MULTIFACTORIAL PHENOMENA
A. POLITICAL FACTORS
B. SOCIO-CULTURAL FACTORS
D. ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS’
The climate in Inosluban is akin to that of the city and nearby towns and
provinces, falling under the first type of tropical climate with two distinct seasons
throughout the year. Typhoons are common during the rainy season,
occasionally causing damage to agricultural products and crops. This results in
environmental challenges for the community.
As per the barangay authorities, every member of the community has access to
safe and drinkable water, with the water source being the Metro Lipa Water
District. Initially, when we first arrived, there were occasional issues with water
pressure, particularly on weekends, but these concerns were addressed over
time. Regarding the electricity supply in Barangay Inosluban, it is provided by
BATELEC II, and it has proven to be reliable, even in the face of challenges such
as strong typhoons.
3. Waste Disposal
Every week, a garbage collector visits the barangay to ensure that every
household's waste is collected, promoting cleanliness and preventing potential
health issues for residents. The barangay adheres to strict waste disposal
practices, but there is a common issue where residents often neglect to
segregate their garbage properly. Segregation involves sorting waste types to
facilitate recycling and appropriate disposal. During our interview with a councilor,
it was mentioned that there are occasional delays in garbage collection due to
various reasons. One factor is the inoperable garbage truck, while another
challenge stems from a conflict regarding the location of the main garbage
disposal site. These issues contribute to delays in garbage collection, potentially
resulting in the accumulation of waste within the community.

individuals. These bites often come from animals like dogs, cats, and wildlife such as
bats or snakes, and they can bring a risk of infection due to the germs in the animal's
mouth or on its skin. s. If not treated properly, complications like cellulitis, abscesses,
and systemic infections can occur. There's also a serious risk of rabies,requiring quick
medical attention and preventive measures. Allergic reactions, emotional impacts like
fear or anxiety, and the strain on healthcare systems are also important parts of the
problems caused by animal bites. Preventing these issues involves proper wound care,
responsible pet ownership, and public health efforts.
