Manila Bay reclamation will destroy ecosystems - Atienza AN independent lawmaker on Sunday said he "wholly supports" President Rodrigo "Rody" Duterte's strong stance against the reclamation of 100 square kilometers of Manila Bay, warning that the reclamation would destroy vital coastal ecosystems at a time when the national capital region is reeling from high fish prices amid declining harvests. "The proposed reclamation projects from the private sector are just meant to create large tracts of valuable new land and wealth for some oligarchs out there, at the grave expense of the environment," said Atienza, former three- term mayor of Manila. "These unwanted projects are bound to wipe out entire ecosystems, further 'degrade Manila Bay's water quality and disrupt the food chain in a big way," Atienza, one- time Secretary of Environment and Natural Resources, said. "Once destroyed, these underwater biological com- munities and their physical environment can never be recovered. They will be gone forever if the projects are allowed to push through," Atienza said. "What is the point of rehabilitating Manila Bay if the government is just going to allow private developers to bulldoze entire reef areas?" Atienza asked. Property developers, have tendered 25 projects to re- claim 10,000 hectares of Manila Bay. Duterte earlier said he was unlikely to approve the "mind-boggling" reclamation of MaruilaBay,fromNavotas City to Cavite province, "as long as there is no guarantee that the environment will be protected." In February last year, Duterte stripped the National Economic Development Authority (NEDA) of the power to approve reclamation projects and transferred it to the Philippine Reclamation Authority, which he also put directly under his office. Besides reducing Manila Bay's 190-kilometer coast- line, Atienza warned that the reclamation projects would usher in new highly pollutive activities around the water body. "Many of our municipal fishing grounds are already deteriorating fast. This is why our fish harvests are unable to catch up with growing demand, pushing (fish) prices up to the detriment of low-income households," Atienza said. Last month, the Department of Agriculture authorized the importation of another 45,000 metric tons of fish, including galunggong (round scad), in a bid to stabilize elevated market prices due to low supply. "We should be revitalizing Manila Bay's ecosystems, not flattening them with more reclamation projects," Atienza said. Ryan Ponce Pacpaco

ASA 600 residente ng San Fernando City, Pampartga ang nakilahok sa "Refill NRevolution" at nagtungo sa Poblacion Basketball Court sa Barangay Sto. Rosario, dala ang kartilang mga recycled plastic bottles at containers, na pinuno ng mga condiments at iba pang produlcto. Ang "Refill Revolution" ay isang advocacy campaign ng Department of Environment and Natural Resources-Environmental Management Bureau (DENR- EMB) sa Central Luzon na layong labanan ang plastic pollution sa pamamagitan ng pagbawas sa produksiyon nito at partgangailangan. Sa ginanap na aktibidad na inorganisa ng City Environment and Natural Resources (CENR0), nagkaroon ng oportunidad ang mga residente na makapag-refill ng mga kitchen condiments, laundry products, at iba pang household items sa pamamagitan ng pagdadala rig malinis at reusable bottles, containers at mga "eco bags". Ang mga prpclukto ay ibinebenta ng 50 hanggang 70 porsiyentong mas mababa kumpara sa aktuwal na retail price sa mga supermarkets. Ayon kay CENRO officer Regina Rodriguez, nais nilang maturuan ang mga residente na iwasan ang mga single-use plastics at sa halip ay isulong ang eco-friendly at mainam na paraan sa paggamit ng raga produktong platic. "We are encouraging every household to avoid regular purchase of products in plastic sachets or containers. If possible, re-use plastic containers and grab every opportunity of refilling activities," aniya, kasabay ng anunsiyo na isa pang Refill Revolution ang nakatakdang idaos sa February 21 bilang bahagi ng "Kaganapan" cityhood celebration. Samantala, muli namang inihayag ni City Mayor Edwin David Santiago reiterated ang kanyang hangarinpara sa San Fernando upang manatili itong "Zero-Waste City" sa kabila ng pag-unlad ng lungsod. "We are the first-ever model of Zero Waste City in the whole country. Let us prove it by remaining educated and disciplined enough to protect and preserve our environment," ani Santiago.. PNA

