change is getting worse every year that passes by. Climate change is no joke,
so we must take action and start doing what we can to preserve mother Earth.

BUHOS, BY SENATOR LOREN LEGARDA AND DIREK BRILLANTE MENDOZA TO CREATE A DOCUMENTARY VIDEO
ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE. AS CLIMATE CHANGE IS CONTINUOUSLY TAKING EFFECT, IT TOOK US ONDOY,
PEPENG, AND BASYANG FOR US TO REALIZE THAT CLIMATE CHANGE IS NOT JUST A SCIENTIFIC AND
ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE, BUT AN ALL-ENCOMPASSING THREAT TO OUR BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS - FOOD,
POTABLE WATER, SHELTER, DECENT LIVELIHOOD AND LIFE ITSELF.
THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT IS ALSO TACKLED BY SENATOR LEGARDA IN HER DOCUMENTARY. THE
GREENHOUSE EFFECT IS THE PROCESS OF THE HEAT BEING TRAPPED IN THE EARTH'S ATMOSPHERE; THIS
IS THE EFFECT OF GREENHOUSE GASES. GREENHOUSE GASES HAVE FAR-RANGING ENVIRONMENTAL AND
HEALTH EFFECTS. EXTREME WEATHER, FOOD SUPPLY DISRUPTIONS, AND INCREASED WILDFIRES ARE
OTHER EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE CAUSED BY GREENHOUSE GASES.
HALOCARBONS ARE ANOTHER HARMFUL SUBSTANCE THAT GREENHOUSE GAS HAS EMITTED. THEIR GLOBAL
WARMING POTENTIALS ARE THOUSANDS OF TIMES GREATER THAN CARBON DIOXIDE, AND THEIR EMISSIONS
ACCOUNT FOR 14% OF CURRENT GLOBAL WARMING. ANOTHER EFFECT OF GREENHOUSE GAS IS THE MELTING
OF ICEBERGS AND ICE POLAR CAPS.
