At any given time, the country has 146 billion cubic meters of water available, yet we are treating it like a free resource… we are throwing water away by the second, and we are not managing it properly,” Environment Secretary Ramon Paje said.

Last June 27, 2012, one reporter in our discussion explained that fresh water in the world is decreasing. He even showed some pictures of people in the other countries who are encountering problems on how to get water. Water is the most abundant resource here on Earth.

However the reporter said that we will gradually experience problems in fresh water because the world's supply of clean fresh water is decreasing day by day.
