April 23 at 7:27 AMI went to a swanky polo club in the middle of the city. There were lots of trees and greenery, but access to the club is limited to the rich and well-connected. I hope that there will be more push for green spaces in Metro Manila that are easily made available to the public

April 23 at 1:19 AMA personal activity best about having a zero waste day is when I practice intermittent fasting (food consumption) - usually 16/8 and the longest was 20/4. I encourages mindfulness of my consumption habits, feeling satisfied and accomplished. It saves me money, not just for food but other material expenses, helping me as well be aware of of...

April 23 at 12:59 AMIngredients from artificial or unnatural cleaning products when disposed and left untreated will go to streams and rivers/seas. They can be consumed by plants and animals which may affect them and cause them to degrade or die. Most probably, i need to be aware and check cleaning products that I purchase. Or best is to use readily available...

April 23 at 12:29 AMEdible land and sea snails and clams. Snails and clams from farms or sand streams grow and are raised naturally in these ecosystems.

Snail meat is also a good source of minerals and trace...

April 23 at 12:16 AMThe food that you consume will associate on how you will do composting. The more you understand your food, the more you would know how much you toss as waste or the better you will compost. Luckily, I was raised to value food served, and always eat everything on my plate. And for those that needs to be thrown away like bones, we compost them....

April 22 at 11:21 PMI can believe that is already Day 23 of the EcoChallenge and as we navigate the bustling streets of Manila, it’s crucial to remember the Leave No Trace principle of traveling and camping on durable surfaces. In an urban context, this translates to using established pathways, respecting paved areas, and avoiding shortcuts through plant beds or...

April 22 at 6:22 AMThe moon is beautiful tonight. I thought the building lights were illuminating my usually dark balcony, but I looked up and saw the gorgeous moon. It was terribly hot and humid earlier today, as Manila continues to experience rising temperatures. Even the wind was hot, but I stepped out at around 7pm and felt the evening summer breeze and saw...

April 22 at 6:15 AMStill on the subject of my favorite tawilis fish and Taal Lake--I keep finding myself obsessed with the info and probably extending my supposed 5-min daily learning: The tawilis and Taal Lake snake are two distinct examples of how nature and biodiversity works. Taal Lake was once part of Balayan Bay and filled with salt water. Because of Taal...

April 22 at 6:12 AMOne of my fave fish to eat is the Sardinella tawilis (italicized), or just the tawilis as we Filipinos call it. As internet info suggests, S. tawilis populations are only found in Taal Lake (yes, of the Taal Volcano) in the Batangas province on the island of Luzon in the Philippines. S. tawilis is believed to be one of a few former marine...

April 22 at 4:34 AMNatural or man-made forest parks helps us beat the heat during this summer, this scorching weather in the metro. Plants and trees provide shade and cooling the surrounding area. They improve air quality lowering the impact of motor emissions. They serve as places for relaxation and some educational with placards of tree details. Let us support...
