Environmental concerns drive beauties (Philippine Daily Inquirer)

PILI, CAMARINES SUR -- Five beauty queens from four continents vying for the Miss Earth crown find higher cause in joining a pageant to raise people’s awareness of the environment, the degradation of which they are witness to in their own countries.

Zhazira Nurkhodjaera is from a city called Semipalatinsk in Kazakhstan in Central Asia where the average life span is 50 years.

Describing the place as far and isolated, Nurkhodjaera said the Russians conducted underground nuclear bomb tests there until 1991 when the Soviet Union crumbled.

“I have seen many babies with abnormalities, with no hands and feet,” she said.

Nuclear test

Nurkhodjaera, who cannot speak the Kazakh language but Russian and English, joined the pageant to get the message out about what happened to her people and their environment.

“Nuclear testing must be stopped,” she said.

Beyond the beauty pageant, Ŕine (pronounced En-ya) Gormley said she would continue her study on water pollution, the first part of which she has published.

Gormley has a degree in environmental science and is in her final year of doctoral studies on water pollution at the University of Ulster in Northern Ireland.

She said where she’s from fresh water sources are in grave risk of toxic contamination because the algae is dwindling.

Desertification

In Africa, Millicent Olyn concerns herself with awareness campaigns on the causes and prevention of desertification.

She said she appears in talk shows and before school kids to tell them about the indiscriminate cutting of trees and bad practices that hasten desertification.

“Our country is big with only 1.8 million inhabitants but 58 percent of it is the Kalahari Desert while 38 percent is classified reserve and only 12 percent built-up areas and agricultural farms,” she said.

Olyn lives in Iwaneng Town in Botswana where she promotes proper garbage disposal because communities there have to be taught proper sanitation.

Norwegian Margaret Paulin Hauge fears a future without snow in winter if the depletion of the ozone layer is not stopped.

Hauge, whose mother is from Davao City, said they missed the snow in Norway last winter because of the warm temperatures; it rained instead.

“Our country has been known for its four seasons and winter is very important to us. People come to our place to enjoy the winter holiday,” she said.

Veronica Ochoa is from Ciudad (city) Cuenca in Ecuador which, she said, is very clean and where one can drink the water, but the issue of “calentamiento global” or global warming has moved her.

“One can actually do simple things like turning off lights and the refrigerator when not in use, dispose of garbage properly and recycle,” she said, adding that she shares this information with students in Cuenca.

The young women were at the Camsur Watersports Complex here over the weekend to shoot the swimsuit competition of the pageant produced by Carousel Productions Inc.

Peachy O. Veneracion, Carousel vice president and project director, said the pageant is a totally Filipino production that now has candidates from 85 countries, up from 43 when it started seven years ago. The finals is on Nov. 11 at the University of the Philippines Theater in Diliman, Quezon City
