Pollution from Fireworks last Night January 1, 2014

Clean air, act

 Philippines   | January 1, 2013



New year is just 12 years old.  We just stayed in the house.

We thought that New Year's celebration would have less fireworks.  Yes there was less firework early in the evening but when the clock struck 12, hell broke loose again.

It may not be as  extravagant as say New Year's celebration three 3 years ago.  But again, the air sucked of pollution.  Maybe there were less injuries but nevertheless we love to burn money and pyrotechnics on New Year's day to drive away the demons, but not the bad habits in us.  (like polluting the air with our ill maintained vehicles, smoking, burning bonfires)

Happy and Prosperous New Year everyone.


 Firework remains

Not so clear skies.  Why there was no war zone scene last night and this morning (which was the case 3 years ago)  the skies nevertheless looked affected. Visibility of MM was very poor, even at about 10 am.when the sun was all ready up and hot.





Skies are cloudy all day

                                    BGC is hardly visible


                                     Can you make out something in the horizon



                               Visibility inland, even at SCH is poor
