I practice that at home. Garbage segregation is good!

when I was in Cebu last year, i remember that Garbage collection is per "malata" or "di malata" (segregated) basis. I dunno if they still implement this system up to now...

just like here in japan, garbage segregation is very much observed...subways, malls, or any establishments: A SETof garbage bins are visible..even in parks, people are encouraged to bring their garbage with them and dispose it at home...it's really effective! I haven't seen any piled up garbage here and people are really accustomed to this practice..

[crinkle]

^yeah. i've noticed that too... saba-an lang jud ko ana'ng mangolekta ug mga guba na appliances and bicycles and such...

in cebu, though it's still being implemented. however, i don't believe Talisay's been doing an equally good job.

i think it will work in the phils as long as implementation is strictly enforced...bati man gud if mag-ningas-kugon na sad ang mga tao...

role model ang mandaue before..but now the city finds it hard to sustain..mao problema...however, we can look up to marikina in luzon...they are really doing a great job..the marikina river is now clean...and they have trash bins that are color-coded...

[slakker]

barangay luz ang pinaka-ngilngig nga solid waste management program, naka-generate sila millions gikan sa basura...

[baruto]

yeah!! our speaker mentioned about brgy luz and how it is successful...
