Philippines is the third in ten countries affected by changes in our climate. Viewed in this study the vulnerability or susceptibility of these countries to climate change based on their economy and infrastructure, and their ability to respond to disasters such as storms, floods, drought, and increasing sea water. This weakness has also been seen lashed by typhoons Pedring and Quiel our country last year (United Nations University's Institute for Environment and Human Security and German Alliance Development Works)
The SWS survey revealed that 85 percent — or eight out of 10 in 1,800 — Filipinos have “personally experienced” climate change impacts in the last three years. However, 63 percent said they are not doing anything about it
No responses
