00:00 Now that the flood has hit the new year, the left over trash and pollution has been washed away.
00:07 That is my first news.
00:09 The skyline of Metro Manila was almost not affected by the first open-air flood of 2024.
00:20 It was like a giant comet that hit the province of Manila and the surrounding provinces
00:24 because of the many fires and flash floods.
00:28 The area has almost zero visibility even if the sun is shining.
00:31 The same is the case with the NLEX in other parts of Manila and Quezon City.
00:35 Because of the thermal inversion and the recent fire,
00:39 the pollutants or the components of the dry particles such as the floods and the pollution in our area
00:47 mixed and combined.
00:49 That is why it is thicker than the normal that we experience of heat or smog in the past months.
00:57 That is why Gloria is wearing a mask and going out in the afternoon to get some sun.
01:02 She is saying that it is better to be careful, especially according to the Department of Health.
01:05 Smog is a risk to health.
01:08 I always bring this. We are already 87.
01:12 All the gunpowder that exploded in the air, it circulates as particulate matter or dust.
01:20 People inhale it and it is bad for our health.
01:23 The garbage that spilled in the area is also a source of pollution,
01:27 like the road 10 in Tondo, Manila and the road in Caloocan.
01:32 The floods that caused the C4 in Malabon also spread.
01:37 There is also a lot of garbage from both sides of the road.
01:41 That is why the two-way traffic of garbage trucks in Manila in one day,
01:45 every day, is three or more.
01:47 There are a lot of garbage now compared to the past days.
01:50 It's a bad day.
