The garbage disposal here in barangay Pasonanca is all over the
place. What i mean about that is, it is everywhere from street’s to the corner of the walls. When you walk around the barangay you can see there is a lot of trashes. In my street at Fernandez drive the trashes are not thrown properly some of my neighbors are also not disposing it properly. There is noting wrong with throwing it in front of their houses like we do but we have a lot of street dogs in our barangay when we put our garbages properly the dogs just go and destroy it. Street dogs is a big problem also in our barangay because street dogs often are the one who is destroying the garbage sucks and reason it gets really messy sometimes. People must know that even if we throw it properly, but if it is not in the proper place the garbage truck will just pass by and the trashes is left for the dogs to destroy. There is a proper place to throw our garbage so the garbage truck would able to pass it. Every morning at 6 am the garbage truck will pass our street and the garbage must be in the proper place just outside of the Fernandez drive so they would able to see it. The problem is the people, there are not responsible enough to throw it at 6 am they say it’s too early so the trashes are just ended up all over the place. Improper waste is common in every barangay and Pasonanca is no different. And I may have an effect on people that is leaving here, it can cause a lot of problems because of the misbehaviour of the people towards waste management. Some people are careless to the environment by just in throwing their garbage everywhere they want. They do not think of the possible results of their actions on the environmental as especially on health. The soil, water, and air pollution can all be a result of improper waste disposal. Examples of improper waste disposal includes littering, hazardous waste that is dumped into the ground, also the recycling trashes that can be recycled. This is what I observed is our barangay they do not practice the proper way to put the plastics. Disposing of waste has huge environmental impacts and can cause serious problems. Proper garbage disposal is important to ensure everyone’s safety from possible health hazards. People will suffer in the next years if our barangay won’t do anything about this problems. Some causes of improper waste disposal in our barangay is people are irresponsible of their trashes they just leave it anywhere not thinking of the consequence it may cause to the people or the community. People are not following the correct rules of proper waste disposal. They must be rules to follow such as throwing it outside so the garbage truck will be able to pass it instead of leaving it anywhere. They must tie it properly because of the dogs keeps on trying to find food. People are burning plastic instead of keeping it recyclable it. Also I observed that because of the improper waste disposal that is happening in our barangay the soil contamination does not only affect plant growth, it is also unhealthy to humans and animals feeding on those plants. Barangay Pasonanca is loved by the people because of the foods, plenty of the restaurant is located at Pasonanca from fancy restaurant to simple vendors that are selling barbeques you can really see that there is a s of foods to eat. Some of the vendors that are selling barbeques just don’t clean their places properly leaving the barbeque sticks on the ground and the sauce makes it disgusting and smelly. How can we solve this? Barangay Pasonanca can start recycling waste in another option. Buy products that are good for the environment instead of purchasing those plastic pop bottles, they can find a way that are more environmentally friendly. Some of this include bottles openers, calendars, coloring books, and much more. Of course there is a lot that we can do to fix the problems, that problem itself is the people that are irresponsible with their trashes all of this can be avoided if we people are such greedy. And it is very sad to know that lives have been sacrificed because of this calamities that have come. And people may not realize this but their contributing to the man made calamities.
