Dealing with the problems on wastes: Sen. Cynthia A. Villar leads the oath-taking ceremony of the newly-elected Board of Trustees of the Chamber of Cosmetics Industry of the Philippines Inc. (CCIP) and the group’s 1st General Membership Meeting. The re-electionist senator said that since CCIP members are involved in the product manufacturing, raw materials supply, packaging and distribution, among others, they are in a very good position to make a big difference to ensure a sustainable environment. The senator, chair of the Senate environment and natural resources committee, says she plans to amend Republic Act 9003 or the Ecological Solid Waste Management Act of 2000 since solid wastes particularly plastics is one of the most urgent concerns that we are facing now.
