This is a portion of a documentary aptly dubbed "Oras Na" meaning "it is time" from one of the biggest television networks in the Philippines, GMA News and Public Affairs, as part of their environmental campaigns to inform and educate the Filipino nation on the adverse effects of climate change.
This portion tackles on "fresh water" as a valuable yet diminishing resource in the Philippines today. According to the Philippine Water Monitor of the World Bank, the Philippines will face a fresh water crisis by the year 2025. it is feared that only a fraction of the current clean water will be available to each individual. and while the 2025 deadline may seem distant to some, there are communities like in the province of Tawi-Tawi that already know what it like to thirst after this precious human need.
