Although on a global scale soil loss is unlikely to be a major threat to food security, the impacts are probably going to be felt at the local and regional levels where farmers are too poor to overcome the damage.

MMDA Chairman Bayani Fernando told reporters that the compost the MRFs are producing is piling up because no one is interested in purchasing it.


The piles of compost have already caused problems for the MMDA specifically at its Manggahan, Pasig MRF which the Pasig City government has threatened close down.

We are conscious of keeping our Alexandra environment beautiful and clean. We took pride in getting our residents to, at the very least, segregate wet and dry wastes. We knew that dry, recyclable waste took up a wasteful third of the garbage bulk. These recyclables were to be sorted out in the dumpsites anyway.
