On CLIMATE CHANGE Malaybalayan says . . .

This is the designated important issue every blogger on the occasion of blog action day must reflect on. Malaybalayan hastens to add, and every moment from now on. In fact if one is not optimistic about the mess the world is in because of man's negligence, it will be "open sesame" for flash floods, typhoons, hurricane, earthquake . . .

To avoid technical terms about climate change, let us focus on what is simple. One only has to become a better observer. Did you notice floods now come rushing in right to one's door? If not your personal experience, the tv brought our attention to Katrina in New Orleans and Ondoy-Pepeng heartbreaking episodes. The denuded mountains are blatant reminders of the "freedom" we are giving to the waters from higher levels. No roots get in the way when heavy rains come. So while you are asleep, the floods have their way and onwards they come in torrents and abundantly so, the current can wipe out skycrapers, crops, bridges, name it.

Climate change is a change so we can also change it to do us good but it will take every one of us and every moment of every day to compensate for the many years of abuse and exploitation.
