Baha sa matataas na bahagi ng Rizal, isinisi ng PIO nito sa dami ng ulang ibinuhos ng Bagyong Enteng | 24 Oras
Bago ang Bagyong Enteng, hindi itinuturing na bahain ang mabubundok na bahagi ng Rizal dahil sa taas nito. Quarrying ang sinisi ng mga netizen pero sabi ng DENR, baka dapat ding tingnan ang urbanization na dahilan upang maging sementado ang maraming bahagi ng bundok.

00:00Before the typhoon, it is not considered that the mountainous part of Rizal is home because of its height.
00:07The netizens blamed it, but the DNR said that the urbanization should also be looked at as a reason for the many parts of the mountain to be cemented.
00:17Bernadette Reyes is right!
00:24The flood in Antipolo is raging.
00:27Floods in Pililya and roads that cannot be passed through Tanay due to the high tide.
00:38Many are thinking about how the mountainous parts of Rizal were flooded,
00:43even though they were not flooded before because of the high tide in their areas.
00:48The Public Information Office of the province blames the heavy rainfall caused by the typhoon Enteng.
00:56It is hoped that they will be warned about where the rain will fall.
01:08But will a few days of warning be enough if there is no way to get rid of the anger of nature?
01:16Just like the trees that cling to the rainwater,
01:20particularly in the Upper Marikino Watershed,
01:22which is divided by the towns of Antipolo, Baras, Rodriguez, San Mateo, and Tanay.
01:34On social media, quarrying in Rizal has become a hot topic.
01:39But according to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources,
01:42only a small or 1% of the entire Marikino Watershed has quarry.
01:48And if we talk about the Upper Marikino Watershed, which is a protected area,
01:52there is no quarry or mining.
01:55There was before, but the permit was canceled a long time ago.
01:58There is no quarry or mining in the Upper Marikino Watershed because for the most part, it is government owned.
02:07The policy now is no new quarries in the area.
02:12But the percentage of trees in the watershed is different,
02:16whether it's because of mining or something else.
02:19At that point, only 20% of the forest cover is in the protected area, according to the Masungi Geo-Reserve Foundation.
02:26But if the DENR's data is the basis,
02:2925% of the forest cover is fairly intact,
02:34while more than 42% is moderate forest cover.
02:39The area is also covered by vegetation.
02:41Although quarrying has an effect on the forest cover,
02:44in the case of Rizal, according to the DENR, the urbanization should also be looked at.
02:49Because if it's an urbanized area where everything is cemented,
02:53it's like you're building a rock and there won't be a drop of water when you're in an urbanized area.
03:01That's why environmentalists say that activities should be limited
03:05that have that effect, like the construction of houses.
03:09And in the watershed itself,
03:11while according to our laws,
03:12the only people who can stay inside protected areas or live there
03:16are the forest-dependent communities, ITs.
03:19It's been more than 10 years,
03:21but unfortunately, we haven't seen enough changes in terms of flood control projects.
03:28For GMA Integrated News,
03:30Bernadette Reyes,
03:32for Tutok 24 Horas.
