Hmmm...22+ million ang populasyon ng metro manila. Kung meron silang cleaning day, dapat tayo may cleaning holiday kung saan 2 days nonstop ang paglinis ng metro manila.

Pag ginawa yan, baka sparking clean ang buong metro manila at baka bumubula ang buong stretch ng pasig river sa dami ng sabon na ginamit para iskobahin ang EDSA at ang mga roads! But...imagine a super clean metro manila! pang world record!

Uy huwag mong lahatin. Umikot ka sa Pilipinas, marami pa namang provinces na saksakan ng linis. I'll name some of the cleanest places I have been to (in no particular order):

1. Palawan
2. Ilocos Provinces
3. Bohol
4. Batanes
5. Camiguin
6. Bukidnon
7. Bataan
etc etc

Wag ka namang masyadong nega.

Onga naman, the people can never go wrong. Lahat ay kasalanan ng government. Kapag wala ka nang makain, sisihin mo ang pamahalaan. Kapag hindi nagbabago ang sistema, sisihin mo ulit ang pamahalaan. Walang kinalaman ang taong-bayan sa mga problema ng bansa.

Hindi ba 11+ million lang? Not sure, though. Anyway, marami akong nakikitang ganito na sentiments, na, "sana ganito ganyan," "dapat ganito ganyan," "imagine ganito ganyan," etc. Kung 'yung bawat isang taong 'yun ay nagpupulot ng kahit isang pirasong basura sa kalye na hindi naman sa kanila sa bawat araw para itapon sa tamang tapunan, siguro hindi na 'yung magiging mga sana, dapat, at imagine

Nag simula na ako at ng tatlo kong kapitbahay. Kaya sa buong street namin, kaming apat lang ang merong napakalinis na bakuran ! at sa paglilinis namin twing umaga, parang may nahahawa pang isang kapitbahay sa amin !

Sa sobrang linis ng harap namin, nahihiya ng mag park ng kotse sa harap namin un isang talyer dito. Bago mag park, nagpapaalam pa sa akin

Try nyo rin ito- air cleaning paint -

How It Works?
Boysen KNOxOUT

Boysen KNOxOUT contains CristalActiv photocatalytic technology, which is ultrafine titanium dioxide, (TiO2) that absorbs energy from light and transforms ordinary water vapor into hydroxyl and peroxyl radicals at the surface of the TiO2.

These free radicals, created in billionths of a second, become the reactive species that break down noxious air pollutants such as nitrogen oxides (NOx) that come into contact with the surface. Harmful NOx gas is converted to nitric acid that is rapidly neutralized by alkaline calcium carbonate particle in the paint, producing harmless quantities of calcium nitrate and negligible amounts of carbon dioxide and water. Calcium nitrate is water soluble and easily removed from the film, leaving a fresh surface ready to engage the next pollutant to come into contact with the film. Other pollutants such as sulfur oxides (SOx) are broken down in a similar process.

A great advantage of this photocatalytic reaction is that the ultrafine TiO2 is not consumed in the reaction, but is merely a catalyst that continuously generates free radicals as long as there is sufficient light, air and moisture. Additionally, this reaction gives the paint self-cleaning and anti-bacterial properties.

http://www.knoxoutpaints.com/proofit...?item_id=15856

Available na ito sa Manila. Nakita ko sa TV kagabi, apparently they were able to cut down the air pollution in trial areas.

imo di na kailangan gumastos para sa ganyan. ang sagot lang jan ay panatilihin ang kalinisan. tulad halimbawa sa baha. alam naman natin na isang factor yung basurang nagbabara sa mga kanal at daluyan ng tubig kaya logical lang na ang solusyon ay wag magtapon ng basura kasi eventually sa mga kanal at estero din ang bagsak nyan. maraming paraan na di nangangailangan ng pera... konting effort lang sa part ng bawat isa. di kailangang moderno at mamahalin... ang importante ay malinis at maayos.

well if it works. it's good. otherwise, they should really limit the number of buses and jeepneys- andaming pasaway a polluter. But I still like the idea of the paint. It is very proactive.

Pinturahan mo ng air pollution reducing paint ang buong stretch ng MRT-3 line sa EDSA. Mababawasan kaya ang air pollution ng EDSA?

Dapat ilipat sa ibang city sa Visayas or Mindanao ang capitolyo ng bansa para ma decongest ang Manila at mabawasan
ang population and pollution,

One huge problem: Lahat ng tao, kahit sa ibang bansa, ang alam na kapitolyo ng pilipinas ay ang Manila. Not only that, Manila is the established capitol since the SPANISH ERA.

It does not matter and it is a small matter compared to the benefits if the Capital of the country is transferred to either in Visayan region or Mindanao.

Beside their wishes to have their own autonomous region or their wish for a Federal state will be tempered if the Capitol of the country is right there in their city.
