Projects

We conduct workshops on ecological waste management to the different sectors of society - barangays, cities, schools, church organizations, government offices, private offices, civic organizations and business establishments.

Our goals for the workshops are:

• Education and awareness of the people on environment protection and proper waste management, reduction of waste, segregation at source composting and recycling towards a zero waste society.

• Decentralization of waste management through the establishment of a Materials Recovery Facility (MRF) in every barangay or in a cluster of barangays and in schools, offices, churches, and business establishments. A MRF must have a composting area and a small warehouse to temporary store the clean recyclables. The clean recyclables are sold to the junk shops for ultimate sale to the factories. These MRFs, because they are such in small scales, are not capital intensive as differentiated from MRFs in industrialized countries. No expensive and highly technical equipment are needed.