Editoryal Darning Pinoy ang ayaw sa plastic

YON sa survey, maraming Filipino ang gus- tong ipagbawal na ang paggamit ng single-use Aplastics. Ibig sabihin nito, nagigising na ang mga Pinoy sa masamang dnlot ng disposable plastics sa kapaligiran at kalikasan. Nakikita na nila ang mala- king problemang kinakaharaP sa plastic pollution. At ang tanging solusyon sa problema ay ipagbawal ang paggamit ng single-use plastics. Sa pinaka-latest survey ng Social Weather Sta- tions (SWS) na kinomisyon ng Global Alliance for Incinerator Alternatives, pito sa bawat 10 Pilipino ang gustong ipagbawal na ang paggamit ng plas- tics. Ginawa ang survey noong Setyembre 2019. Kabilang sa mga plastic na gustong ipagbawal ay ang sando at labo bags, straws, stirrers, styrofoam

containers, sachets, tetra pack ng juices, plastic na baso, kutsara, tinidor, botelya ng juice at tubig. Ayon pa sa survey, 59.8 bilyong piraso ng plastic sachets at 17 bilyon na shopping bags ang ginagamit sa bansa taun-taon. Ang Pilipinas ay pang-apat sa mga bansa sa Asia na sandamakmak kung magtapon ng basurang plastic sa karagatan. Nangtmguna ang China, ikalawa ang Vietnam at ikatlo ang Indonesia. Noong nakaraang thou, sinabi ni Pres. Rodrigo Duterte na balak niyang ipagbawal ang paggamit ng plastic sa buong bansa. Nabanggit niya ito sa Cabinet meeting makaraang mapanood ang pre- sentation ng Natural Resources Development Corp. na may kinalaman sa government program para sa environment at climate change. Maganda ang balak na ito ng Presidente at nararapat isuthng. Panahon na para ibawal ang paggamit ng plastic. Bagama't kailangan ito ng pagsang-ayon ng Kongreso, ang malaman na kontra siya rito ay malaking bagay para maisakatuparan ang balak. Panahon na para labanan ang plastic pollution. Dapat maisalba ang kapaligiran at buhay ng mga lamandagat. Damay sa pagkamatay ang mga whale shark na nakakakain ng mga plastic na basura. Ituloy ang giyera laban sa paggamit ng single-use plastic.

Maynilad kaakibat ng gobyerno sa rehabilitasyon ng Manila Bay

Patuloy na nakikipagtulungan ang Maynilad Water Services, Inc. (Maynilad) sa malawakang inisyatibo na linisin at muling buhayin ang Manila Bay, kasama ang Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System (MWSS), at lahat ng mga ahensya na may kaugnayan sa pangangalaga ng mga katawang-tubig.

Bukod sa walang humpay na pakikilahok sa regular na coastal cleanups at pagtatanim ng mangroves sa baybayin ng Manila Bay, hindi rin tumigil ang Maynilad sa pagbuhos ng puhunan para magpatayo ng bagong wastewater treatment facilities at sewer lines, na siyang sasalo at maglilinis sa maruming tubig na nilalabas ng mga tahanan at establisimiyento bago Ang paglalatag ng bagong sewer lines ay kailangan para dumaloy sa mga estero. rnapalawak ang sewerage coverage ng Maynitad sa West Zone concession,

Kaya naman nagpapatakbo na ang Maynilad ng 22 wastewater treatment facilities sa iba't-ibang bahagi ng concession area nito—mula sa dating dalawa lamang.

Gayun din, nakapaglatag na ang Maynilad ng mga bagong sewer line, at napalawak ang bilang ng customers na nasasakupan ng sewerage coverage nito. Kung dati ay mahigit 31,400 katao lamang ang nabibigyan ng sewerage services noong 1997, ngayon ay nasa 2 milyong katao na.

