Rainbow Warrior of Greenpeace to Arrive in Manila for Climate Justice Ship Tour

Wazzup Pilipinas!

This year, the Rainbow Warrior - the most iconic ship of global environment group Greenpeace – will set sail in the Philippines on a 20-day journey dubbed as Balangaw: The Climate Justice Ship Tour, in the name of the countless communities who are fighting for Climate Justice.

The Rainbow Warrior will be connecting people and their stories, as well as surfacing stories yet untold, about the impacts of the climate crisis on our rights as human beings – our right to life, the right to health, the right to our culture and way-of-life, the right to livelihood, the right to an adequate standard of living for one’s self and family, the right to a balanced and healthful ecology.

Like the balangaw (a Filipino term for “rainbow”) these people’s stories represent the different facets of life that make it light. They are diverse and they herald Hope.

Be part of the stories of hope and positive action as we become the generation that reclaims our right to a stable climate and safe environment.

The Rainbow Warrior has been the heart and soul of Greenpeace global campaigning for over 40 years. She’s been raided, rammed, shot at and bombed but the spirit of the Warrior is stronger than ever. After French Government agents bombed the first ship in Auckland harbour in 1985, she was laid to rest in Matauri Bay. Her replacement then picked up the baton and led from the front for over 21 years before being retired. Now the new Rainbow Warrior – the first purpose built Greenpeace ship - is leading the campaign for a cleaner, smarter, more innovative future.

Communities affected by climate change will welcome her as she arrives in Manila on February 14, 2018, Wednesday, which will be followed by a press conference onboard the Rainbow Warrior. The ship will stay in Manila until February 18.

Mattress and Bedding Items You Need to Redecorate Your Bedroom

Wazzup Pilipinas!

Shopping in the bedding department can be intimidating. The cost of the entire setup can horrify you including the costs of the bed frame, mattress, bed sheets, blankets and shipping costs. All these costs just increase your pressure to find a bedding decor perfect for your bedroom.

On an average, you spend about one-third of your day in your bed. Therefore, a sound sleep is necessary for your daily wear and tear. Sound sleep helps you in your daily tasks, but if you have an aching back due to your improper bedding setup, it can be the critical point of difference in your good and bad day.

Apart from facilitating your sleep, bedding setup is also instrumental in defining your bedroom decor. The different elements you must consider while buying your bedding include pricing, a variety of mattresses, different bed frames, bed sheets and other aspects.

Different elements to buy and the areas to focus on:

Mattress: There are many types of mattresses like Foam, Memory Foam, Hybrid, and Latex which vary in their material, features and comfort level. You can simplify your mattress buying process by checking the mattress reviews by Ross review site. As comfort is a subjective concept, you may prefer a particular type of mattress or else a hybrid model.

If comfort is your only preference and your idea of comfort is body contouring, then you can opt for a standard foam or memory foam mattress. However, if you want a breathable and airy feature, then this mattress is not advisable. If style & silky soft feel is your preference, but without contouring, then you can choose a latex mattress. If you have budget constraints, then select a spring based coil mattress.

If you have problems with back pain, and sciatica a hybrid mattress without contouring is advisable.

Bed Frame: There are different materials that you can choose while buying a bed frame like stainless steel, wood, iron, and metal.

If you have budget constraints, go for a simple wooden bed frame. While if you want a stylish modern look, you can buy a carbon fiber bed frame mixed with some metal base.

If you want a robust look, you can buy a timber made a wooden frame with plywood finish. While if you want durability with style and strength, you can buy a stainless steel or Iron made a bed frame.


Bed Sheets, Pillow Covers, and other Aspects:

If you want your bed to be a royal looking modern bed, you can opt for rich, vibrant color combinations for your bed sheets and pillow covers. While for a simple natural look, you can buy plain colored sheets and covers. In case of an industrial style look, you can choose metallic colors. If you want a next-gen look, you can also opt for geometric designs, stripes, and floral designs printed on your bed sheets and pillow covers.

Other aspects you can consider while buying a bed is the head and footrest patterns. If you like, you can buy them in curved form or else rectangular form. If you do not like any such designs, you can choose a straight flatbed design.


Conclusion

Thus, you might have now observed that buying various elements for bedroom furniture decor is not an easy task. You must list out your style and comfort requirements and accordingly buy your mattresses, bed frame, bed sheets, and pillow covers. If you want a modern look, you can buy a bed having vibrant colored sheets and covers with a hybrid mattress and a metal frame. A natural colored covering with coil mattress and a wooden frame is suitable for an old-fashioned bedroom decor.
