Public warned of health risks linked with firecracker use
Saturday, December 31, 2011
MANILA — As 2012 approaches, environmental group EcoWaste Coalition warned the public of the health risks linked with the use of firecrackers.
The air pollution that results from blasting firecrackers and fireworks is hazardous to health, according to the group.
For its part, the Philippine College of Chest Physicians (PCCP) said infants and young children, pregnant women, the elderly and people with existing heart, neurological and respiratory problems are the people most at risk from pollutants coming from the exploding firecrackers.
“The toxic smoke and dust resulting from pyrotechnics explosion contain many nasty pollutants, including suspended particulate matters, that can easily enter the lungs and put people’s health at risk,” PCCP president and pulmonologist Dr. Maria Encarnita Blanco-Limpin said.
Aside from particulate matters, pyrotechnics-related pollutants include carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, hydrocarbons, metal, nitrous and sulfuric oxides.
Firecrackers can also cause damage to different parts of the body as the Department of Health listed 187 firecracker-related injuries since monitoring began on December 21. (Virgil Lopez/Sunnex)

Tickets range from p500 to p1500 for these themed events that are professionally run –no wine merchants sponsorship, pushy wine salesmen or tacky banners to ruin the evening. Each wine tasting ticket contains a certain number of stubs that can be redeemed for a tasting pour of a wine among those on a line-up which often contains wines that are quite old and expensive.

Wine stores of Yats Wine Cellars offer interesting gift packs for all occasions. Wine gift baskets from these wine shops have to contain something more interesting than just a colorful packaging with very mediocre content. The wine has to be a bit more than marginally drinkable. Last year many people were disappointed with the wine gifts they received when they went around to drinking the wine.
Wine from all major wine regions are available, including fine wines from Bordeaux, Burgundy, Rhone, Loire, Sauternes Barsac, Champagne, Chablis, Meursault, Cote Rotie and Romanee Conti are all available here.
