This super typhoon kills several people and even animals, It destroys shelters and leaves a lot of people hopeless.
In this moment of devastation, Sierra Madre (The Backbone of Luzon) took a stand and do her thing she protects more lives. Being the longest mountain range in the Philippines, she acts as a natural shield against these natural disasters and floods we all know that trees prevent soil erosion, and trees also play a vital role in slowing wind and water flow. I can say that the Sierra Madre really saves millions of lives.
STILL IN DANGER?
Despite the vital role that Sierra made plays, the Government eyeing this holy mountain for their planned project "Kaliwa Dam"
and if it is pushed through this mountain will be gone, including our endangered species "The Philippine Eagle".
