Tall, glamorous looking , what can you ask for? These are some of the qualities that a condominium buildings have. But it's other sides are being ignored. Our government is only focusing in the economy and disregarded environmental aspects. In economy aspects, occurrence of tall buildings in our country signifies the high soaring of our economy. But in the environmental aspect, it is a sign of continuing environment deterioration.
Conversion of agricultural/ natural environment into a semi commercial uses has many impacts to the environment. Wild life loss their home resulting for their extinction. The vegetation starts to deplete and as we all know that some of the vegetations are one of the source of our basic needs .
Construction of condominium building has a high risk in the safeness's of people. First, it blocks the wind direction. Second, the solar orientation is not being properly maximize, it should be east-west to facilitate a north-south orientation. And when an earthquake take place, safety of people will be in threat.
In the brighter side, condominium buildings are one of the salvation when it comes in flood. After the devastation of Ondoy in the Philippines, some of rich people got a condominium units for the future when a great flood occur again, they have assurance of their safety.
