I was saddened to know that the International Coastal Cleanup is over. It is an event where companies invite individuals to clean the Manila Bay. Technically Manila Bay is really a wonderful site, it has been part of Philippine History as a witness to thousands of very important events.

This is Manila Bay then:

After so many years, Manila Bay can now be called a dump site. More and more people couldn’t care less. They live and throw everything in Manila Bay making it an eyesore to everyone who passes there. I do not know why some people do not care. As early as now we teach our daughter proper disposal and at the tender age of 4 she would already ask why rivers are now black and oceans are now dirty. She is really concerned about the environment.

This is Manila Bay now:

Such a pity, right? We need to do something about it. Waste management should start from us, from our homes. I hope private factories could invest on Waste Recovery System to lessen the chemicals they emit on the oceans.

It is also very important that factories who do manufacturing, production and fabrication perform something like Solvent Recovery and have a Solvent Recovery System, this will help them save money and time by reducing their reliance on virgin solvent purchasing, disposal services and more.
