I watched the SIGNOS: Banta ng Nagbabagong Klima replay last night on QTV Channel 11 (first aired on GMA 7). It was an eye-opening documentary on climate change.
The signs of the times are posing a dangerous threat to humanity. Erratic weather patterns…
As far back as I can recall, the most recent natural disasters that hit various parts of [...]
