CALAPAN CITY, Oriental Mindoro, Dec. 21 (PIA) – A school here adopted a waste segregation project in support to the advocacy of Mayor Doy Leachon towards sustainability of the Green Calapan program.
The Holy Infant Academy (HIA) complied with the city ordinance on proper waste management through its different school activities. Thru the joint efforts of Fr. Nestor J. Adalia, school director, and Alona V. Cueto, school principal, HIA adapted a child-friendly waste segregation project, by reducing the use of plastics and implementing the smoking ban in all premises of the school and the cathedral.
Themed “HIAns in action for Life”, the school launched the “HIAns in action for Clean and Green campaign” which resulted to different activities anchored to the six undertakings of the Green Calapan program namely: No Smoking, No Plastic Use, Earth Hour, Tree Planting, Clean City, and Materials Recovery Facility.
In compliance with the No Smoking Ordinance, Sto. Niño Cathedral Parish and HIA prohibited smoking on parking areas inside the school and the church compounds.
As part of implementation of the No Plastic Policy, the canteen stopped using plastic drinking straws for soft drinks. The school also discouraged the use of Styrofoam - whenever there are celebrations the students are encouraged to bring their own containers.
Actively pushing the goal of instilling among students the right practice of waste segregation, the School Council of Students (SCS) distributed to each classroom two new trash bins for biodegradable and non-biodegradable wastes; and boxes for papers which can still be recycled.
Moreover, garbage disposal areas of the school were specified. Located in these areas are groups of bins secured in structured plywood and covered with tarpaulins having cartoonish designs to get the attention of children of the designated areas to throw their trash.
The SCS officers however promised to do more research on how to make waste disposal fun and interesting thus making the Green Calapan program sustainable.(Ara Mariel Bolasco/Louie T. Cueto/PIA-4B)

CALAPAN CITY, Or Mindoro, Dec. 11 (PIA) –- The newly inaugurated national highway in the municipality of Puerto Galera, some 39 kilometers away from Calapan City, had become impassable to any type of motor vehicle due to
nonstop heavy downpour yesterday brought about by flash floods in barangay Villaflor in that town. The road had been heavily damaged.  Four major landslides occurred.
Some 50 passenger and private vehicles got stranded in between the landslides in the area and at the town proper.
The municipal government of Puerto Galera under Mayor Hubbert Christopher A. Dolor had taken action to ease the situation of the trapped commuters. 
Continuous heavy rains rendered rehab work very difficult. If rains persist, it may take some two weeks to one month to fully open the road to traffic, it was gathered.
Due to the risks involved in commuting passengers, the usual fare of P80 had been upped temporarily to P300 from Puerto Galera to Calapan. Only single motorcycles and tricycles could traverse the highway. (DOS/Louie T. Cueto/PIA-4B)
