It was rather sad to see all those fish killed because of water pollution in Taal, Batangas. I remember all the poor Filipinos who have no money to buy food, all those fishes could feed a thousand of starving Filipino families. The people in that neighborhood buried tons of fishes because it started to harm human. It is such a waste and I pity the fishermen who even loaned their capital just to have a source of income. I just hope that the government will act on this problem!

Hi. r3jcorp. I am very sorry to hear about this.
This is really sad. Many people are not caring anymore and they pollute the earth and the waters. They have to understand that the water has to be healthy so that many people will have enough of food to eat. It is so sad to know that many Filipinos will be starving because of not having a substantial amount of fish to eat. I also hope and pray that the government will act upon this problem too!
