Inadequacy of knowledge of the locals around the peatland, human intervention is inevitable, expediting climate change. In spite of that, there's still hope for a change. Embarked on a journey in the Caimpugan Peatland, unmasking drawbacks and raising awareness (kamalayan). To start with, our objective is to show the detrimental effects of the destruction of Peatlands specifically in Caimpugan Peatlands on Agusan del Sur. We immersed ourselves in the field to discover the dilemmas our locals face and gathered as much information as possible to put together an eye-opener film. Having a glimpse of their reality, we concluded a solution that makes sense. Having little to no information about Peatlands only leads to more human interventions. In order to call for action it is necessary to address the subject matter. In the hopes of mitigating climate change, we must first raise awareness among the mass.
Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).
Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).
At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.
Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)
While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:
Regarding profile removals and data corrections:
Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).
Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.
