Not the end of the world: a reflection on the Philippine deluge

It's blog action day and the theme is Climate Change. To mark the day, I made this video reflection on the recent deluge in my native Philippines, caused by super typhoon Ketsana (locally known as Ondoy). I took liberties with photographs and videos posted on the internet for which many thanks to the various sources. The text I read from is an excerpt from the powerful re-imagining of the Noah's Ark story by Geraldine McCaughrean, Not the End of the World. The music is Dapithapon by Joey Ayala from his Lumad sa Syudad album. Please give to the Red Cross Philippine Foods Appeal http://www.redcross.org.uk/donatesection.asp?id=77029
