Tingkatkan Minat Baca di Desa Banglas Barat, Tim KUKERTA UNRI Bangun Pojok Baca di SMPN 4 Tebing Tinggi

Banglas Barat - Membaca adalah suatu cara untuk mendapatkan informasi dari sesuatu yang ditulis. Semakin banyak membaca, semakin banyak pula informasi yang kita dapatkan, walaupun terkadang informasi itu kita dapatkan secara tidak langsung. Namun pada kenyataannya, minat baca remaja sekarang ini sangatlah rendah. Padahal, banyak manfaat yang dapat kita peroleh dari membaca. Banyak faktor yang menjadi penyebab rendahnya minat baca remaja. Salah satunya adalah karena semakin berkembangnya teknologi.

Untuk itu, perlu dilakukan berbagai cara dalam menanggulangi masalah ini. Salah satu solusi yang dapat diupayakan ialah dengan penyediaan sarana atau fasilitas membaca yang menarik.

Pelaksanaan pembuatan pojok baca dimulai pada hari Senin 23 Juli 2019 pukul 09:30 hingga 17:00 WIB, terlihat antusiasme siswa yang turut membantu pembuatan pojok baca. Pada Selasa 24 Juli 2019 dimulai kegiatan belajar bersama di pojok baca selama jam istirahat. Diharapkan kegiatan ini terus berlangsung secara rutin.

“Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there-on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

The Earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot.

Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the Universe, are challenged by this point of pale light. Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves.

The Earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the Earth is where we make our stand.

It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another, and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we've ever known.”
