Banyumas, Kompas - Daya pasok susu sapi perah dari Banyumas ke sejumlah industri pengolah susu atau IPS di Jawa Tengah setiap tahunnya kian menurun. Produksi susu di tingkat peternak juga tak menunjukkan perbaikan.

Bahkan, peternak harus menanggung kerugian karena harga susu selalu berada di bawah biaya produksi peternakan sapi perah.

Bendahara Koperasi Peternak Satria (Pesat) Banyumas, Jawa Tengah, Darwo Sukarso, Kamis (18/10), mengatakan, menurunnya daya pasokan susu ke sejumlah IPS di Jateng mulai terjadi pada awal tahun 2000. Sebelum tahun itu, Koperasi Pesat setiap harinya dapat memasok susu segar ke salah satu IPS di Yogyakarta sebanyak 7.000 liter. Namun kini, pasokan susu dari Koperasi Pesat ke IPS tersebut anjlok menjadi 4.000 liter untuk setiap dua harinya.

Film Denias Senandung Di atas Awan berhasil masuk panitia seleksi piala Oscar tahun 2008 lho!

Selain Denias, ada film Opera Jawa (Artika Sari Devi-Eko Surpriyanto) dan The Photograph yg tdnya mau diseleksi. Tapi akhirnya Denias yg terpilih diseleksi utk kategori film asing.

Bisa jadi Opera Jawa ga terpilih krn film itu seluruhnya berbahasa Jawa. Sedangkan bahasa Jawa bukan bahasa nasional, nanti juri bingung lagi ;D. Sedangkan The Photograph, meski judulnya bahasa Inggris (biar internasional kali maksudnya) tapi dialognya pake bahasa Indonesia. Yaah, ga konsisten kan.

Film Denias memang paling beda diantara setumpuk film buatan Indonesia yang “kacangan”. Buktinya di bioskop Blitzmegaplex, film ini sampai diputar ulang! Dan ttp rame aja tuh yg nonton. Tapi jangan bandingkan rame-nya film ini dengan film Jelangkung, Pocong, Kuntilanak atau Legenda Sundel Bolong ya!

Wajar aja sih. Untuk bikin film itu, produser Ari Sihasale dan Nia Zulkarnaen harus riset dan observasi dulu berbulan-bulan sblm dpt gambaran pasti soal tema cerita, juga tradisi di Papua. Pemilihan pemeran utama jg ga sembarangan. Skenario dibuat cermat berdasarkan riset dan observasi itu. Jadi soal kualitas emang bermutu.

Planning a vacation this summer? You’re not alone. Tourism as an industry is booming, and is growing every year. By 2020, according to the World Tourism Industry, international borders will be crossed roughly 1.6 billion times annually, as tourists zigzag back and forth across our ever-shrinking planet.

As a result, a network of grassroots movements dedicated to environmentally-friendly and socially-responsible travel is emerging. The International Ecotourism Society defines ecotourism, for example, as responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and improves the well-being of local people. Subscribers to pro-poor tourism aim to improve the living conditions of the poor population inhabiting their travel destinations.

A growing number of natural heritage organizations in countries across the world are offering volunteer tourism opportunities, sometimes known as voluntourism for travelers who would like to spend their holiday making a difference: building shelters, working on farms, cleaning natural parks. These kinds of holidays often offer access to more remote parts of the world that would otherwise be closed to commercial holiday-goers.

Di kawasan kota yang telanjur padat, memperoleh lahan terbuka bukanlah soal mudah. DKI Jakarta dengan lahan seluas 66.126 hektar dan ruang hijau 9 persen atau 5.951 hektar, perlu membebaskan sekitar 13.000 hektar lahan bila ingin memenuhi patokan lazim 30 persen lahan terbuka hijau.

Jepang juga menghadapi persoalan sama. Sejak abad ke-17, sifat land hungry (lapar lahan) dalam praktik mengonsumsi lahan perkotaan telah menyebabkan tampilan kota di Jepang tak jauh berbeda dari kota besar Asia lainnya.
