Our Manila Bulletin column ‘Eleventh Hour’ this week puts the spotlight on DanTAOn (www.dantaon.org), an online platform that aims to humanize the impacts of disasters and move people and nations to action. The platform seeks to present—through essays, photos, videos, and other formats—the narratives of people directly affected by climate change, and to visualize climate impacts using geographic information system (GIS) maps of sea-level rise projections from Climate Central.

In our Manila Bulletin column Eleventh Hour this week, Pinoy Climate Reality Leader Danna Peña delved into how social media’s material-centric culture of consumerism is worsening plastic pollution and contributing to global warming. To stop feeding the current culture of overconsumption, Danna said there must be more green jobs, more sustainable policies, and a more even distribution of wealth.
