INTRODUCTION People may choose to live in a perfect place. Cleanliness, somehow is one of the criteria in choosing so.

Sometimes, living in a beautiful area is not enough. One might wonder where on earth that could be. If we would imagine, and think again, there would be a second thought of finding that place. On the negative side, we can say that it's very common for us to see our surroundings untidy. Let's make a realization and further understand our country's most common problem, inadequate garbage disposal.

Garbage here, garbage there; therefore garbage might be seen anywhere. In our country, if we will open our eyes clearly, as the increasing population continues to dominate our social problems, there is also a higher rate in garbage disposal. With places such as Manila, we could say that one major cause of improper waste disposal is accompanied by the demographic effect.

Another cause is our ignorance. Due to lack of responsibility, we sometimes forget that there might be people who would suffer because of our wastes. Just for an instance, other people would throw their mercury batteries or toxic wastes in a very public place where one group of people usually stays. There is a tendency that this group of people will have their diseases because of these wastes.

Laziness would be also a factor. It's common for us people to have an attitude of being lazy. For an example, if the trash can or bin is far from where we are, we tend to just keep our wastes inside our pockets and bags. There would be instances that we will stick our chewing gums under the table or desks just to enjoy what we are currently doing. It's kind of

funny but it happens repeatedly.

Some people had taken their opportunity to pinpoint that the government is the real cause of this problem. They say the implemented laws are nonsense. Laws are forgotten or sometimes even government officials didn't abide. Because of this, the improper garbage disposal became at its worst stage.

The purpose of this report is to make the readers understand more that improper garbage disposal is not just a simple thing. It might be common and we became used to it. But we should not forget, if our whole world would be polluted these waste products then diseases will spread, our wonderful place create by God will be destroyed. So, why not start now and save our environment by having our solutions. Spread the words of the RA 9003 or the act of providing an ecological solid waste management program, creating the necessary institutional mechanisms and incentives, declaring certain acts prohibited and providing penalties, appropriating funds therefore, and for the other purposes. Even a single person can help. People, the environment needs your help so act now.

METHODOLOGY Fulfilling this kind of report is hard as a research but the group had a great time in dealing with themselves and with other people also. With the given problem in the

environment, it became easy for them to do the methods.
