With these being implemented, the barangay still has a present concern about
solid waste management. The segregation, somehow, is not fully implemented, not by
the barangay officials, but by the inhabitants thereof. The main problem of segregation
is the increasing use of plastic materials and plastic waste disposals of the inhabitants.
There are inhabitants that are not reached out properly by the personnel of the BLGU
assigned to collect the solid wastes. Which is a huge problem not just in the barangay,
that from 2022-2025 an accumulated 62,000 Tons of solid wastes will came from
Agusan del Sur, particularly from the municipality of San Francisco. 2022 with 15,
087.83 Tons, 2023 with 15, 312.63 Tons, 2024 with 15, 540.79 Tons, and 2025 with
stated that, 56.7% of the sources of municipal solid wastes in the Philippines came
from residential sources. 10.55% of the solid wastes’ composition of municipal solid
wastes in the Philippines are “Plastics”. With these being said, we can see that plastic
disposal is a problem.
2022, Global warming of more than of 1.5 degrees Celsius would cause
unprecedented climatic consequences, such as: bigger and more intense storms, rain
followed by more prolonged and intense droughts, etc. nevertheless, climate change
varies from place to place. For Example, the polar zones are twice as fast as the rest
of the world. Continuing the current trajectory of global warming, the Arctic Ice Sheet
With normal ppm amounting 250-400 ppm, May 2021 averages 419.13 and May 2022
with 420.99, significantly these averages are over the normal ppm.
We, as residents of San Francisco, Agusan del Sur, have thought about this
problem and are bothered greatly with the future that will be the world of our
grandchildren. Will they see seas? Will they have the opportunity to climb trees? Will
they breathe natural oxygen? Worst, will they have the future we hope and dream they
will have?
With this proposal, starting with Barangay 4, San Francisco, Agusan del Sur, a
more breathable clean air and surrounding, greener than what we usually see will be
a reality. With plastics slowly neglected and not use, then, we can say we are slowly
cleaning the air we breathe. The smallest community is the family, but a cleaner
barangay, leads to a cleaner earth. This is the earth, this is our planet, this is our home.
With this proposal, we hope and pray our grandchildren will greatly recognize
the efforts of our generation, not for fame, but for them as a gift.

An interview with Hon. Jovel C. Garcia and Hon. Rodrigo C. Enriquez, Brangay
Agusan del Sur, was conducted for a more reliable project proposal and accurate data
and information gathered from the barangay and ideas formulated by the proponents.
Hon. Garcia stated during the interview that one of the Barangays that has a
major problem concerning solid waste disposal, but not limited to, is the Barangay 4
of San Francisco, Agusan del Sur. Hon. Enriquez also answered that the barangay
entitled, “Ecological Solid Waste of Barangay 4, San Francisco, Agusan del Sur and
Providing Fines, Penalties, and Funds Thereof Base on R.A. 9003” or also known as
“Ordinance No. 009”. This ordinance aims to implement, but not limited to, solid waste
segregation. This somehow answers the “Major Problem” but does not really stricken
the disposal of plastic solid waste. For as we have looked around the barangay, there
is still a huge concern about plastic solid waste disposal. Seen physically and are real.
We have asked these honorable men if the barangay is open for resolutions, or
proposals to help the barangay fully implement such ordinance or add to it. “Base on

Before putting a closer designated area for the inhabitants to throw their solid
wastes materials, it would take the farthest inhabitants a good 15-20 minutes travel
duration from their home to the designated area. Should this project be implemented,
it would only take 5-8minutes for the inhabitants to travel and throw their solid wastes,
especially plastic solid wastes to the designated area and be collected by the BLGU
garbage collectors. This would help the inhabitants to efficiently throw their garbage,
and will also help the BLGU to collect all necessary solid wastes to be collected for the
