00:00 What are the dangers of prolonged exposure to smog? How can the public keep themselves safe?
00:05 Smog is a combination of pollutants in the air and they can cause permanent damage to our lungs through deposition to our alveoli or air sacs.
00:15 So the protection against smog is to wear a mask.
00:21 Actually, to wear a mask.
00:24 If you're waiting for the EDSA, you're being exposed to the smoke, wear a mask.
00:31 We're all wearing masks, right? You should wear a mask in high areas.
00:36 And of course, we have a program for smog.
00:39 We have a program that we're doing, where we'll have a bike advocacy.
00:46 We'll have a national bike day and we'll advocate everyone to have biking once a day to work.
00:53 I'll also go biking from Quezon City to Miami.
