Modern solid waste management practices pushed

In his latest State of the Nation Address, President Ferdinand R. Marcos Jr. emphasized the need to update the 25-year-old Ecological Solid Waste Management Act to enhance modern waste management practices. This push aims to address the growing issue of public waste management and promote more sustainable methods. With the Philippines grappling with severe waste disposal problems, modernizing the act is seen as a crucial step towards a cleaner, more sustainable future. This initiative underscores the administration's commitment to environmental protection and public health.
