Ensure that waste bins are clean and

orderly to prevent

rats, cockroaches, mosquitoes,

and other insects from inhabiting it.

Properly label

containers for

easy

identification

Place used cooking oil in bottles before

disposal.

Do not dispose oils in the sink. This will

cause clogging.

Rinse used soft drink bottles before

disposal

Bottles, newspapers, and cartons may be

sold/given to the junk shop

Fold cartons for easy storage.

These should not be stored for long

periods of time to prevent insects from

inhabiting it.

Observe cleanliness in your

surroundings

Remove waste

materials that

may block the

sewers.

Do not sweep

trash towards

the sewers.

This will clog

the sewerage

system.

Do not burn dried leaves. This

damages the ozone layer, our

protection from the heat of the sun.

Dried leaves may be used as

fertilizers

Waste management and

disposal is simple and easy.

Maintain a system to help you

ensure the cleanliness of

your household and

surroundings.

„Well done, you good and faithful servant!‟ said his master. „You have been

faithful in managing small amounts, so I will put you in

charge of large amounts. Come on in and share my

happiness!‟

Oratio Imperata for Deliverance from CalamitiesAlmighty Father, we raise our hearts to You in gratitude

For the wonders of creation of which we are part,

For Your Providence in sustaining our needs,

And for your Wisdom that guides the course of the universe.

We acknowledge our sins against You and the rest of creation.

We have not been good stewards of Nature and we have confused Your

command to subdue the Earth.

The environment is made to suffer our wrongdoing, and now we reap

the harvest of our abuse and indifference.

Global warming is upon us, typhoons, floods, volcanic eruptions,

and other natural calamities occur in increasing numbers and intensity.

We turn to You, our loving Father, and beg forgiveness for our sins.

We ask that we, our loved ones and our hard earned possessions

be spared from the threat of calamities, natural and man-made.

We beseech You to inspire us all to grow into responsible stewards of

Your creation,

And generous neighbors to those in need.

AMEN
