31
75000
2000
Kami menghasilkan panel pertama pada 3 Desember.
01:35
That is the slurry being poured onto paper, basically. That's the line running.
32
77000
4000
Itu adalah bubur yang dituangkan di atas kertas.produksinya sedang berjalan.
01:39
The exciting thing is, look at the faces of the people.
33
81000
3000
Yang menarik adalah, lihat wajah-wajah mereka.
01:42
These are people who worked this project for two to three years.
34
84000
2000
Mereka adalah orang yang bekerja untuk proyek ini selama dua sampai tiga tahun.
01:44
And they are so excited. That's the first board off the line.
35
86000
3000
Dan mereka sangat bergairah. Itu adalah produksi papan pertama.
01:47
Our Vice President of Operation kissing the board. Obviously very, very excited.
36
89000
4000
Wakil Direktur Operasi kami mencium papan itu. Jelas sangat, sangat bahagia.
01:51
But this has a huge, huge impact on the environment.
37
93000
3000
Hal ini membawa pengaruh sangat besar bagi lingkungan.
01:54
We signed the first panel just a few weeks after that, had a great signing ceremony,
38
96000
4000
Kami menandatangani papan pertama beberapa minggu setelahnya dengan upacara besar.
01:58
leading to people hopefully using these products across the world.
39
100000
4000
Orang-orang pun mulai menggunakan produk ini di seluruh dunia.
02:02
And we've got Cradle-to-Cradle Gold on this thing.
40
104000
2000
Kami juga mendapatkan Cradle to Cradle Gold untuk produk ini.
02:04
We happened to win, just recently, the Green Product of the Year
41
106000
2000
Kami memenangkan, baru saja, Green Product of the Year,
02:06
for "The Re-Invention of Drywall," from Popular Science.
42
108000
3000
untuk "Penemuan kembali Dinding Gipsum", dari Popular Science.
02:09
Thank you. Thank you.
43
111000
2000
Terima kasih. Terima kasih.
02:11
So here is what we learned: 8,000 gallons of gas
44
113000
3000
Jadi inilah yang kami pelajari. 8.000 galon gas
02:14
equivalent to build one house.
45
116000
2000
untuk pembangunan sebuah rumah.
02:16
You probably had no idea. It's like driving around the world six times.
46
118000
2000
Anda mungkin tidak tahu. Ibarat mengendarai mobil mengelilingi dunia enam kali.
02:18
We must change everything.
47
120000
2000
Kita harus mengubah semuanya.
02:20
Look around the room: chairs, wood,
48
122000
3000
Lihatlah di sekeliling ruangan, kursi, kayu.
02:23
everything around us has to change or we're not going to lick this problem.
49
125000
3000
Semua hal di sekitar kita harus berubah atau masalah takkan terpecahkan.
02:26
Don't listen to the people who say you can't do this, because anyone can.
50
128000
3000
Jangan dengarkan mereka yang berkata anda tidak bisa, karena semua orang bisa.
02:29
And these job losses, we can fix them with green-collar jobs.
51
131000
3000
Kami bisa memecahkan masalah pengangguran dengan pekerjaan ramah lingkungan.
02:32
We've got four plants. We're building this stuff around the country.
52
134000
2000
Kami memiliki empat pabrik. Kami sedang membuat benda ini di seantero negeri.
02:34
We're going as fast as we can.
53
136000
2000
Kami bergerak secepat mungkin.
02:36
Two and a half million cars worth of gypsum,
54
138000
3000
Gipsum yang setara dengan dua setengah juta mobil,
02:39
you know, CO2 generated. Right?
55
141000
2000
dalam menghasilkan CO2.
02:41
So what will you do? I'll tell you what I did and why I did it. And I know my time's up.
56
143000
3000
Jadi apa rencana Anda? Saya beritahu apa dan kenapa saya melakukannya. Saya tahu waktu saya sempit.
02:44
Those are my kids, Natalie and David.
57
146000
2000
Ini adalah anak saya, Natalie dan David.
02:46
When they have their kids, 2050,
58
148000
2000
Saat mereka memiliki anak, 2050,
02:48
they'd better look back at Grandpa and say,
59
150000
2000
anak mereka akan melihat kakeknya dan berkata,
02:50
"Hey, you gave it a good shot. You did the best you could
60
152000
2000
"Kakek telah mencobanya. Kakek telah melakukan yang terbaik
02:52
with the team that you had."
61
154000
2000
bersama tim Kakek."
02:54
So my hope is that when you leave TED,
62
156000
3000
Jadi saya harap setelah Anda meninggalkan TED,
02:57
you will look at reducing your carbon footprint
63
159000
2000
Anda akan mencoba mengurangi jejak karbon Anda
02:59
in however you can do it.
64
161000
2000
dengan cara apapun yang Anda bisa.
03:01
And if you don't know how, please find me -- I will help you.
65
163000
3000
Jika Anda tidak tahu bagaimana, temuilah saya. Saya akan menolong Anda.
03:04
Last but not least, Bill Gates, I know you invented Windows.
66
166000
3000
Akhir kata, Bill Gates, saya tahu Anda menemukan Windows.
03:07
Wait till you see, maybe next year, what kind of windows we've invented.
67
169000
3000
Tunggu sampai Anda lihat, mungkin tahun depan, "windows" jenis apa yang kami temukan.
03:10
Thank you so much.
68
172000
2000
Terima kasih banyak.
03:12
(Applause)
