As the team is now back
in Quezon City, the Rotary Club of Quezon City (which was the first and
original Rotary Club of Quezon City) hosted us for the day. We were shown the Quezon
City dump and landfill site and Biogas project. I have to give credit to Quezon
City Council at their organised recycling collection of waste and their Biogas
project which produces energy from waste. The City Council is rightly proud of
their achievements so far in energy production from waste and the amount of
materials which are recycled. They certainly have the right attitude and
approach and we can learn a few lessons from them in the UK.
Miuch of the recycled is
packaged and sent to Co-operatives as well and they sell the materials and the
profit goes to local deprived communities.
This for me both as a
Co-operative Councillor and a keen recycler was excellent to see and hear
about.
