Some scientists already believe that even if we were to reduce carbon emissions to zero, we will not be able to stop climate change, because of how long we have chosen to do nothing about this issue, the event has become inevitable. All we can do now is to prepare for the disaster. This is why pooling resources, reducing population and desaturating low-lying areas (such as Manila, which is dangerous low in altitude and hence will be one of the first to be affected by climate change).
We are lucky in the sense that our country is not as low lying as places like Bangladesh, but also unlucky in the sense that a large portion of our population is concentrated in an area (Manila) that is nearly as bad as Bangladesh in terms of density and altitude. If the population is not effectively dispersed from that region, we can expect worse from future disasters. If a temporary flooding can cause so much chaos and carnage, imagine what a permanent flooding of the area will do to people. Best to begin the dispersion now rather than wait for the worse to come. We are paying now for overinvesting infrastructure in one area at the expense of the provinces. |

New forest helps save villages - INQUIRER.net, Philippine News for Filipinos
New forest helps save villages By Tessa Salazar Philippine Daily Inquirer First Posted 03:36:00 11/02/2009 MANILA, Philippines—Over the past month, typhoons “Pepeng” and “Ramil” lashed northern Luzon, but residents of a town in Cagayan province are thanking their young trees for sparing their place from killer landslides that buried villages in other mountainside communities. A 2,500-hectare reforestation project in Peñablanca town has absorbed excess rainwater and trapped soil sediments, preventing soil runoff and erosion, the prerequisites to landslides, according to the local government and conservationists. A once barren mountainside is now dotted with more than 18,000 mango trees and 680,000 other indigenous forest trees. Though almost all of the trees are still barely above seven feet high, conservationists say they are already big and numerous enough to help hold rain water and trap sediments. |

2012 is a great movie about the Mayan calendar and how its linked to the global climate change. I'm not saying its true and i don't believe in it either. Its your choice, your belief, your thought.
