CHAPTER 1
Introduction
As Torres said, Soil, water and air pollution can all be a result of
improper waste disposal and occurs when either of them becomes contaminated
with hazardous materials. (2019)
He added that, apart from this improper waste disposal can also
have adverse health effects on humans as over the years it has been
responsible for causing several diseases and in some cases even death. So all
of must have responsibility, obligations and awareness denominate of garbage
disposal to anticipate any calamity that may come. Decide the things that must
be reduced, keep those can be reuse, and put aside those can be recycled.
this fast. Furtheremore, the changing economic trends and rapid urbanization
complicate solid waste management (SWM) in developing countries.
Consequently, solid wate is not only increasing in composition but also changing
in quantity from few kilograms to tonnage proportions recently (Bartone, 1993)
It is a fact that the rapid urbanization of cities in the country has provided
ample opportunities for growth. Metro Manila, which is home to more than 12
million people, is certainly facing a huge environmental issue as the other
megacities in Asia, given the difficulties that it has been facing in terms of waste
collection and disposal. The Philippines produces some 35,000 tons of municipal
solid waste daily. It is a fact that the rapid urbanization of cities in the country has
provided ample opportunities for growth. The other side of the same coin
however bares a grim reality that there are consequences to having scores of
rural dwellers migrating to cities. In general, this rapid urbanization happening in
many cities globally has had certain repercussions such as the lack of jobs,
inadequate infrastructure, and even waste management issues. Unsurprisingly,
the Philippines generates more solid waste as population increases, living
standards are enhanced, and urban and rural areas are being developed.
Theoretical Framework
share the idea of closed loops. Some of the most relevant theoretical influences
are cradle-to-cradle (McDonough and Braungart, 2002), laws of ecology
(Commoner, 1971), looped and performance economy (Stahel, 2010),
regenerative design (Lyle, 1994), industrial ecology (Graedel and Allenby, 1995),
biomimicry (Benyus, 2002), and the blue economy (Pauli, 2010).
extent that the two refer to the same valued outcome state of being (evaluative
disposition). The theory stipulates that the intention of acting has a direct effect
on behaviour, and that it can be predicted by attitudes. These attitudes are
shaped by subjective norms and beliefs, and situational factors influence these
variables’ relative importance. Reasoned Action Theory accounts for times when
people have good intentions, but translating intentions into behavior is thwarted
due to lack in confidence or the feeling of lack of control over the behavior.

1. What are the lived experiences of the residence in Brgy. Niugan (Ibaba)
Resident of Niugan. This study will benefit them the most. This will
allow them to have the right practices in waste segregation.
Purok 1 and Purok 2 in Barangay Niugan and how can it affect the resident's way of
living. Residents in Purok 1 and Purok 2 found that waste segregation in their area is
an issue and through this study, it will give them right practices to segregate their
waste properly. Moreover, this study directly involves the residents of Purok 1 and
Purok 2 in Barangay Niugan and only limited for those resident with ages range 30-
