As an ENVIRONMENTAL AND SANITARY ENGINEER knowledge¡¯s the applications of what are being taught to us in the university. Part of the academic subjects is the current situation of the environment. The environment as a complex and aesthetically valued matter plays a vital role in the development of the community, affects the health of the public, and determines the clean I believes that every one of us has the duty to protect and conserve our natural resources for the present and future generations. We, as the living protector of what God has created, we have the duty to spread information, raise awareness, and be a living example to others. By that, we will be able to achieve a common goal and objectives. The right of every creature to a safe and sustainable environment becomes possible, and most importantly sustainable development will no longer be difficult to attain. In addition, comprehensive actions of the government, organizations, and stakeholders are also necessary to address the problems effectively in harmony with the environment. The increasing environmental problems had made him devote his time to that kind of movement. He emphasized that the destruction of the environment will result to a substandard quality of living. He added that our actions will impart equal and opposite reactions to our environment. We should always take into account the integrity of our environment when we start development. join in protecting and saving our environment to its further destruction. Environmental awareness is being set and at of great importance nowadays. We are all affected by the actions of every mankind with respect to the consumption of our natural resources. Helping the environment especially the waterway bodies to revive and get back their acceptable condition. The wastes that are being disposed at the creek are an eyesore and a risk to the public health. The wastes are obstructing the flow of water which causes the natural water level to rise and will result to flood. Public health is covered by the improper disposal of raw sewage to the surrounding environment. A proper sanitation is described and well pictured out by the help of the Sewage Treatment Facility that controls the effect of nuisance to become acceptable to the threshold limit of human. Degradation of the quality of our environment also means that the quality of life also decreases. Everything is interrelated with each other that is why it is important to practice a sustainable usage of all of our available resources for the benefits of the future generation. The sewage or domestic wastewater for example is one of the most detrimental source in our environment if it is not being treated and disposed to the environment as a raw material. As a result it, degrades the quality of land, water, air and most especially the quality of life that is affected by the improper disposal of sewage. Sanitation is one of the parameters that set the quality of living in a community. Good sanitation means good quality of life as to poor sanitation means poor or bad quality of life. |

Thank you Carlos for highlighting the issue of sanitation through your report. Each day, nearly 1,000 children die due to preventable water and sanitation-related diseases. I wish you the very best with your major so that you can contribute to a clean and healthy environment in your community.

Hello Carlos, other ambassadors are paying a lot of attention to sanitation and hygiene issue. They are providing their own waste management projects or seminars, and you may have read it from our board :) Hope their reports help you on your main theme of report in here.
And keep up with your work!! Cheers

Hello Carlos
Sanitation is indeed something that should be kept well to guarantee basic living. However as many reports had told, many places lack proper sanitation management. With engineering methods and the will, this could be improved.
Thanks for sharing :)

I study civil engineering. Sanitation and environment engineering (basically having to do with the safe disposal of solid waste and wastewater and the mitigation of damage they cause to the environment) is under civil engineering. Engineering has an enormous role in safeguarding public health.

Sewage water must not be disposed in rivers or oceans. It must by suitably treated in order to provide water to the landscaping. This is an ideal treatment as per my opinion.

What exactly does environmental and sanitary engineering entail? If one were to study it in school, what sort of courses would they have to look forward to? Also, this article was quite short and didn't go into much detail on the role of such engineers in environmental protection. I'd like to know more.
