    I wonder if matters have improved since the Ateneo pollution study last year?

    midweek 630am results are ok.

    but they should've measured monday or friday at 6pm

    the results would be much worse i would reckon. with slow traffic the TSP would increase significantly

    Most if not all monitoring points are located along major thoroughfare only

    True.

    On a related note, I wonder if our car filters filter out some of the soot/smog in Metro Manila's air.

    Makes me wish I have the moolah to buy the Model X 👍

    The website shows only particulate matter measurements (PM10 and PM2.5).
    I wonder how much NOx Metro Manila has.

    Si gina lopez medyo beholden and may hypocrisy din yan. Remember her family owns the damaging pipeline w/c leaked in makati. Even the toxic waste the old rockwell power plant produced is supposedly buried and entombed underneath a parking area in nearby pasig as reported by the pcij

    I hope she follows through w/ her advocacy this time around



    to be or not to be, that always confuses me!

    Marami ... along Ayala avenue lang .. there's condominium row. Then ang mga gated villages ng mga senyor and senyoritas flanking both sides of EDSA. I'd like to think, most of their homes are now equipped with air scrubbers.

    I'm glad I bought a house in FAR away Cavite. Katabi ng village namin are rice fields, I would sometimes still see herons there.

    Kaya hindi ako agree doon sa ginagawa condo/business district sa agham road. Wag gumaya quezon city sa makati/pasay city. Yan dalawa poorly planned, virtually no zoning rules., sobrang ingay. Nakikita nyo pa ba sinag ng araw jan.

    Sige hala tayo lang ng tayo ng high-rise. Eh paano pag lumindol.....domino effect. Tataka ako ano kaengotan mga botante sa makati. Dekada na si binay jan!!! Natawa pa ako dati ang lumaban si edu manzano. Eh hopeless talaga . Hahahahah

    Is the air really that bad? or is this a prelude to the Jeepney phase out?
