When you are clean and everyone wants you... pero hindi ganoon ka-simple magpalit para sa'yo.

The trend is real: the world is shifting to renewable energy that is very environmentally friendly and will still keep our lights on at the same time. Solar panels are becoming cheaper and cheaper by the day. Wind is free. 0 emissions for the same services that conventional energy offers.

Pero bakit hindi basta basta magawa sa Pilipinas?

Ang pollution ay isa sa mga pangunahing dahilan ng lumalalang kalagayan ng mga tao, kalikasan, at ng buong mundo. This includes the dirty air that we breathe, the contaminated water that we drink, the plastics that kill fishes and clog our waterways, and the barren lands that lead to earthquakes and biodiversity loss.

Out of all possible solutions that include our participation as end-users, iisang aspeto ang makakapagdulot ng malaking pagbabago kung ito ay matutugunan: producer responsibility. Bakit producer responsibility ang sagot? Paano mapapanagot ang mga producer sa pagsasaayos ng kanilang mga proseso?

Sa panahon ngayon, hindi na sapat sa isang producer ang makapagproduce ng naaayon sa market demand. Kung dati ang progress ay nasusukat sa laki ng capital na nalilikom, ngayon ito na'y nasusukat sa pagbabalanse ng profit generation at environmental sustainability.

A profitable industry, or a progressive nation, is one that meets the demands of the present generation without compromising the demands of those in the future.

Kahit anong clean-up drive ay wala nang maidudulot na magandang epekto sa kalikasan.

We have reached a point where vast development and commercialization have standardized processes na talagang iisa lang ang panig: Profit > Planet.

Ang lahat ng mga aktibidad across industries na kung pinagsama-sama ay magiging irreversible na within 10 years kung hindi aagapan hangga't sa puno't dulo. Milyun-milyon na ang namatay na mga tao dulot ng air pollution at maduming drinking water, at ang kalikasan ay lubos na ring na-contaminate at na-baog.

Ano nga ba ang sanhi ng mga ito? Find out in this episode.

Thousands of families and children survive on the pennies they earn from waste picking and junk trading every day. It gives them food and water that to this day are still insufficient to fill their stomachs because despite discreetly doing more good in the community, waste picking remains an undignified profession.

How can we change this narrative and formalize this informal sector in waste management?

Based on a 2015 study, the Philippines is one of the top 5 countries contributing to marine plastic wastes. Another study states that, without action, we risk having more plastic than fishes in the ocean by 2050. 

To face this dilemma, we are in search for novel solutions! And in this episode, we explore UNDP's goal in addressing marine litter and achieving circularity through EPPIC, the Ending Plastic Pollution Innovation Challenge 2021!

Much like other social, environmental, and economic issues, the programs and policies set to completely manage waste generation and collection lack funding and thorough implementation. There is also a growing mentality where people believe that controlled dumpsites are necessary but just not in their neighborhood.

There is an informal waste ecosystem that could augment our efforts in waste collection. It has been there even before R.A. 9003 or the Solid Waste Management was put into law. But what can we do to make it both systematic and economically beneficial for the players involved?
