1. Managing Plastic Bags in Extreme Heat
Plastic bags and vinyl bags are not very resistant to heat, so it is necessary to pay attention to their storage conditions.
The melting point of general low-density polyethylene is around 100 degrees Celsius, but in reality, it deforms and deteriorates from a lower temperature, around 80 degrees Celsius.
Moreover, even if it does not reach 80 degrees, it will deform if exposed to direct sunlight for a long time.
Especially in extreme heat, if left outdoors, the quality will deteriorate, such as deformation and decrease in film strength.
Please store film products such as plastic bags indoors, avoiding direct sunlight and high temperatures.

2. Life in the Philippines Diary
In this issue, I will talk about diving.
During the three-day weekend in August, I went diving in Puerto Galera, Mindoro Island, a famous diving spot.
Although I was worried about rain because it was the rainy season, it was sunny all three days, and the conditions were very good.
This time, for the first time, I experienced a night dive, which is diving at night. It was completely dark underwater, and I couldn’t see anything without a flashlight. Therefore, the diving was very thrilling.
The waves were strong that day, and I was constantly being swept away. I just followed the instructor’s back so as not to get separated from the others. It was an unknown experience, and I was so desperate that I had no time to enjoy it. I would like to take on the challenge with a little more composure next time.
I was able to see sea turtles, glowing shells, shipwrecks, etc. through a total of nine dives this time, making it a very enjoyable diving tour.
Through this experience, I finally feel like I have graduated from being a beginner.
