| local.seafdecaqd.extract | Lawmakers joined environmental groups on Monday in urging the Department of Environment and Natural Resources to immediately suspend the filling of Manila Bay's shore with synthetic white sand made from crushed dolomite. Senator Nancy Binay, citing a Department of Health warning, urged the DENR to stop the P385-million makeover, as the dust from dolomite, which will be used as a substitute for white sand, can cause adverse respiratory reactions, eye irritation and discomfort in the gastrointestinal system.
Dolomite is a type of mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate. | en |
