Authorities in the Philippines are racing to find and secure a sunken tanker ship loaded with 800,000 litres (210,000 gallons) of industrial fuel oil that has started to leak into waters rich in coral and marine life.

Wtf are we doing still using oil anyway?
Rebuke strikes the wise one more deeply
than a hundred lashes ona a fool.
What’s this got to do with oil spill?
@StillMe Be terrified and do not sin!
Consider this in your hearts on your bed
and shut up! Pause
Sad, GET BUSY NOW!!! All volunteer needed. Clean up duty.

Here in the Philippines, it’s not big news, we are used to it.
Filipinos will never push for elimination of fossil oil because of such accidents.
Climate Change policies mandating fuel companies add 10 percent bio oil to gasoline and push to modernize jeepneys by making it partially electric will cause additional burden to us ordinary citizens. Our policy makers have their own cars and private drivers. We, the ones using jeepneys everyday don’t complain or excited to remove jeepneys in the streets.
Our policy makers want a particular design to for a bio jeep, and it’s to be supplied by China!
A unit costs 2.5 to 2.8 million pesos. A 55 year old driver will die and his debt passed to his children.
Jizuz! Walang paki ang mga buakang tanker. Corruption to the max kase – iyan sira ang kabuhayan, sira ang kalikasan. GUTOM at INIS ang naiwan

Who owns this vessel and this cargo? Make them responsible for this disaster.
You Filipinos forever idolize your politicians who enriched themselves only & did nothing for you
There has to be a way to suck that up and put into another barge. They only waste time trying to bucket it.
China company? Looks like a terrorist attack to me.
Thank you 🌈💖🍀🙏 for cleaning 🧼 for others to blame 😳😓
