HOLLYWOOD filmmaker Quentin Tarantino and Black Eyed Peas singer apl.de.ap have pledged to do their share to help the Philippines recover from the devastation left by tropical cyclones Ondoy (international codename: Ketsanag) and Pepeng (Parma).

Tarantino is donating the proceeds from the premiere of his film, “Inglorious Basterds”, to the victims of typhoon Ondoy. The film, which stars Brad Pitt, premiered on October 16.

While apl.de.ap performed in a benefit concert in Manila to raise funds and deliver much-needed aid. “I just want to tell everybody that my heart goes out to you guys and I will try my best to help out,” he said.

A Los Angeles resident whose real name is Allan Pineda Lindo, apl said he was concerned when he saw television footage of the devastation and decided to make a brief visit to Manila and perform at benefit concert.

There are a few times when you just can’t drop the ball on something. You either not lose or you lose big time. It looks almost like a step function.

For me that is climate change , we either do everything in our power to save or at least determine if we need saving or we lose, or worse our children lose big time.

This is the challenge of our time, we need to face it not with indifference or the like, but with a clear headed view that we are only caretakers of the only planet we can live on thus far.
