Why Gina Lopez says she has no caldero?

Incoming president Rodrigo Duterte chooses anti-mining advocate Gina Lopez as environment secretary.

Incoming president Rodrigo Duterte chooses anti-mining advocate Gina Lopez as environment secretary.

A video of the exchange between Gina Lopez, incoming President Rodrigo Duterte’s choice as secretary of Environment and Natural Resources, and a pro-mining advocate is going the rounds of social media.

Lopez was asking the man to choose between food and minerals because she argued that mining that extracts minerals from underneath the ground destroys the land where man produce food. Apparently Lopez has not heard of responsible mining.

Apparently also, the pro-mining man mentioned the things that we use in our daily lives that came from mining such as toothpaste.
Here’s the exchange that followed:

Lopez: Kumakain ka ba? Ano ang mas importante, toothpaste o pagkain ? …Ano ang pipiliin mo, mineral o pagkain?

Pro-mining person: Both.

Lopez: Ay hindi pwede.

Pro-mining person:… pagkain, may kaldero ka o wala?

Lopez: Wala.

Pro-mining person: Wala kang kaldero?

Very revealing exchange. The pro-mining guy probably brought up caldero because you need that to cook food. A caldero or any cooking utensil including rice cooker contains metals that were mined from underground.

But then Lopez was probably telling the truth when she said she has no caldero because maybe she does not cook. For all we know she doesn’t know what a caldero is. She probably eats out or she orders and food is delivered to her. She has the means to do that.

She should be told that the food that was delivered to her was cooked in a caldero. When she eats, she uses plate, fork and spoon. She drinks her water from a glass. Those things contain minerals that came from mining.

Strange because in an article she wrote in Rogue Magazine, she revealed that when she was in Africa during her Ashram days, she cooked.

When Lopez was arguing with the guy,she was holding a microphone to deliver her message. That microphone contains metals from mining.

In that forum, Lopez was wearing a red dress. We imagine she was wearing shoes. Those were produced by machines that contained metals mined from the earth. If mining is totally banned, there would be no sewing machines, no needles and pins needed to make clothes and shoes. Gina would have to wear leaves just like Adam and Eve.

Did Lopez walk from her house to the venue of the forum? If she took a car, she was being untrue to her anti-mining advocacy because a car contains metals produced by mining. There would be no vehicles without mining. There would be no airplanes, no trains without mining.

The forum was held in an air-conditioned room. An aircon unit contains metals from beneath the ground that can only be obtained by mining. We imagine that the rooms in Lopez’s house are air-conditioned. Her house, we imagine, is sturdy because it is made of concrete and steel. She is able to sleep well and not exposed to the sun and the rain because materials from mining sheltered her from the elements.

Does she have a cellphone? She should throw that away because that contains many things from underground obtained through mining. Same with computers.

Lopez’s family is in communications, a business that is dependent on equipment and tools made of materials from mining. To use and enjoy the fruits of mining and denounce mining at the same time is the height of hypocrisy.

The New City Passes EURO 4 Standards

Honda Cars Philippines, Inc. (HCPI) announces that the New City has officially acquired EURO 4 emission standard certification from Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR). This is the first vehicle in Honda’s line-up to be locally certified with EURO 4 level emission standards. The certification is pursuant to the Department of Environment and Natural Resources Administrative Order (DAO) No. 2015-04 which mandates that all new passenger and light vehicles, and heavy duty motor vehicles made available in the market should comply with EURO 4 emission standards by January 2016 from the present EURO 2 emission standards.

HCPI first introduced EURO 4 level ready products in 2004 and by the end of 2006, all Honda models sold in the Philippines were already at EURO 4 emission level.

DENR stresses the importance of adopting EURO 4 emission standards for the sake of minimizing pollutants in the environment and for the assurance of the quality of air that we breathe. A EURO 4 compliant emits a much lower harmful substances such as Carbon Monoxide (CO), Hydrocarbons (HC) and Nitrogen Oxide (NOx).

In line with the idea to minimize pollutants, Honda always keeps in mind leaving behind a cleaner and greener environment, which is why Honda produces products that are environment friendly, of high-quality, and safe to use. Honda assures customers that the emissions coming from their vehicles have minimal effect on the environment. As HCPI President and General Manager, Toshio Kuwahara mentioned during their HR-V and New City launch event, “It has always been one of our thrusts to leave blue skies for our children. As part of our continuing mission to do so, we at Honda are one with the government’s endeavor to help protect and sustain our environment and do our part to ensure breathable clean air. We would like to assure our customers that Honda takes proactive actions to help contribute in reducing the destruction of our ozone layer and the effect of global warming’.

As of present time, Honda is proactively applying for certification for the rest of their vehicle line up. Kuwahara explains that “by January 2016, all Honda vehicles, from smallest Brio until Odyssey minivan will be officially certified as EURO 4 compliant.”
