Measure of pollution; how are your nostrils?

Air pollution kills

Rizal PHL   |  June 28, 2013

I biked up to Highway 2000 in Taytay Rizal and I checked my nostrils with cotton buds and again the results are fairly consistent with what we saw before:   plenty of dark soot.  Is there pollution in MM or none?

What is the cause of persistent coughing and itchy throat?

Air pollution kills

Rizal PHL  |   June 27, 2013

My spouse is complaining of itchy throat and persistent coughing.  I said the cause could be the pollution from the tricycles and jeepneys passing by.  Air used to be clean at Morong where she currently works.  Morong  is populated by several thousand tricycles and maybe a good third of them are spewing pollutants.

Air pollution kills

Laguna, June 23, 2013

As I biked towards Los Banos, I followed a crosswind which was relatively new. It was smoke beclching.  My estimate is that l out of 2 vehicles here are smoke belching. This is going to be a great problem.

The photo was taken in Pagsanjan Laguna



This is a difficult shot to take;   I was riding and taking photo at the same time
