KEY INFO: Local government workers gather dead fish killed by plastic pollution for disposal after being washed overnight along the coastline at the reclaimed 'Freedom Island' in suburban Las Pinas city South Manila, Philippines.

This information is relevant to our topic as it gives information about the effects of waste pollution on marine life. The waste pollution also shows the lack of proper waste disposal and cleaning. Hence, this leads us to the importance of clean-up drives as massive wastes cannot be just cleaned by few individuals all the time.

AUTHOR: Auren Sung

DATE: March 5, 2022

KEY INFO: Plastic links to poverty in a way where because of the global waste trade, all the trash and waste from developed countries then on proceed or is given to the not so developed or underdeveloped countries resulting in developed countries not having a pollution problem and underdeveloped countries having that problem because they don't have the means to recycle or dispose of the trash properly.

This is important to our research topic even if it does not have a Mindanao context because knowing that our country is a 3rd world country and is still trying to develop, there are other places in Mindanao that also aren't so developed, unlike Davao, so having this information we can expound more on how underdeveloped places in Mindanao also needs to be reviewed by a waste specialist. ]]> 2023-02-09 05:42:39 UTC https://padlet.com/jadmutan/Navarro6_SDG14/wish/2474520281 THINK ON THESE: Ending plastic pollution fnlapined https://padlet.com/jadmutan/Navarro6_SDG14/wish/2474527597 URL: https://edgedavao.net/vantage-points/2021/10/26/think-on-these-ending-plastic-pollution/

KEY INFO: In the Philippines, the so-called "sachet economy" has contributed to the proliferation of single-use plastics. According to one research group, the Philippines discards 60 billion plastic sachets each year. That's about one sachet per person per day on a per capita basis.

This article is relevant because it also states how Filipinos generate 35,800 tons of garbage and that this has been an ongoing problem, the number of garbage we generate could have multiplied over the years and we need to put a stop to it. ]]> 2023-02-09 05:56:35 UTC https://padlet.com/jadmutan/Navarro6_SDG14/wish/2474527597 Opening Remarks by Agata E.

AUTHOR: Agata E. Pawlowska

DATA: April 4, 2019

KEY INFO: Agata talks about how the Philippines is thought to have the third-highest global rate of improperly managed plastic garbage. Among the water bodies around the world that require repair the most quickly are the Pasig River and Manila Bay. Among the many effects of marine plastic pollution are those on the economy, water safety, food security, and environment, to name a few. Take the Metro Manila area as an example, which is badly affected by rising flooding hazards as a result of waste being dumped in drainage and rivers and becoming clogged, we should take this example as a perspective in which we don’t want this happening in mindanao thus this talk can provide us realizations where we can find ways to keep this from happening in mindanao.]]> 2023-02-09 06:27:19 UTC https://padlet.com/jadmutan/Navarro6_SDG14/wish/2474549382 Short documentary "First LDI waste cleanup action in the Philippines" jadmutan https://padlet.com/jadmutan/Navarro6_SDG14/wish/2474852810 URL: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYVHO9GZkYw

TITLE: Short documentary "First LDI waste cleanup action in the Philippines"

AUTHOR: World Cleanup Day

DATE: September 5, 2016

KEY INFO: The first ever "Let's Do It! Philippines" was conducted to mobilize citizens to clean up the country. Its objective was to get people more involved in cleaning the environment. According to them, this program is creative and long-term. The process started with gathering volunteers, giving seminars then starting the clean-up drive. Around 28,000 people participated in this campaign at Negros Occidental. As waste is not something that can be completely removed and is forever coming, the aim of this was to instill a perspective in the participants on the importance of managing waste.

Although it has no direct relation to Mindanao, it is still helpful in the research topic as it discusses the importance of clean-up drives and their impact on waste pollution. The documentary also showed us the problem of waste pollution, giving us a sense of urgency in solving this problem. All of these are helpful in our research topic.]]> 2023-02-09 11:22:07 UTC https://padlet.com/jadmutan/Navarro6_SDG14/wish/2474852810 UN, European Union and Smurfs team up for global beach clean-up campaign in support of Sustainable Development Goals https://padlet.com/jadmutan/Navarro6_SDG14/wish/2475581742 URL: https://youtu.be/-ShSci52lj8

TITLE: The Face of Plastic

AUTHOR: Stanley Guevarra

DATE: July 18 2022

KEY INFO: Because there will likely always be a demand for and the supply of plastic, businesses and individuals will soon start recycling plastic. Despite the concept's appeal, it fails to live up to expectations. Consequently, only 9% of countries in the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). Globally, plastic is recycled; the remaining amount is burned, dumped in landfills, or unsuitably disposed of. Just 2% of this 9% gets recycled effectively, whereas the remainder is downcycled before becoming plastic waste. The Philippine Islands are the
The world's third-largest producer of plastic waste, producing approximately 0.75 metric tons of plastic waste enter the ocean annually.

This is connected to our research topic because this is data wherein how much plastic actually gets recycled effectively despite the fact that nowadays, most plastics are recyclable. Since our topic discusses all how the irregularity of clean up drives threaten marine life, this data could be basis upon how much plastic goes into our ocean per year, how much waste affects our sea creatures each coming year, and how much of the trash we make gets recycled before it ends up in our oceans.

KEY INFO: The book describes how plastic rubbish is now present on every continent. It brilliantly visualizes this challenge for readers via eye-catching photos and visuals. However, it also conveys a message of hope since, despite the problem's enormous scope, people should be committed to putting a stop to it. Plastic Soup features a wide range of initiatives to reduce plastic waste and increase awareness, including plastic-free grocery stores, cutting-edge legislation, and art exhibitions.

This book is related to our research topic in the sense that it shows that plastic garbage is present and a threat nowadays to our marine life and bodies of water. The pollution could be a by-product of the irregular and inconsistent conduction of coastal clean-up drives and the like. ]]> 2023-02-10 13:11:09 UTC https://padlet.com/jadmutan/Navarro6_SDG14/wish/2476388976 TOXIC EVOLUTION, 2011 https://padlet.com/jadmutan/Navarro6_SDG14/wish/2476426907 URL: https://www.solerarpa.com/evolucion-toxica/

Even though these visual arts are not Mindanao based, they are still relevant to our topic because water pollution is also prevalent in Mindanao. Through these visual arts, people can reflect and become more aware of the harsh consequences of water pollution, and its effects on humanity and the environment.
