PROJECT NOAH FINALLY GETS A SEAT AT THE DPWH TABLE Dr. Mahar Lagmay explains that Project NOAH was not previously involved in DPWH’s planning processes, even though they were often asked for input during budget hearings. Historically, their expertise in nature-based, science-driven solutions was not fully tapped. He notes that current consultations are a positive step, allowing them to actively contribute to master planning and flood control strategies. #AtTheForefront WATCH HERE:

The Ige Bridge, our longest hydraulic control structure on the Aboru project, has just been baptized by flood—with no spillover to the community. This milestone not only validates our robust flood control measures but also underscores our commitment to a cleaner Lagos, as evidenced by the clear, styrofoam-free runoff. Such achievements remind us that thoughtful, innovative infrastructure can transform challenges into opportunities for resilience and sustainability. #GreaterLagosRising

Two hours of rain. That's all it takes for many Indian cities to come to a standstill. Meanwhile, Tokyo faces typhoons and keeps moving. The difference isn't luck. It's planning. Hidden beneath the city is a massive underground flood-control system that protects roads, homes, and lives before disaster strikes. As extreme rainfall becomes India's new normal, should we keep reacting every monsoon—or start building for the future? Would you like to see flood-control systems like this in Indian cities?

'SAYANG ANG HINAHARAP PAG HINDI NAGPAPAKITA' Rufa Mae Quinto is urging everyone involved in the flood control scandal to face the charges head-on. She shared that she, too, had experienced having a warrant of arrest, and even had to return to the Philippines to settle it. If she could face the music, she says, so can they.

When Shamima Muslim suggested that anyone who disagrees with President Mahama's decision to assess the flood situation by helicopter should "go and swim in the floodwaters," I politely reminded her that, given her experience in journalism and government, such a remark falls short of the democratic values we should uphold and that in a constitutional democracy, citizens and the opposition have every right to question government decisions without being insulted.

The flood sirens have gone off in the Upper Valley this afternoon due to a combination of heavy rain and snow melt. I have spoken to the Environment Agency and Calderdale Council. Current predictions suggest it is likely to get worse until about 3:30 – 4:00pm and then ease. This is being monitored and I'll update as the day progresses. There is surface water flooding on Halifax Road at Eastwood where a crew are working to unblock drains, surface water flooding at Callis where the road is closed, and a flood warning in Walsden. Other areas including Hebden Bridge, Mytholmroyd, and Todmorden are under flood alerts and teams are out clearing drains. Please avoid travelling to these areas. Residents should put up flood defences if possible. You can get flooding updates on or the Environment Agency website. Flood wardens also update on a number of local Facebook pages including Todmorden Flood Group and Hebden Bridge Flood Action Group. We are at the frontline of climate shocks here in Calder Valley. Rest assured I will continue to raise the issues we face with flooding at the highest levels of government.

With Pasig City residents being some of the beneficiaries of a healthy watershed, Mayor Vico Sotto urges the DENR to dialogue and collaborate with the Masungi Georeserve Foundation. Mayor Vico and his team visited the project site in 2022 to see the state of the watershed and the work being done to address deforestation. According to studies by the WorldBank and flood modeling by the Manila Observatory, a reforested Upper Marikina Watershed will help decrease the flood extent and flood volume in Pasig and Marikina City, should another Typhoon Ondoy happen. The group also planted native Katmon trees as a reminder of their visit and a symbol of their commitment to conservation in the uplands.
