II. BRIEF CONTEXT/PERSPECTIVE OF THE ACTIVITY

We used to consume clean, refined water, breathe pure air, and be surrounded by
vegetation. Because most individuals today do not care about their surroundings,
there is a significant difference in our environment. We both understand that we
have to deal with a number of environmental issues, including waste, climate
change, and disaster. It could originate on land, in the water, or both. Downs,
Acevedo, A. R. (2019, February 28) the waste humans generate waste has been
detrimental to our environment for quite some time now. Humans are generating
too much trash and cannot deal with it in a sustainable way. Waste that is not
biodegradable and cannot be properly be recycled is filling our oceans and
landfills. Let’s take plastic waste as an example. A recent study found that of the
6.3 billion metric tons of plastic waste that has been produced, only 9% of the
plastic waste had been recycled. All together, the amount of waste generated
affects the environment in multiple ways: its contribution to the worsening climate
crisis, its negative impact on wildlife and the natural environment, and its detriment
to our very own public health.

Climate Change

The way we dispose of waste is troubling. What is worse, in this decade alone, it
would seem that waste disposal has become more careless. What we have failed
to do is to put into action the ideas we believe will help us mitigate or adapt to
climate change. Case in point: the trash that is dumped in landfills releases
methane gas. Taken one step further open landfills were found to represent 91% of
all landfill methane emissions. The burning of large, open piles of trash in various
parts of the world emits dangerous levels of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that
is heating up our planet. Researchers have calculated that approximately 40% of
the world’s trash is burned in this fashion, posing large-scale risks to both our
atmosphere and the people that live near these burning sites.
Wildlife

Ecosystems vary widely from location to location. However, one of the most outsize
consequences of our global waste problem manifests itself in relation to our marine
life and waterways. Simply put, it affects the people who depend on the ocean for
their livelihoods. They cannot distinguish between what is or isn’t food. They
consume the trash, which results in death because the aquatic animal could not
process it. This affects fish, seals, turtles, whales, and many other aquatic animals,
as scientists have also found many plastic fragments in over a thousand species.
Due to ingestion of trash or plastics, starvation is usually the next step because
some species do not have high acidic levels in their stomach to break down the
object that they ingested. There are some animals that do but plastic fragments
have been known to be able to last 100 years. When it comes to biodiversity, our
waste problem is severely plaguing the health of the world’s species.

Public Health

Human health is at risk through our inaction. We keep producing large amounts of
trash, we do not dispose of it correctly, and in the end that will be our downfall as it
is for the environment and wildlife in the ecosystems we all share. We cannot
prevent or promote longevity with how we treat our Earth. The more emissions that
we produce due to how much trash we generate, affects us long term. One can
develop diseases such as asthma, birth defects, cancer, cardiovascular disease,
childhood cancer, COPD, infectious diseases, low birth weight, and preterm
delivery. Bacteria, vermin and insects can also be added to the problem that trash
causes.

If some environmental toxins are not properly disposed of, they have the potential
to spread dangerous illnesses and diseases. By properly managing garbage and
recycling, many of these toxic compounds are removed from the environment,
making it safer for both people and animals. Garbage all over the area not only
pollutes the air and degrades the environment's sanitation, but it also releases
unpleasant odors and provides a breeding ground for mosquitoes, cockroaches,
and other insects. An unclean environment can lead to a number of illnesses. I feel
satisfied, productive, happy, and contented after using the 3R’s reduce, reuse and
recycle. I can prevent some air and water pollution from waste disposal; conserving
the materials for reusing in making new products; reducing demand in mining and
extraction; and reducing the amount of energy used to make new products.

First, not only is the said activity beneficial, I am also confident that I am capable of
doing the job without errors. Furthermore, this project coincides with my neat
personality. I believe that with the help of a little creativity, waste segregation is fun
and would make use of my imagination as leeway for resourcefulness. As an
organization I will commit to keep the surroundings clean by ensuring the waste or
trash segregates properly using 3R’s (reduce, reuse, and recycle). I Implement this
project have benefits to our world. This would also serve as example for other
communities to create same activities in order to keep the environment clean and
natural by disposing the waste with the help of people.

III. BRIEF CONTEXT/PROJECT BENEFICIARIES

 To reduce environmental problem such as flooding, air pollution and waste

disposal.

 Those people who live in squatter area are the beneficiaries.

 My cousin and my best friend are my partners in this project.

IV. OBJECTIVES

1) Will utilized in small areas such as purok communities first then start to
work up to bigger areas like barangay eventually to citywide
implications.

2) To prevent any kinds of serious illness and diseases for the reason of
the environment problem of throwing garbage everywhere or not
disposing properly.

3) Teaching the people on how to segregate properly using 3R’s (Reduce,

Reuse, and Recycle).
