INTRODUCTION

Environmentalists stress that Republic Act 9003 calls for the adoption of the
best environmental practices in ecological waste management and explicitly excludes
waste incineration as an ecological option. These polluting disposal facilities are major
sources of greenhouse gas emissions to the atmosphere which adds to global warming.
Landfills and open dumps, according to studies, account for 34 percent of human-related
methane emissions to the atmosphere, a global warming gas that has 23 times more heattrapping power than carbon dioxide. These landfills and open dumps are illegal under RA
9003. Mismanagement of waste has serious environmental consequences: ground and
surface water contamination, local flooding, air pollution, exposure to toxins, and spread
of disease. Many of the disposal sites contain infectious material, thus threatening
sanitation workers and waste-pickers. Annual waste generation in the Philippines is
expected to grow 40 percent by 2010. Improvements in recycling, collection, and
disposal will become even more critical as garbage production continues to increase with
population growth and economic development. Past efforts to promote waste segregation
at source have minimal impact despite the presence of Republic Act 9003. Most of these
were barangay, city, and municipal ordinances providing for sanctions and penalties for
non-compliance. Campaigns, seminars, trainings and other different community activities
were implemented with the help of various private groups or NGOs to pursue the
objective of solving the garbage problem.
Most people know that certain types of waste need to be disposed of in specific
ways, in order to keep from contaminating the environment through improper waste
disposal. Taking old paint to the hazardous facility, keeping recyclables out of the trash,
and various other rules of disposal are all designed as a form of protection for the world
around you. However, not everyone realizes the major consequences that can come from
disregarding these rules. Everyone slips at one time or another and disposes of waste in
an irresponsible way, but once youre aware of what improper waste disposal can do

and once you realize the scope of the problem if everyone in the world keeps slipping
once or twice youll probably pay a lot more attention to the issue.
Now days, people are having problem in their environment such as air pollution,
improper waste management and bio-chemicals. Now, here is a cooperative that seeks to
address not only the economic and social, but also the environmental sustainability, in a
living village model. Cabiao, Nueva Ecija, Philippines is home to the country's first
Ecovillage. However improper waste management strikes their community. How can
Cabiao manage to put a step to prevent or lessen the risk of improper waste management,
moreover villagers are maintaining the beauty of their environment to prevent this kind of
pollution the villagers should conduct some plans to solve their problems even the
smallest problems. Thus this research will focus on how Cabiao manage to maintain the
cleanliness of the environment in their community.
The problem of the effective solid waste management is very important now a
days and the solution of this problem is necessary not only to the safety of human
environment but to human health as well. At the same time, it is necessary to underline
that often a little attention is paid to this problem and the solid waste are often disposed
improperly. What is more, this problem is considered to be less important than the
problem of proper disposal of other types of waste, such as radioactive. However, the
danger and potential threat of solid waste often remains underestimated.