Samantala, patuloy ang pagbibigay ng sanitation services ng Maynilad sa mga customer na hindi pa konektado sa sewerage network nito. Mayroon itong tatlong ISO-certified Septage Treatment Plants, at 89 vacuum trucks na umiikot sa buong Sa pakikipagtulungan ng tha't-lbang ahensya, napalipat ang informal settlers mula sa easement ng Estero de Paco kaya West Zone para maglinis ng septic tanks ng customers kada nasagawa ang paglinis nito at paglatag ng sewer lines ng lima hanggang pitong taon.

Ito ay matapos mamuhunan ang Maynilad ng mahigit P41 bilyon para mapalawak at masaayos ang wastewater infrastructure sa West Zone ng Metro Manila.

Sa pamamagitan ng patuloy na suporta ng gobyerno at pakikipagtulungan ng publiko, sama- sama nating maisasakatuparan ang layunin na malinis ang mga estero, at mapaganda muli ang makasaysayang Manila Bay.

A MONUMENTAL DISGRACE

By Vernon Velasee

Mary had a resolution: declutter her life. "Start with something small,' advised her guru of tidiness on the Joys of giving up the extra stuff. "You're missing out on so many things when your hands are full.° In Mary's hands was a fast-food package she didn't know how and where to dispose of. It was New Year's Eve at Rizal Park. When the countdown trickled down to zero and fireworks lit to prompt the people to look up the sky, she craned her neck to check If anybody was looking. There was none, save for the oblivious eyes of Jose Rizal. "You can't see me," she told the statue, which was In a distance and safely out of earshot. Whereupon the fast-food package accidentally slipped From her hands so that they were free to hold her boyfriend's hand. If at all, Mary wasn't the only one. The rubbish that seemed to elude the park's ubiquitous bins and curbs found their way onto the park's pavement, the benches, the manicured lawns! The lawns! . Luneta may be free of the, extent of, pollution eating away at monuments half a -world away, and spared from vandallsms lost in tangled tributes and written in stones. - But the monumentwas facing an equally monumental problem. At this time of the year, wlien.droves flock to Rizal Park in Manila to revel at its yearly evening show, the national park buckles under the morning-after 'wawa discards people indiscriminately threw as if out of a moving car. • It's easy to visualize the scale of plastic waste, and it irks the Sanitation department. But at least the numbers are improving. The Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR) reckoned that the mound of waste amassed from the park shortly after it — hosted the New Year's Eve revelry was less than the Christmas ,- Eve garbage haul on the same year, which was pegged at 60 - metric tons (MT). It's a quantum leap even from the previous years, especially In 2014, when the cleanup crew collected 26 i truckloads, or a whopping 156 MT of refuse, hours after the . liNew Year celebration. Of course, the authorities didn't take it sitting down. The DENR has called on LGUs to pass local ordinances imposing a heftier 11,000 fine against Jitterbugs. The Environment department said the Rizal Park trash reflects the Filipinos' indifference to the environment, notwithstanding the nagging reminders by the DENR, government agencies and enVironnientai groups to keep public parks and places clean during the holidays. Last December, Environment Secretary Roy Cimatu declared a garbage crisis declared a garbage crisis but no pronoucement of PI billion budget for solid waste management this year. DENR Undersecretary Benny Antiporda underscored the need for local government units (LOU) to step up their implementation of Republic Act 9003, the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000, which prohibits littering, throwing and dumping of waste matter in public places and establishments, including parks, or causing or permitting the same. "If necessary, LOU should not hesitate penalizing titterers by imposing fines or making them render community service," Antiporda said. "Amending the law to impose stiffer penalties will be a long course. In the meantime, LOU can pass city or municipal ordinances to strengthen RA 9003." Antiporda also said the DENR would never get tired of reminding the public that taking care of the environment is not the sole responsibility of the government. 'Even if we have garbage collectors, street sweepers, volunteers and other nakeholders helping us, all our efforts for the environment will come to naught if site mindset of Filipinos is, there is always someone who will clean up after them,— he pointed out. Antiporda said the country's perennial garbage problem will never be resolved "if Filipinos do not do their share by simply minding their own trash and practice proper solid waste management everywhere they go."
