2010 : Environment Focus to Lessen Global Warming
hello to 2010, im sure everyone has read about the disasters in the sea, the disaster on land, and even man made disaster like the one in Magindanao, PHILIPPINES.
even our poor , old, EARTH was not spared from the smoke filled evening of December 31 to open the New Year, i suggest we really have to ban firecrackers, even those huge pyrotechnics, its really a mess, dont you think? the smoke , the noise, the pollution, the danger, and even using hard earned money to buy these things. If we can just use the money to donate to the less fortunate instead of the purchasing thousands of pesos just to burn. WOW! Maybe we should find another economic activity for the manufacturers of these fireworks? Let's suggest other livelihood endeavors. Hallow block making, tiles, lamps, even doormats, tree seedlings, live Christmas trees? (pine cones are available for planting in Bagiuo, maybe we can have these pine trees all over the country too)...smells nice and gives shades to the weary .
Anyway, we start the year right, im asking everyone to please change your incandescent bulbs to CFL or EFL lights soonest. I think that starting 2010, the incandescent bulbs will be phased out and stores will not sell it anymore. Thats good.
Let us all work together in making the environment our priority or else it will leave us breathless, no more air to breath, more diseases, and more problems.
Do more in your community by reminding them to clean surroundings, segregate plastics,
re use items, do not buy more than you need, and use less water.
We look forward to a better year if we work at it, united and happy.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Yes, July 16 will forever be etched in my memory too: this was my active years in media, and I got senmt to Cabanatuan to cover the collapsed school building, had a whole OB van and crew with me. . .I was not prepared for the sight that met my eyes.. .it smelled death everywhere, volunteers were pulling out bodies from the rubble, and we filmed that one studnet, pinned beneath two cement slabs, gasping for breath, pleading for people to help. . .that one video was met with varied reactions, most of them condemning us for using the suffering to gain media mileage. . .but you kno what the week we aired that vide, we raised around P4m which was used for relief operations. this was the beginning of the abs cbn foundation. . . b
