         <description><![CDATA[<h1>The Tale of Two Milkfish at Matukad Island - Caramoan&nbsp;</h1><div><br>This enchanted bangus can be found in the Matukad Lagoon on Caramoan's Matukad Island. This secluded lagoon can only be reached and seen by climbing the island's rocks. The tale behind this mysterious fish, according to locals of Caramoan, began a long time ago, when a tidal surge came and flooded surrounding rocks on Matukad Island with water. This turned into a lagoon, where two "bangus" (milkfish) of unknown origin dwelt.<br><br>A fisherman discovered the lagoon at the time and witnessed the two milkfishes. He caught one to take home to his family. After eating the fish, the entire family died, and no one on Caramoan dared to capture the milkfish again after that. <br><br>Now, there are two milkfishes once again. According to the locals, the new milkfish strangely emerged, first as a fingerling but now about the same size as the other. According to the locals, they are the lagoon's guardians, and they rarely show themselves to humans, therefore seeing them is a fortunate or blessed experience.<br><br><br><strong>Photo Source: </strong>https://www.tripadvisor.com/LocationPhotoDirectLink-g1563542-d2043583-i197791569-Matukad_Island-Caramoan_Camarines_Sur_Province_Bicol_Region_Luzon.html<br><br><strong>References:&nbsp; <br></strong>B.

         <description><![CDATA[<div>I can still recall how bad the smell of Balatas, the mountain garbage dumpsite, was while I was in high school because it was close to our school. We used to make jokes about it being "our vitamins" and how it made us smarter every day. It smells horrible, especially when it rains. This, I feel, is due to residents' poor garbage management. Only a few people obey the rules regarding garbage segregation, collection, and recycling. This is an issue that needs to be addressed because it not only affects the surrounding community with its odor.&nbsp; Open dumping causes issues with insects, leachate, and other contaminants. Air pollution from trash combustion and anaerobic decomposition of organic materials. In short, it pollutes the environment, and in the future, due to the garbage piling, there will be no more available space where we may temporarily store our garbage. By addressing this issue and implementing effective waste management, the air, soil, and water quality will improve.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>In Naga City, Camarines Sur, there are still children and beggars who beg for food or money from people passing by the street, as well as people who live in the squatters area. There are a lot of senior citizens asking for food and spare change, especially in the People's Market. It saddens me that there are still those who live in poverty. I believe that this must be addressed because it not only means that a family is experiencing financial difficulties, but it also has an impact on their well-being because they are unable to eat proper meals, and because we are in the midst of a pandemic, their health is put at risk. Finally, they are being discriminated against by narrow-minded people.&nbsp;</div>]]></description>

         <title>SUSTAINABLE SANITARY LANDFILL TO ENERGY SYSTEM (SSLTES)</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The City of Naga requested GIZ Nexus to support a study by SSLTES expert on Naga Solid Waste Management specifically on the closure of the Balatas dumpsite and the preparation of the new San Isidro sanitary landfill and implementation of suitable technology – in response to the issue of the Balatas dump site approaching its absorption capacity, odor affecting the neighborhoods, ground and water contamination from leachate, and also the new San Isidro site preparation and implementation. The study suggests that the shape of the rubbish dropped on the site be changed. HDPE lining and suction pipes will be installed, a Leachate collection and treatment system will be constructed, and the landfill gas (LFG) collected might be delivered to neighboring industrial plants for heat/boiler or as cooking gas for local villages. The LFG can be converted into compressed biogas (CBG) for automobiles and used as a fuel source to generate electricity. The study suggests installing a proper HDPE lining at the bottom of the landfill cells, as well as a proper leachate drainage and treatment system, in the design of the new San Isidro sanitary landfill. The next step is to extend the size of the San Isidro dump to 24 Ha in order to create a sustainable landfill using SSLTES technology. If the city is unable to obtain such land, various alternative technologies to the SSLTES should be considered. LFG collecting systems should be established; LFG can be utilized as heat/boiler fuel for surrounding industrial plants, or as cooking gas for nearby communities; it can also be converted into compressed biogas (CBG) for cars, as well as used as fuel to generate power. Collection of LFGs<br><br>A ten-year solid waste management plan was also established in Camarines Sur, with the plan focusing on the execution of the three Rs while determining the number of landfills and transformation capacity for solid wastes that cannot be reused, reduced, or recycled.<br><br>References: https://www.unescap.org/sites/default/files/Report_PH_Naga_SolidWaste_Prayuth_2015.pdf<br>https://www.unescap.org/sites/default/files/CaseStudy_PH_Naga_SolidWasteManagement_2017.pdf<br>https://camarinessur.gov.ph/sdg/12</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>According to the SDG of Camarines Sur, there are numerous programs that have been implemented in the province to address poverty. One is the "Food-for-Work and Cash-for-Work Program", which has helped people through livelihood programs in connection with different environmental protection projects. Other projects include "Housing Projects"; "The Provision of Padyak (manual tricycles) and Sewing Machines"; "A Microfinance Project"; "A Community-Based Agricultural Modernization Program"; and many more projects.&nbsp; However, despite the programs in place, many families still suffer from poverty. Thus, everyone should support one another, beginning with selecting the best officials for the right positions in order for them to be able to create substantial improvements in the community with the help of the citizens.<br><br><strong>Reference: </strong>https://camarinessur.gov.ph/sdg/1/community-based-agricultural-modernization-program</div>]]></description>
