Closer Look

Mangahan Floodway: How efficient is it now.

Originally designed with a width of 260 m with a high water level at 14 m at the exit section of floodway with 1 m freeboard.

During Typhoon Ondoy, about 3,000 CMS went through MangahanFloodway resulting in 2-3 meters flooding above the freeboard.

Page 22: 9th YES CAMP Lectures

The Ondoy tragedy is due to an extreme event …

BUT…..

Magnitude and extent could have been much less

Given wider and deeper channel ways

Greater capacities of natural retention ponds

For the future, among others we should:

increase, widen and deepen our channel ways,

implement easement rules strictly,

reforest,

allocate retention ponds

• Mudslide happened after heavy rains dumped 459.2 mm of rain on the area in the space of 3 days.

• In Dec 2003, at least 200 died from landslides and flooding after the area experienced the heaviest rainfall in 25 years.

Presentation Notes
In February of 2006, an estimated 1,500 to 2,500 people died after a school and an estimated 500 houses in the village of Guinsaugon, St. Bernard, Leyte was buried by mudflow. This mudslide happened after heavy rains dumped 459.2 milimeters of rain on the area in the space of 3 days.

Change in height of maximum high tide, from 1991 to 2002 based on social survey ranges from 0.5 - 1.0 m (4.5 – 9.1 cm/y)

There appears to be an acceleration in rate of subsidence in recent years.

Lateral variation in magnitude of subsidence is not a function of underlying lithology.

Page 61: 9th YES CAMP Lectures

* Winter temps will change more than summer temps.

• Minimum daily temp will increase more than max. daily temp

• Land will warm more than oceans, causing stronger monsoon

• Higher latitudes and altitudes will experience greater warming

• Number of frost days will decline, precipitation more rain that snowfall

Based on the IPCC middle

range scenario,entire East

Asia Region will

experience temperature rise of about

2.5C by end of the century

Direct Observations of Recent Climate

Change

There is observational evidence of increase intensity of tropical cyclone activity in the North Atlantic since 1970 correlated with the increase in sea surface temperature.

Cold days, cold nights and frost have become less frequent. While hot days, hot nights, and heat waves have become more frequent.

More intense and longer droughtssince 1970 particularly in the tropics and subtropics due to increase in temperature and decrease in precipitation.

CLIMATE CHANGE…• These changes are happening

faster than ever before.

• They have begun & will continuefor the foreseeable future.

• They are non-linear and no one knows when they will end.

• There are no assurances that natural or human systems can adapt quickly enough.

In summary, harm’s way:

• Typhoon– Luzon (north, southeast), Visayas (east)

• Drought (El Nino)– Mindanao (central, west)

• Climate Change – Temperature: Mindanao, Visayas

Aggravated by loss of forests which serve as carbon sinks & watersheds

• Half of the forests that originally covered 46% of the Earth's land surface are gone.

• Only one-fifth of the Earth's original forests remain pristine and undisturbed

- Urgent need for Disaster Risk Reduction, not justDisaster Response

- To be done under the Hyogo Framework for Action(HFA) adopted in January 2005 during the World Conference on Disaster Reduction.

- HFA calls for the effective implementation of DRR efforts to substantially reduce disaster losses by 2015in terms of lives and in the social, economic, andenvironmental assets of communities and countries,as an essential condition for sustainable development.

Disaster Risk Reduction:

People and institutions involved in preparedness, mitigation, and prevention activities associated with extreme events.

Page 85: 9th YES CAMP Lectures

Disaster Myths:• People panic during disasters, they

cannot be relied upon to react rationally

• The chaos that follows disasters encourage many people to engage in anti-social behavior – looting

• External experts are the main agents in risk reduction and disaster response

Page 86: 9th YES CAMP Lectures

Disaster Myths:

• People are fatalistic about disasters and do not take action to protect themselves

• When disaster strikes, people are helpless, passive dependent victims incapable of carrying out even basic tasks

What is the business case for

ending life on earth?

Page 93: 9th YES CAMP Lectures

New Rule

If we insist on ruining the planet, we have to stop

claiming we are a “superior species”

Presenter
Presentation Notes
Guilty of “species conceit” Dominion versus Stewardship Idea of Web of Life must become more than occasional ping of conscience. Must become the operating principle of our lives as people and as a society.
Page 94: 9th YES CAMP Lectures

CONCLUSION• Business as usual is NOT AN OPTION!

• Unless action is taken now:- the standard of living will suffer far worse

consequences- poverty will be exacerbated

- there will be more damage to property & lives- decades of growth can be wiped out - man’s very survival is at great risk!

Page 95: 9th YES CAMP Lectures

CONCLUSION• Climate change action

will require concerted effort of governments & their partners (PRIVATE SECTOR. NGOs, communities, development partners) to manage and adopt to a changing & more invasive environment

SHARED RESPONSIBILITY

Page 96: 9th YES CAMP Lectures

WE MUST PLAN TOGETHER.

Page 97: 9th YES CAMP Lectures

Under the framework of SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

1. Reduce carbon(mitigation)

2. Reduce risk(adaptation)

Page 98: 9th YES CAMP Lectures
Page 99: 9th YES CAMP Lectures

Some Mitigation Measures:• Energy Conservation• Improve energy efficiency• Shift to alternative, renewable fuel

(non fossil fuel)• Control urban sprawl• Improve mass transport system• Water conservation • Water recycling• Ecological Solid Waste Mgt – composting,

recycling & reuse • Stop burning of waste

Page 133: 9th YES CAMP Lectures

El Niño Southern Oscillation Eventsare likely to continue as a significant source of inter‐annual climate variability in the Coral Triangle region.

Sea Surface Temperaturesare likely to be between 1 to 4oC warmer by the end of this century.

Tropical Cyclonesare likely to become more intense.There is no clear Consensus, however, as to whether the location or frequency of tropical cyclones will change in a warming world.

OVERVIEW

Page 134: 9th YES CAMP Lectures

Rainfall and River Floware likely to become more extreme. The inter‐annual variability of monsoon rainfall will increase. The intensity of drought associated with a given rainfall deficit will be greater in a warmer world.

Sea Levelsare likely to rise from +4 to +6 meters due to the possibility of The melting of the large land-based ice sheets in Antarctica and Greenland. The possible timing of such events remain uncertain.

Ocean Acidificationwill likely make the aragonite saturation state “marginal” for coral reefs and marine life that require calcium carbonatewithin the period 2020‐2050.
