H2O Salamander Crowd Source Funding Campaign

The planet that we live in is very much at risk from global warming or the El Nino phenomenon. And we all know that after El Nino, extreme weather phenomenon takes place and that is what we call La Nina. After experiencing severe drought, the country is now susceptible to flooding due to heavy rains.

In Metro Manila alone, we sometimes can’t cope up with the flood. Have you heard or experienced the flood caused by typhoon Ondoy? Those areas in Metro Manila that didn’t usually encounter floods, did experienced that for the first time. Many families were displaced because the flood damaged their homes, and for some, they also lost some family members. 

So what does it mean? 

It simply mean that we haven’t been taking great care of nature. We haven’t been planting trees, but instead, we cut down trees and flatten mountains and hills to give way to urbanization, which in turn becomes harmful.

Because of the effects of Ondoy especially in Metro Manila,the local government has been busy building flood mitigating infrastructures like improved and sufficient drainage systems and other flood control projects. In the provinces, their own local governments are also doing precautionary measures that gives assurance of safety for its community. But the question is, is that enough since the typhoons has been bringing in more rains and winds as compared to the typhoons decades ago. This must be because Mother Nature is giving us a stern warning that we should do something about the environment.
