Calling Noah's Ark!

Manila Bulletin

July 29 2025

It is undeniable that climate change is real.

Over the past two decades, we have been hit with 10 of the worst typhoons in history, including the unforgettable Typhoon Ondoy (2009) and Typhoon Yolanda (2013). Year after year, the Philippines is battered with storms so frequent that sometimes, weather analysts go through the alphabet and repeat after running out of letters to name typhoons with.

It wasn’t so before. In the 1970s, storms were less powerful and less frequent. One notable exception was super typhoon Yoling, with wind speeds up to 200 kph. I distinctly remember it as I was in my third year premed in UP Diliman when it hit. Metro Manila was flooded for days and we had to drive around in knee-deep floodwaters.

During other storms, I was marooned in my car for hours by floodwaters, and during at least two occasions, spent the night in it. So, I am used to what is being experienced these days.
