Is there abatement in Air Pollution in MM? I do not think so!! When is the time to act?

Clean air, act

Rizal Philippines
December 28, 2015

The year is about to end. We see extreme cases of air pollution in Beijing China.  It is so bad that visibility is only a few meters, children have to asked to stay at home (no classes) and factories asked to stop operating to lessen emission.

                           From CNBC - Pollution Cancels more than 220 flights

                           Air Pollution levels in Beijing

  Shall we wait for this to happen in MM.  So far, there is no concrete action being taken. (What with open acceptance of jeep and tricycle that pollute the street air, or the coal fired power plants.  Mura kasi nasa P3/kwh)

The pea soup air at MM two years ago is still the same.

However Air Quality Index Monitoring shows air quality is OK

Does a red sunset indicate presence of air pollution?

Clean air, act

Look at this sunset.   Some say that a reddish hue of sunset means that there is either rain clouds at the horizon or pollution.  Which one  is right?

                           That is BGC over there

Air pollution kills

Angono, Rizal  PHL  | November 2, 2013

We observed tricycles and jeepneys polluting the air early this morning near the Holy Gardens  Memorial Park, Angono.  Who else would?

                                        This tricycle is the top polluter for the whole morning

                                  Motorbike does its share of destroying the air we breathe

                                   The air is now greyish

                                        The jeepney contributes

                     The idling engines as the traffic slowed down contributed a lot of fumes

Yesterday was one of the hottest day, yet see the smog today?

Rizal PHL  |  April 2l, 2013

PAG - ASA reported that yesterday was one of the hottest day in the PHL:  37 degrees Celsius in Cabanatuan and 35.6 in Metro Manila.  Yet this morning, this photo monitoring showed that the hot day did not vaporize the pollutants (too much and too many to vaporize?)

Shot from San Carlos Hts., Binangonan Rizal.  This is a view of Tayuman, and Angono, Rizal

 The sun was shining brightly, why the haze?

 Air pollution is not just at MM;  it is here in our town

 The tree leaves are green, but the Angono air is smoke filled.

The road leading to Pag asa, Binangonan, Rizal;  you can not see beyond 500 meters
