Prohibit burning of trash

Prohibit burning of trash

The Government’s anti-smoking drive is laudable. I wish it would approach with the same zeal the practice of burning household garbage and dried leaves. Right now, the entire city’s air is heavy with smog from backyard burnings. The degree of air pollution is so severe, tobacco smoke doesn’t even come close. No wonder respiratory disease is the number one illness among Filipino children and adults.
