other local government propose a reservoir for every barangays…deepwell is the most commonly the source of potable water…others are spring…but the most of all, in my idea WE are the solution…thats all..just think about it!good day

More trees is better to the environment. It might not solve the water scarcity totally since population is growing and drought, but it will help minimize air pollution since it will be come a protective area where trees can be planted around it thus help absorbed air pollution that besets the city.

However, I'm also thinking of interconnecting the dams. This way, if one dam is full they can divert the extra resources on other dams that need them. During storms, they can load balance the water storage on all dams, so that it will take longer for dams to overflow. Desalination plants will have a role to fill up the dams in case there is a island wide shortage of water. This idea may seem in epic proportions, but I don't see that its impossible.

But it fell on deaf ears. SO i wish you the best of luck in your venture and my you safely traverse the corruption and the I want my cut people.
