Whenwomen's Power Is Wisely Used in Negros talkingpoints When Women’s Power is Wisely Used in Negros by Romana de los Reyes Tired of the pressures of urban life, I decided to quit working in 1997. I ended my more than 20-year career with one of Ateneo de Manila University’s social science research institutes which I headed for a decade. Going home to my birthplace, where life would be definitely less stressful, was the most attractive choice. But as soon as I came home, I learned about a coal-fired power plant that was to be built just some three kilometres away from my home in Bago, Negros Occidental. I did not know anything about power plants before I came home. But I knew the disease that blackens the lungs of coal miners. I also knew that coal power plants are not good for human health and the environment. Indeed, my subsequent research revealed that coal plants release a combination of toxic metals and compounds such as mercury, lead, cadmium, and hexavalent chromium that are deadly to human health. They emit sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxide that cause respiratory problems. Ultimately, they release greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide) that are responsible for global warming. Moreover, the pollution that is generated from coal handling and storage and waste discharges Campaigner Romana The coal plant was proposed by a has adverse impacts on freshwater sources de los Reyes, now a consortium of three power firms—Ogden doting grandmother Energy, now known as Covanta Energy and marine resources. to Jacob Carl.
