00:00Garbage is also a big problem, especially when it rains.
00:03It is often the reason for flooding in many places.
00:05With the help of the government and some groups,
00:08they are working on a way to make garbage beneficial.
00:12That is the story of JM and Sinas, JM.
00:17Brother Kim, one of the advocacy of MMDA
00:20is to reduce garbage and improve Metro Manila.
00:25That's why through an environmental project,
00:27a footbridge in Ortigas Avenue,
00:30they provided a new type of garbage
00:32using plastic reusable materials.
00:35That's the news here in San Juan City.
00:39More than 350,000 metric tons of plastic
00:42are transported from the Philippines to the ocean
00:45according to a multidisciplinary open access scientific journal.
00:50When it rains continuously,
00:52garbage, especially plastic,
00:54can be the reason for flooding
00:56if it is not thrown properly.
00:58But why make the problem of garbage worse
01:01if it can be beneficial?
01:04Just like these colorful plant pots
01:07made from repurposed sachet pockets.
01:09This is the Ecobridge Retrofit Project
01:12that can be found in a footbridge
01:14along Ortigas Avenue in San Juan City.
01:17Under the leadership of the Metropolitan Manila Development Authority or MMDA
01:20and with the help of an art design group,
01:23the footbridge was made beautiful
01:25using sustainable recyclable materials.
01:28The footbridge looks like a garden walkway
01:31because of the number of plants they put.
01:35But aside from the aesthetic appeal,
01:37this project also promotes
01:39various eco-friendly practices
01:42such as recycling,
01:43avoiding the use of single-use plastic,
01:46and continuous care for the environment.
01:49This is accompanied by a few footpaths in the footbridge.
01:52When you go up,
01:54you can look at the plants,
01:56it's beautiful to look at.
01:57It's beautiful.
01:58I thought it was just wood.
02:00I thought it was going to crumble,
02:01it won't last long.
02:02But when I made it, it turned out to be plastic.
02:03It's okay.
02:04Yes, it should be like that.
02:05For those who sell marimos,
02:09they are not afraid of this.
02:11The Ecobridge Retrofit Project
02:13promotes environmental sustainability in Metro Manila
02:16and continuous improvement
02:18in public places
02:20using recyclable materials.
02:25Here in San Juan City,
02:26I am JM Encinas,
02:27and that is the true story
02:29that you should know.
02:31Thank you so much, JM Encinas.
