Problems

  • The Philippines is the third most country at risk to be effected by climate change.

  • This is because majority of their population and infrastructure is located in coastal regions.

  • In the near future Manila will be swamped more often by tidal surges, battered by ever stronger typhoons and storms, monsoon rains and hit by deeper droughts.

Solutions

  • The Philippines Government has a “Sustainable Development Strategy” designed to reduce the effects of climate change.

  • Precautions such as 

    • building houses away from the coastline

    • preparing for increasing sea levels and stronger typhoons and cyclones

    • installation in houses to prepare for increasing temperatures

    • safer stronger houses to prepare for more powerful natural disasters 

will help the effects on climate change on the population of Manila.
