Introduction:
I.                   66 years ago when the first time Indonesia got independent from Japan, we felt so proud to be a freedom country. Before that, we had a lot of war with Netherland, Portugal, and Japan. They were controlling Indonesia and made so much harmful in some place over Indonesia. The wars made so much bad impact to the society. It has been a long time ago, but it still hard to forget that bad thing in Indonesia history.

i.                    A family left without children
ii.                  A wife left without husband
iii.                A lot of places have broke
iv.                So much people being killed
v.                  But, God is blessed every one
B.     Indonesia struggled to get the real independent and stopped the war.
i.                    Every Indonesian in that time should go to war and help each other.
C.     We need to stop war wherever it happen and change to peace each other.

Thesis:
Stop the war wherever it is, because it kills a lot of people and breaks a lot of places, and the world should be more peaceful.

II.                 How many people each year due to war everywhere?
A.    According to the www.lenntech.com/environmental, accessed on January 5, 2012, states “Explosion bomb in Japan; the total estimated death toll: In Hiroshima 100,000 was killed instantly, and between 100,000 and 200,000 died eventually. In Nagasaki about 40,000 were killed instantly, and between 70,000 and 150,000 died eventually”.
B.     According to http://www.who.int, written by world health organization, accessed on January 5, 2012, it states; “Cambodia civil war – In 1966 the Prince of Cambodia began to lose the faith of many for failure to come to grips with the deteriorating economic situation. In 1967 rebellion started in a wealthy province where many large landowners live. Villagers began attacking the tax collection brigade, because taxes were invested in building large factories, causing land to be taken. This led to a bloody civil war. Before the conflict could be repressed 10,000 people had died”.
C.     In a personal interview with Lia Hartono as an exchange student in Newyork, accessed on January 6, 2012, she states, “When Indonesia still controlled by Netherland, each year we had about more than 1000 people died in every region of Indonesia. It just made bad thing in everywhere, and I’m glad Indonesia got independent already, so there is no more victim of war”.

Transition:
The war not only takes the lives but it also had bad effect to environments

III.              What the other effect of wars?
A.    According to www.postconflict.unep.ch/afghanistan, accessed on January 6, 2012, it states, “During the war of Afghanistan, extensive damage was done to the environment, and many people suffered health effects from weapons applied to destroy enemy targets. It is estimated that ten thousand villages and their surrounding environments were destroyed. Safe drinking water declined, because of a destruction of water infrastructure and resulting leaks, bacterial contamination and water theft. Rivers and groundwater were contaminated by poorly constructed landfills located near the sources”.
B.     According to the website of World War I, accessed on January 6, 2012, it states, “In terms of environmental impact, World War I was most damaging, because of landscape changes caused by trench warfare. Digging trenches caused trampling of grassland, crushing of plants and animals, and churning of soil. Erosion resulted from forest logging to expand the network of trenches. Soil structures were altered severely, and if the war was never fought, in all likelihood the landscape would have looked very differently today”.
C.     According to http://www.africa.upenn.edu/Articles_Gen/cvlw_env_sdn.html, accessed on January 6, 2012, it states, “In Africa many civil wars and wars between countries occurred in the past century, some of which are still continuing. Most wars are a result of the liberation of countries after decades of colonialization. Countries fight over artificial borders drawn by former colonial rulers. Wars mainly occur in densely populated regions, over the division of scarce resources such as fertile farmland. It is very hard to estimate the exact environmental impact of each of these wars. Here, a summary of some of the most striking environmental effects, including biodiversity loss, famine, sanitation problems at refugee camps and over fishing is given for different countries”.

Transition:
War is the world issue in today’s society.

IV.             What can we do to decrease war in the world?
A.    Be respectful with the other people
i.                    Don’t make a problem with other people
ii.                  Respect other people even though different ethnic, religion or whatever.
iii.                Make a good relation with other people.
B.     Stop the war wherever it happen. Call police if there is conflict between people. And if that is big war, the world should concern about it and make a step to getting peace each other.
C.     Thinking peaceful in the world. We live each other peacefully and help each other, nothing conflict and make a good relation with peace.

Transition:
The better thing in the world is if all people could live peacefully.

V.                Everybody need to life and living life. Don’t kill everybody with the war.
A.    Make the better world with peace.
B.     Keep a good relation wherever, and whenever we are.
