Excerpt
A study conducted by Ocean Conservancy revealed that the Philippines is now ranked third among countries which are highly contributing plastic pollution in oceans. The situation called for drastic action, with Ocean Conservancy warning that, if the trend continues, people and sea creatures run the risk of being endangered due to water pollution. Aware of this danger, 1,066 participants took part in this year’s Coastal Clean-up drive at the 1.5 kilometer stretch of Manila Bay near the SM Mall of Asia (MOA)
