Cadiz City is a zero – waste society!
That’s how City Mayor Salvador G. Escalante Jr. foresees Cadiz in years as he initiated the 1st Basura Summit 2009 last March 3 at the Laura Seafront Beach Resort here.
According to Mayor, the summit aimed to awaken the local religious sectors and get them involved in all government programs on environmental protection and solid waste management. It was also to eliminate the sectarian attitude of the church leaders.
The one-day symposium tackled the focal issue on the implementation of R.A. 9003. Mr. Elmer Espeja, project officer of the Provincial Environmental Management Office, advocated on the Climate Change and Key Features of R.A. 9003.
Mr. Cesario Juele, Consultant for CMO, presented the LGU Solid Waste Management Plan of Action for 2009.
Engr. Jimel Lopez, Consultant for SWM, along with Mr. Juele, talked about the Overview of Problems in the Implementation of R.A. 9003.
Open forums and workshops for SWOT analysis and the role of each sector in the implementation of R.A. 9003 were conducted immediately every after discussion./*
