  • The Coconut As a Renewable Energy Source
    The Coconut as a Renewable Energy Source By Julian A. Banzon, Ph.D., Academician ABSTRACT-SUMMARY The hopes that plants will be the renewable energy source of the fu. ture is dimmed by the possibility that such energy plantations may have to take over the lands needed for food crops. An energy inventoryof the Coco· nut Tree shows a uniqueness in being able to provide both Food and Fuel without need for periodic replanting or re-growing for well over 50 years. The Philippine annual harvest of 12 billion nuts from plantings of 377 million coconut trees, furnish an annual harvestable biomass of 18.9 million metric 12 tons with an energy �quivalent of 85.9 x to kilocalories. The food calories (oil and oil-meal) constitute 17.5% of the total calories. The major portion (32.5%) of the calories is then useable for fuel. Thus the coconut is to be looked upon more an an Energy tree. The magnitude of this energy reser­ voir (equal to ca 35 million barrels of petro oil) should spur concentrated research directed at utilization. Discussed in the paper, is the energy value in terms of LPG, of a coco­ nut, a coconut tree and a hectare of such trees. The information helps answer such questions as: how can coconut trees make the family kitchen self­ sufficient in fuel? Our predicament re-energy, is too well-known to be further discussed. Several steps have been taken to help alleviate the situation. Let me summarize: 1. sugar cane to produce ethanol 2. starchy material, e.g.

  • Jose Rizal : Re-Discovering the Revolutionary Filipino Hero in the Age of Terrorism
    JOSE RIZAL : RE-DISCOVERING THE REVOLUTIONARY FILIPINO HERO IN THE AGE OF TERRORISM BY E. SAN JUAN, Jr. Fellow, WEB Du Bois Institute, Harvard University Yo la tengo, y yo espero que ha de brillar un dia en que venza la Idea a la fuerza brutal, que despues de la lucha y la lenta agonia, otra vzx mas sonora, mas feliz que la mi sabra cantar entonces el cantico triunfal. [I have the hope that the day will dawn/when the Idea will conquer brutal force; that after the struggle and the lingering travail,/another voice, more sonorous, happier than mine shall know then how to sing the triumphant hymn.] -- Jose Rizal, “Mi Retiro” (22 October 1895) On June 19, 2011, we are celebrating 150 years of Rizal’s achievement and its enduring significance in this new millennium. It seems fortuitous that Rizal’s date of birth would fall just six days after the celebration of Philippine Independence Day - the proclamation of independence from Spanish rule by General Emilio Aguinaldo in Kawit, Cavite, in 1898. In 1962 then President Diosdado Macapagal decreed the change of date from July 4 to June 12 to reaffirm the primacy of the Filipinos’ right to national self-determination. After more than three generations, we are a people still in quest of the right, instruments, and opportunity to determine ourselves as an autonomous, sovereign and singular nation-state. Either ironical or prescient, Aguinaldo’s proclamation (read in the context of US Special Forces engaged today in fighting Filipino socialists and other progressive elements) contains the kernel of the contradictions that have plagued the ruling elite’s claim to political legitimacy: he invoked the mythical benevolence of the occupying power.
