There were also lots of people who reacted and gave comments to the said post. One mainly shows that some people do not have enough knowledge in taking care of the environment by W. Tuazon-Sunga.

Adding, “Really sad that’s people’s doing. I believe that demolition had taken place in that area many times but they keep coming back and do the same things over again and again. They don’t care about the so called ‘healthy environment’ or even the world’s major problem that is ‘global warming’ or better yet, do they even understand what it means?
