This is very unlike me, but I'm already on my soapbox today. Also, I lived in the Phillipines for two years. Our son was born there.
I have a very soft spot in my heart for the PI and all of the good, hardworking, and wonderful people that live there.
Peace & blessings,
Marge
I would like to write to you all about the recent oil spill tragedy in Guimaras, Philippines. Guimaras is a tiny island in Southern Philippines known for its rich marine biodiversity, white beaches, mangrove and seaweed plantations.
But on August 11, an oil tanker carrying oil from Petron company sank in Guimaras waters affecting as much as 300 kilometers of coastline, 65,000 hectares of mangrove and seaweed plantations including 26,000 individuals displaced from their homes, most of them fishermen who depend on fishing as their livelihood. More than 900 individuals have been treated from respiratory infections and skin diseases due to exposure from high toxic levels of harmful elements and exposure to oil.
Please help me spread awareness by joining me at http://saveguimaras.wordpress.com/ (we will launch http://www.saveguimaras.com/ this week).
You can also visit other groups who are involved in helping Guimaras. http://www.projectsunrise.org
