PSC and DOST-PCIEERD launched Exhibits on Environment

February 19, 2014

I was invited by the bubbly Ms. Karen of Philippine Science Centrum, whom I met at the press launch of 2012 Science Film Festival in the Philippines, to the launching of a new gallery featuring 8 interactive and informative Exhibits on Environment.

Sponsored by the Department of Science and Technology – Philippine Council for Industry, Energy and Emerging Technology Research and Development (DOST-PCIEERD), the exhibit aims to provide practical solutions to challenges we face everyday. Learn more about trash timeline, recycling, e-waste, biogas, standby (phantom) power (not in picture), surface runoff (not in picture), lightbulbs and dual flush toilets.

Not all trash decompose in a relatively short time.

Biodegradable waste -> methane gas -> fuel for kitchen stove!
Incandescent, halogen, CFL, or LED?
