Make a better place for you and for me.
Bigla akong binatukan ng boredom. Kaya ay naisipan kong magbasa ng newspaper (Philippine Daily Inquirer). Himala nang bumasa ako sa business section, dahil kapag bumuklat ako ng newspaper, laging nalilipad ang ilong ko sa entertainment category.
So, talagang nagbasa ako ng dyaryo. Something about SM with it’s new biodegradable plastic bags. Sa totoo lang, and infairview, natuwa ako sa idea na ito ng SM. Isipin niyo, how many years or centuries pa bago tuluyang ma-disintegrate ang mga plastic. Which is also why, pilit nireremind satin na as much as possible eh i-recycle natin ang mga plastic bags sa kadahilanang mahirap i-dispose ang mga plastic. Kaya naman eh yung Biodegradable plastic bags ng SM eh talagang advantage para sa environment, lalo na sa environmental issue about trash.
“It looks like plastic but it is not plastic. It has zero lead content and zero metal content,” Mayor Reinaldo Bautista Jr. said.
“It’s very safe and it’s biodegradable, and will fully disintegrate in six months or less. It turns into powder and blends with the soil after a few months.”
Oh diba? Bonggang-bongga ang matutulong nito sa environment natin. Lalo na ngayon na super duper laganap na ang global warming. Nakaka-alarma talaga. Kasi naman, malapit na ang summer, pero madalas, malamig dito sa Davao. And yes, isa yan sa mga resulta ng global warming. Kaya kayo, isip na kayo ng mga ways kung paano makakatulong sa environment. Nakaka-takot kaya. Baka matulad tayo sa “Day After Tomorrow”. When nature is the one who causes the difficulty, it will unfortunately be considered as a plague.

Sana lahat ng shops or stores here sa Pinas eh gumamit na ng biodegradable plastic bags. Una kong napansin yung biodegradable or recyclable plastic bag sa Health Options plastic bag. Then when we went grocery shopping sa SM Makati napansin ko din na meron na rin pala sila. Thank God! Sana totoo lang na degradable nga sya.
here are links about the biodegradable plastic bags:
